How do I override the Sling/Jackrabbit configuration parameters when deployed in Glassfish v3

[Vincent Fazio <vi...@gmail.com>]

Where/how do I override the Jackrabbit configuration
parameters<http://jackrabbit.apache.org/jackrabbit-configuration.html#JackrabbitConfiguration-Configurationvariables>
when
I have the Sling distro deployed in Glassfish v3? I've tried setting
rep.home in the Glassfish Admin -> Enterprise Server -> System
Properties panel,
but it doesn't seem to have any affect.

   - Do I have the property name correct?
   - Is this not the right place to do this?

I've also tried setting the the *sling.home* property in the same manner
without success.

AFAIK, these parameters (rep.home, wsp.home, wsp.name) aren't meant to
be overridden - they're interpolated by Jackrabbit when parsing the
configuration file. What is it you are trying to accomplish?

To specify sling.home in a webapp distribution, you need to edit the
web.xml file. Take a look at the web.xml and you'll see an init
parameter commented out. Uncomment this and specify your own value.
