Setting Default Directories

You can specify the default directory used for file browsers and output by selecting Set Directory or Set Server Directory from the File menu.

• Set Directory. You can use this option to set the working directory. The default working directory is based on the installation path of your version of IBM® SPSS® Modeler or from the command line path used to launch IBM SPSS Modeler. In local mode, the working directory is the path used for all client-side operations and output files (if they are referenced with relative paths).
• Set Server Directory. The Set Server Directory option on the File menu is enabled whenever there is a remote server connection. Use this option to specify the default directory for all server files and data files specified for input or output. The default server directory is $CLEO/data, where $CLEO is the directory in which the Server version of IBM SPSS Modeler is installed. Using the command line, you can also override this default by using the -server_directory flag with the modelerclient command line argument.
