The solution I found ATM was: modifying H2StartStopListener, remove basedir param, rebuild and installed build-tools in maven local repo.
I'm wondering if there is a better way to get same result without source code modification of syncope-tools.

As you suggested I've changed core/src/test/resources/persistence.properties but I still can't set H2 basedir outside workdir. In core.log I get this exception: org.h2.jdbc.JdbcSQLException: IO Exception: <my-absolute-path> outside <standalone-install-dir>/apache-tomcat-7.0.53/work/Catalina/localhost/syncope-build-tools After some investigation I saw that build-tools project use a second instance of H2 and in the class H2StartStopListener it sets the H2 baseDir to work dir. I'm not an expert of H2 but it seems baseDir it's a system property that affects all instances. What's the best way to do you suggest to set basedir for syncope db outside work ?

This means you are directly running from the actual Syncope sources: I'd suggest you instead to generate your own project from SNAPSHOT archetype [1] and then run in embedded mode [2] via mvn -P embedded. > I'm wondering if is there a way to launch Syncope embed mode/debug profile > using a permanent h2 location. > I've tried adding a customized persistence.properties file in > syncope-console\src\resources specifying both absolute and relative path > outside target dir but it seems workdir it's needed. > > Is there a better way to do it or get the same result ? You can proceed similar to the standalone distribution [3]: only, you need to change core/src/test/resources/persistence.properties not core/src/main/resources/persistence.properties The former is used for tests and for embedded mode, the latter for production, e.g. for the WAR to be deployed into a real-world deployment.
