V3.2 how is idp.home set

[Stefan Santesson]

I have installations where I run more than one IdP on the server, and thus I also had a need to use an alternate folder.

Running ubuntu and tomcat and the folder shibboleth321-idp, this is how I got it to work:

In web.xml I added:
    <context-param>
        <param-name>idp.home</param-name>
        <param-value>/opt/shibboleth321-idp</param-value>
    </context-param>



In my tomcat bin folder I added/edited the file setenv.sh to include the following line:
export JAVA_OPTS="-Didp.home=/opt/shibboleth321-idp"


I’m still not sure the web.xml edit is needed. I tried that first but it was not sufficient. I then added the setenv.sh line and it worked.

For other containers, I don’t know the answer.
