One of things you'll need to work out is which web profile configuration is actually in use! There are quite a few delivered options including:

• DEV
• TEST
• PROD
• KIOSK

You typically choose the web profile configuration to be used when installing the PeopleSoft PIA. This is stored in a file called configuration.properties but contrary to what PeopleBooks might tell you, this file doesn't always live in PS_HOME\webserv. In fact if you're using Oracle Application Server (OAS) it will most likely be located somewhere like this (adjust your slashes accordingly):

{OAS_HOME}\j2ee\{Application_Name}\applications\<Application_Name>\PORTAL\WEB-INF\psftdocs\ps
