Re: [jboss-as7-dev] Can't override the path "jboss.server.log.dir" in config file

To override jboss.server.log.dir you need to start the server with ./standalone.sh -Djboss.server.log.dir=/some/where See the following location for more information https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS7/Admin+Guide#AdminGuide-Systempr... http://community.jboss.org/en/jbossas/as7_users?view=discussions I'll check with the author about the wording here.
