-`MIN_TIMEOUT`: **10s**: These options control how often notification endpoint is polled to update the notification count. On page load the notification count will be checked after `MIN_TIMEOUT`. The timeout will increase to `MAX_TIMEOUT` by `TIMEOUT_STEP` if the notification count is unchanged. Set MIN_TIMEOUT to 0 to turn off.
-`EVENT_SOURCE_UPDATE_TIME`: **10s**: This setting determines how often the database is queried to update notification counts. If the browser client supports `EventSource`, it will be used in preference to polling notification endpoint.
-`REDIRECT_OTHER_PORT`: **false**: If true and `PROTOCOL` is https, allows redirecting http requests on `PORT_TO_REDIRECT` to the https port Gitea listens on.
-`PORT_TO_REDIRECT`: **80**: Port for the http redirection service to listen on. Used when `REDIRECT_OTHER_PORT` is true.

-`STARTUP_TIMEOUT`: **0**: Shutsdown the server if startup takes longer than the provided time. On Windows setting this sends a waithint to the SVC host to tell the SVC host startup may take some time. Please note startup is determined by the opening of the listeners - HTTP/HTTPS/SSH. Indexers may take longer to startup and can have their own timeouts.
-`SSL_MODE`: **disable**: SSL/TLS encryption mode for connecting to the database. This option is only applied for PostgreSQL and MySQL.
- Valid values for MySQL:
-`true`: Enable TLS with verification of the database server certificate against its root certificate. When selecting this option make sure that the root certificate required to validate the database server certificate (e.g. the CA certificate) is on the system certificate store of both the database and Gitea servers. See your system documentation for instructions on how to add a CA certificate to the certificate store.
-`false`: Disable TLS.
-`disable`: Alias for `false`, for compatibility with PostgreSQL.
-`skip-verify`: Enable TLS without database server certificate verification. Use this option if you have self-signed or invalid certificate on the database server.
-`prefer`: Enable TLS with fallback to non-TLS connection.
- Valid values for PostgreSQL:
-`disable`: Disable TLS.
-`require`: Enable TLS without any verifications.
-`verify-ca`: Enable TLS with verification of the database server certificate against its root certificate.

-`CHARSET`: **utf8**: For MySQL only, either "utf8" or "utf8mb4", default is "utf8". NOTICE: for "utf8mb4" you must use MySQL InnoDB > 5.6. Gitea is unable to check this.
-`MAX_OPEN_CONNS`**0**: Database maximum open connections - default is 0, meaning there is no limit.
-`MAX_IDLE_CONNS`**2**: Max idle database connections on connnection pool, default is 2 - this will be capped to `MAX_OPEN_CONNS`.
-`CONN_MAX_LIFETIME`**0 or 3s**: Sets the maximum amount of time a DB connection may be reused - default is 0, meaning there is no limit (except on MySQL where it is 3s - see #6804ᮟ).
Please see #8540⁑ for further discussion of the appropriate values for `MAX_OPEN_CONNS`, `MAX_IDLE_CONNS`&`CONN_MAX_LIFETIME` and their

- Queues by default come with a dynamically scaling worker pool. The following settings configure this:
-`WORKERS`: **1**: Number of initial workers for the queue.
-`MAX_WORKERS`: **10**: Maximum number of worker go-routines for the queue.
-`BLOCK_TIMEOUT`: **1s**: If the queue blocks for this time, boost the number of workers - the `BLOCK_TIMEOUT` will then be doubled before boosting again whilst the boost is ongoing.
-`BOOST_TIMEOUT`: **5m**: Boost workers will timeout after this long.
-`BOOST_WORKERS`: **5**: This many workers will be added to the worker pool if there is a boost.
-`ONLY_ALLOW_PUSH_IF_GITEA_ENVIRONMENT_SET`: **true**: Set to `false` to allow local users to push to gitea-repositories without setting up the Gitea environment. This is not recommended and if you want local users to push to gitea repositories you should set the environment appropriately.
-`INTERNAL_TOKEN`: **\<random at every install if no uri set\>**: Secret used to validate communication within Gitea binary.
-`INTERNAL_TOKEN_URI`: **<empty>**: Instead of defining internal token in the configuration, this configuration option can be used to give Gitea a path to a file that contains the internal token (example value: `file:/etc/gitea/internal_token`)
-`PASSWORD_COMPLEXITY`: **lower,upper,digit,spec**: Comma separated list of character classes required to pass minimum complexity. If left empty or no valid values are specified, the default values will be used. Possible values are:
- Using opportunistic TLS via STARTTLS on port 587 is recommended per RFC 6409.
-`IS_TLS_ENABLED` : **false** : Forcibly use TLS to connect even if not on a default SMTPS port.
- Note, if the port ends with `465` SMTPS/SMTP over TLS will be used despite this setting.
- Otherwise if `IS_TLS_ENABLED=false` and the server supports `STARTTLS` this will be used. Thus if `STARTTLS` is preferred you should set `IS_TLS_ENABLED=false`.
- Please note: authentication is only supported when the SMTP server communication is encrypted with TLS (this can be via `STARTTLS`) or `HOST=localhost`. See [Email Setup]({{< relref "doc/usage/email-setup.en-us.md" >}}) for more information.
-`REPOSITORY_AVATAR_FALLBACK`: **none**: How Gitea deals with missing repository avatars
- none = no avatar will be displayed

-`ROUTER`: **console**: The mode or name of the log the router should log to. (If you set this to `,` it will log to default gitea logger.)
NB: You must `REDIRECT_MACARON_LOG` and have `DISABLE_ROUTER_LOG` set to `false` for this option to take effect. Configure each mode in per mode log subsections `\[log.modename.router\]`.
-`ENABLE_ACCESS_LOG`: **false**: Creates an access.log in NCSA common log format, or as per the following template
-`ACCESS`: **file**: Logging mode for the access logger, use a comma to separate values. Configure each mode in per mode log subsections `\[log.modename.access\]`. By default the file mode will log to `$ROOT_PATH/access.log`. (If you set this to `,` it will log to the default gitea logger.)
-`Identity`: the SignedUserName or `"-"` if not logged in.
