Job System Folder
The server stores data in your GeoDict settings folder, which by default is located here:
- Windows: C:\Users\Username\GeoDict2025\JobSystem\
- Linux: /home/Username/.geodict2025/JobSystem/

|
Note! Username is the login name of the user and hostname is the name of the computer.
|
The JobSystem folder contains the following subfolders:
- The clients folder contains the username@hostname_cert.pem files of all machines that can act as a client for this server. Using the Add Clients button adds the selected client certificates to this folder automatically.
- The id folder contains two files: username@hostname_cert.pem and username@hostname_key.pem, which are used to identify this machine. GeoDict versions prior to 2024 Service Pack 1 used a different naming scheme for the certificates and are therefore incompatible to the newer versions.
- The projects folder is the default location for all data and computational results of a running job queue server.
- The serverlogs folder contains the log output by the server, which is also shown in the terminal window of the server.
- The servers folder contains the username@hostname_cert.pem files of all machines that can act as a job queue server for this client. Using the Add Servers button adds the selected server certificates to this folder automatically.

|
Important! We recommend performing all actions (e.g. exchanging certificates or accessing job results) directly through GeoDict, rather than manually through the JobSystem folder.

On server machines, a huge amount of data may be stored in the projects folder since it contains all simulation files for jobs on the server. Therefore, you can select another location for this folder. Select Settings → Settings in the menu bar. Go to the Job Queue tab and Browse for a different location. Be aware that you have to do this before the job queue server is started, otherwise the default location is used. If the job queue server is started from the command line, you must always specify a location in the option --job-server=<project folder>.
