publish.usespublishrules=<AuthApp>
publish.republishonepmdocumentchange=true

  • The Authoring Application, in this case PROE, is added to the publish.usesPublishRules property in wvs.properties, but no publish rules XML configuration exists in the containers context hierarchy, as seen in the Visualization Configuration Administration UI
