[arquillian-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ARQ-866) Allow catalina.base to be configured separately from catalina.home in the Tomcat managed adapters
Dan Allen created ARQ-866:
-----------------------------
Summary: Allow catalina.base to be configured separately from catalina.home
in the Tomcat managed adapters
Key: ARQ-866
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ARQ-866
Project: Arquillian
Issue Type: Enhancement
Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
Components: Tomcat Containers
Affects Versions: tomcat_1.0.0.CR3
Reporter: Dan Allen
The Tomcat managed container adapter assumes that catalina.base is the same as
catalina.home.
{code}
String absolutePath = new File(CATALINA_HOME).getAbsolutePath();
...
cmd.add("-Dcatalina.base=" + absolutePath);
cmd.add("-Dcatalina.home=" + absolutePath);
{code}
However, this is not necessary true. For instance, when using Tomcat from Eclipse, the
catalina.base (which includes the configuration files) is managed inside the Eclipse
workspace. This allows the developer to modify Tomcat settings without affecting the
system installation.
The fix for this problem is to add a configuration property named "catalinaBase"
and honor if it's set when building the startup script.
This affects all the Tomcat managed containers (5, 6 and 7).
