[jboss-dev-forums] [JBoss AS 7 Development] - Working directory for server processes not configurable

Rico Neubauer [https://community.jboss.org/people/MrEasy] created the discussion "Working directory for server processes not configurable" To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/771454#771454 -------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, Currently there seems no configuration option to set the working directory of the server-process(es). Host- and domain-controller both use system-property "user.dir", but for the server-process in org.jboss.as.host.controller.ManagedServer.ProcessAddTask#execute() the following is used to initiate the new process: processControllerClient.addProcess(serverProcessName, authKey, command.toArray(new String[command.size()]), environment.getHomeDir().getAbsolutePath(), env); where environment.getHomeDir().getAbsolutePath() donates the working directory for the new process. I JBoss with changed working directory and this seems not to introduce any issue, so I would request this becomming a configuration option. Do you agree/disagree and should I open a JIRA for it? Also see this discussion of one of my colleagues for general thoughts regarding the working directory: https://community.jboss.org/thread/203368 https://community.jboss.org/thread/203368.
