Hi Pierre, By the way if you don't want to / cannot copy the .gradle folder then I'm afraid you have to build a new jar yourself because the generated Jar contains the absolute Class-Path entries for all other jars required. If you want to put them in a different folder then you have to regenerate the Jar with the correct classpath entries (or alternatively include them in your -cp arguments). It's a few lines of code in Gradle but you should be familiar with configurations and iterations and some closure logic. So I think your safest bet is to just copy the .gradle folder to your production environment.
With that being said, I find the requirements for your production environment quite draconian! I haven't seen anything like that before. I can spin off a droplet in DigitalOcean for 10$ a month that can do pretty much everything I need. If you're not stuck with them I think it would be a good idea to consider other vendors.
