Are you using tomcat or jetty?
Not every system admin thing can be set as environmental variable, so I am
going to check the code:
https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Ageoserver%2Fgeoserver+ALLOW_ENV_PARAMETRIZATION&type=code
It only shows checking the ALLOW_ENV_PARAMETRIZATION system property:
allowEnvParametrization =
Boolean.valueOf(System.getProperty("ALLOW_ENV_PARAMETRIZATION", "false"));
In general you can configure GeoServer as a system admin using:
- Environmental variable - popular for docker containers
- Java System Properties - Use -DALLOW_ENV_PARAMETRIZATION=true when
starting up tomcat.
I do this by defining the environmental variable GEOSERVER_REQUIRE_FILE
or JAVA_OPTS in Tomcat bin/setenv.sh, bin/setenv.bat or similar for jetty.
- Web Application Context Parameter - I may be the only one who likes
this: conf/Catalina/localhost/geonetwork.xml
- Web Application Context Parameter - webapps/geoserver/WEB-INF/web.xml
- these are the defaults (you can edit but they are lost when upgrading)
Here are some instructions for setting GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR which is similar:
https://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/datadirectory/setting.html#java-system-property
I notice the above docs advise people to edit bin/setclasspath.sh .. I
prefer creating a file bin/setenv.sh (which I can keep when upgrading
tomcat).
Following the geoserver production considerations and adding your
ALLOW_ENV_PARAMETRIZATION setting gives me this.
1. Create bin/startup.sh in your tomcat installation
1. Contents of file are:
#!/bin/sh
# Prepend JVM Options
CATALINA_OPTS="-XX:SoftRefLRUPolicyMSPerMB=36000 -XX:-UsePerfData
${CATALINA_OPTS}"
# Append system properties
CATALINA_OPTS="${CATALINA_OPTS} -Dorg.geotools.referencing.forceXY=true"
# See
https://docs.geoserver.org/main/en/user/datadirectory/configtemplate.html
CATALINA_OPTS="${CATALINA_OPTS} -DALLOW_ENV_PARAMETRIZATION=true"
Enjoy using GeoServer
