Location of default configuration.json file in Ubuntu Server installation

Hello! I have set up Orthanc in Unbuntu Server 20.04, using sudo apt install orthanc. The installed version is 1.5.8. The server is up and running and I can store to it from my DICOM client on another machine. But I cannot find the location where the default configuration.json is saved.

Where is the file saved by default? I cannot find this mentioned in any of the available online documentation.

Note, I am not really interested to generate a new config and specify it on the commandline as the existing configuration works, but I would like to tweak some settings.

TIA

Hi Chris,

By default, the Orthanc service reads its configuration from the /etc/orthanc/ folder.

THANK YOU! I hope that this information can be provided in the official documentation to help others.

Hi Chris,

Indeed that was not really documented. I’ve added a page in the book: https://book.orthanc-server.com/users/debian-packages.html#debian-packages

Best regards,
