Support for relocating karaf.history file
-----------------------------------------
Key: KARAF-798
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-798
Project: Karaf
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: karaf-shell
Reporter: Troy Waldrep
We have a servicemix-based product that has to perform a setuid to a
lower-privileged user while running on linux. We've accounted for most
permissions-based issues that result from doing this by ensuring that the
lower-privileged user has write access to the necessary files under the data
directory.
Unfortunately, we can't do this with karaf.history since it is written to the
home directory of the user that started the stack (root in this case). The
lower-privileged usually doesn't have *any* visibility into this directory, let
alone write privileges. If a configuration option was provided to specify the
location of the karaf.history file (or the option to not even write or expect
to find one), then we could treat this file like any other.
