The Crowd Home directory is where Crowd will store its configuration information. If you are using the embedded HSQL database, supplied for evaluation purposes, Crowd will also store its database in this directory. (Note however that the CrowdID database will be in the installation directory, not the Home directory.) To specify the Crowd Home directory:

• Open the crowd-init.properties file. This is found at <crowd_install_directory>/crowd-webapp/WEB-INF/classes/crowd-init.properties
• Choose the appropriate line in the file, depending upon your operating system (see below).
• Remove the # at the beginning of the line.
• Enter the name of the directory you want Crowd to use as its Home directory. For example,

  • Windows の場合

    crowd.home=c:/data/crowd-home
    

    Note: On Windows, make sure you use forward slashes as shown above, not backward slashes.

  • On Mac and UNIX-based systems:

    crowd.home=/var/crowd-home
    

    重要

    Please, ensure that the Crowd Home directory will not match the Crowd installation directory AND it is writable by the user executing the initialization script.

• Save the crowd-init.properties file.
