Sergey B. updated JAMES-3019:
-----------------------------
Description:
We need to have a single value from which all relative urls are evaluated. Now
some urls pointing to the same places are specified by different values. For
example var directory for database storage is presented by the value '../var/'
in database.url property, while the same directory for MailRepository is
designated by 'file://var/.
It's confusing. I suggest we make an improvement.
# There must be a single value of basedir, from which all relative urls are
evaluated.
# Algorithm of evaluation of default basedir value must be documented.
# Default basedir must be at top level of all resources. I. e. there must be
no paths like ../.
# Effective basedir must be logged.
# There must be an opportunity for users to specify their own basedir on
server startup.
