[JIRA] [core] (JENKINS-20682) Starting Jenkins with defined --webroot or JETTY_HOME not working.

Sat, 08 Feb 2014 11:22:50 -0800

The Jetty documentation shows how the location of the temporary directories can be controlled
http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/documentation/current/ref-temporary-directories.html

I just did a quick experiment by adding a call to WebAppContext#setTempDirectory() in HostConfiguration#create()
https://github.com/jenkinsci/winstone/blob/master/src/java/winstone/HostConfiguration.java

i.e. 

wac.setTempDirectory(new File("/var/cache/jenkins/temp"));


When jenkins.war was built with a version of winstone.jar containing that the Jetty temporary directory moved away from /tmp into /var/cache/jenkins/temp



That isn't a full solution to the problem because it needs hooking into the --webroot argument to jenkins.



There are other issues relating to how it works with multiple webapps (they should not share the same temp directory) and the usage of the temp folder is slightly different (it uses a /webapp subdirectory) to the old native winstone behaviour.



I don't know the internal plumbing of Winstone/Jenkins well enough to make a stab at a full fix for this.
