    Hello @hzh-15010

    You can export RFA configuration on Windows as an xml file using config_editor.bat:

    Then, modify the xml file for Linux machine if you require. Then, save the file.

    Next, upload the xml file on Linux machine.

    Then, import the xml file into Linux machine using config_loader.jar in <RFA package>/Tools as the following command:

     java -jar config_loader.jar -file <xml file>

    Hello @hzh-15010

    Please be informed that RFA7.2.x is end-of-life and no longer support. Any problems would be investigated on supported version only(RFA7.6 or higher). Please refer to API Compatibility Matrix which shows which versions of RFA are supported with which infrastructure and OS compiler versions etc.

    You can download the latest RFA Java package, 8.1.2.L1, from Downloads of RFA Java page. If you have any difficulties downloading the package, please contact rdc.administrator@thomsonreuters.com

    Please refer to the migration guide for upgrading RFA Java. The guide is in <RFA Java package>\Docs\WebDocs\wwhelp\wwhimpl\js\html\wwhelp.htm in API Migration and Schedule of Deprecated Interfaces section under Documentation Portal-> Helpful Hints as shown below:

    If you want, you can have your configuration in a in-plain-sight configuration file next to your application .. instead of having it in a hidden file location (Linux) or Registry (Windows). The whole idea to use an external tool to define this kind of configuration, and then keeping it in some hidden place, is just not very good. (in Refinitiv's defense the idea has later been abandoned with RFA's successor)


    Just follow the steps here:

    There are specific steps for RFA in the above link.
