> Startup: setenv vs setenv.sh
> -----------------------------
>
> Key: JAMES-2355
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-2355
> Project: James Server
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0, master, 3.0.1
> Reporter: phansson
> Priority: Major
>
> On Unix/Linux using binary distribution of Apache James 3.0.1:
>
> The shell script {{james}} will look for {{setenv}} and source it if it exists. However, on the disk, the file is named {{setenv.sh}}. This means that the setenv file has no effect in an out-of-the-box install of James.
> Current workaround is to rename {{setenv.sh}} to {{setenv}} during first time setup.
> If the bundled {{setenv.sh}} file is only meant as a template (is it?), then it should be named appropriately and it should have instructions in it for how to make it take effect.
> On another note: The idea of having a setenv file which can affect startup is a good one. Indeed Tomcat does the same. However, I've never understood why this file is found in the /bin directory and not the /conf directory. This is indeed configuration. When you update to a newer version of James you have to remember to bring this file with you. Well, well, this 'deficiency' is shared with Tomcat, so I guess it has become kind of accepted. Except by me. :)
