JAVA_OPTS

[Maiia Zbitnieva]

Good day! Could you please help me to install quickly Dspace 6.0 binary release. Promt me please where (in which file) to set the following parameter JAVA_OPTS:

"You need to ensure that Tomcat uses UTF-8 as its default file encoding for international character support. So ensure in your startup scripts (etc) that the following environment variable is set: JAVA_OPTS="-Xmx512M -Xms64M -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8"" 

With respect.

depends on your OS.

Linux usually keeps it in /etc, Debian based (Debian, Ubuntu) in

/etc/defaults/tomcat8

Else this thread might help:

I use ubuntu 18 and tomcat 9. I couldn`t found file /etc/default/tomcat9. But I found in Internet the following recommendation: "/etc/systemd/system/tomcat.service". Is that right?

Don't know Ubuntu 18, sorry.
You might get problems anyway with tomcat9 and Java newer than Version 8
- you can run DSpace with Java 11, but can't install presumably.

I use Java 8 as indicated in DSpace installation instruction. An I use Tomcat 9 because there isn't restriction in DSpace documentation on version of Tomcat. Why did say that problems can be with version 9 of  Tomcat?

Hello,

if you don't define $JAVA_OPTS it's set in the start script (https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/dspace/bin/dspace#L36-L40).

Kind regards,

Paul Münch
