[jira] [Created] (ARTEMIS-3334) documentation gives no clue on how
to place the jgroups config file in the classpath
Erwin Dondorp created ARTEMIS-3334:
--------------------------------------
Summary: documentation gives no clue on how to place the jgroups config file in the classpath
Key: ARTEMIS-3334
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3334
Project: ActiveMQ Artemis
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.17.0
Reporter: Erwin Dondorp
on page [https://activemq.apache.org/components/artemis/documentation/latest/clusters.html,] it is mentioned that the jgroups configuration file must be in the classpath.
the text is: "Make sure the file is in the java resource path so that Apache ActiveMQ Artemis can load it."
however, the classpath is not easy to adjust as is completely replaced inside the startup script {{bin/artemis}}.
The possibility is to use {{DEBUG_ARGS}} instead, but one must then also specify {{$ARTEMIS_HOME/lib/artemis-boot.jar}} again as otherwise that one is no longer in the classpath. so far, I could not find another way to adjust the classpath.
It is true that the "artemis-boot" package builds a full classpath, but that classpath consists only of the JAR and ZIP files that it can find.
Note that the examples properly work, because these do not use the regular startup scripts, but rely on maven to manage the classpath.
my proposal: add a new fixed directory (e.g. \{{ARTEMIS_HOME/config}}? and/or {{ARTEMIS_HOME/_instance_/config}}?) which is always added to the classpath. the jgroups configuration file can then simply be placed in that directory when it is needed. that should then also be mentioned in the documentation.
