There are 2 scripts that involve setting environment variables. They are called the default script and the customized script in this document.
In Tomcat bundle and for Linux, they are:
$PLATFORM_TOMCAT_HOME/bin/setenv.sh which is defaulted in the eXo Platform package.
$PLATFORM_TOMCAT_HOME/bin/setenv-customize.sh which will be created by yourself, as explained later.
Their Windows versions are:
$PLATFORM_TOMCAT_HOME/bin/setenv.bat
$PLATFORM_TOMCAT_HOME/bin/setenv-customize.bat
Except their syntax, .sh and .bat versions are the same.
In JBoss, the scripts are:
$PLATFORM_JBOSS_HOME/bin/standalone.conf - the default script.
$PLATFORM_JBOSS_HOME/bin/standalone-customize.conf - the customized script.
$PLATFORM_JBOSS_HOME/bin/standalone.conf.bat - Windows version.
$PLATFORM_JBOSS_HOME/bin/standalone-customize.conf.bat - Windows version.
In Native Installer, they are:
$NATIVE_INSTALLER_DIR/apps/exoplatform/scripts/setenv.sh.
$NATIVE_INSTALLER_DIR/apps/exoplatform/scripts/setenv-customize.sh.
$NATIVE_INSTALLER_DIR/apps/exoplatform/scripts/setenv.bat.
$NATIVE_INSTALLER_DIR/apps/exoplatform/scripts/setenv-customize.bat.
Variables in the customized script, if they exist, override variables in the default script.
If the customized script does not exist, variables in the default script take effect.
For safety, you should not modify the default script. Any customization should be done by the customized script.
Rename a file in bin folder, as below:
For Tomcat or Native Installer in Linux: rename setenv-customize.sample.sh to setenv-customize.sh.
For Tomcat or Native Installer in Windows: rename setenv-customize.sample.bat to setenv-customize.bat.
For JBoss in Linux: rename standalone-customize.sample.conf to standalone-customize.conf.
For JBoss in Windows: rename standalone-customize.sample.conf.bat to standalone-customize.conf.bat.
Find the variable that you want to customize, uncomment it
(by removing '#' in the .sh file or "REM" in the .bat file) and edit its value.
Use # to comment out a line in .sh,
and REM in .bat. To comment out a block:
In .sh, use the pair of :<<LABEL and LABEL.
For example:
:<<old_configurations EXO_JVM_SIZE_MAX="1g" EXO_JVM_SIZE_MIN="1g" old_configurations
In .bat, use the pair of GOTO LABEL and :LABEL.
For example:
GOTO old_configurations SET EXO_JVM_SIZE_MAX=1g SET EXO_JVM_SIZE_MIN=512m :old_configurations
