This is the behaviour those of us running non-OSX bump into and it usually 
means that if FELIX_HOME isn't specified other useful parameters might have 
been forgotten as well. It is also I handy feature for making sure you don't 
run as the wrong user (running it by accident as root instead of user 
matterhorn)

Subject: [Opencast Matterhorn] Make the start script complain if FELIX_HOME

 undefined #proposal

The current start script comes with the following piece of code in it:

if [ ! -z "$FELIX_HOME" ]; then
  FELIX_HOME="$FELIX_HOME"
else
  FELIX_HOME="/Applications/Matterhorn"
fi

Even though I like the default value (for no apparent reason, of course :-) I 
don't think that it's a great idea. Rather than using a default value, we could 
do two things:

1) Come up with crazy scripting to try and find possible locations for 
Matterhorn

2) Have the startup script complain about the lack of a definition for 
FELIX_HOME.

As you can tell from the email's subjest, I am proposing to change the start 
script to fail if FELIX_HOME is not set (  MH-8278).

Thanks,
Tobias
