I don't know about Jetty (bundled or installed indepdendently) but on
Unixoids it's merely a question of file permissions, i.e.:
If the user your container runs as does not have permissions to create
a directory (or write to it) then give it those permissions.

For comparison/inspiration: Here's an example for IDPv3 with Tomact8
on Debian 8 -- so clearly *not* directly applicable to your case --
where Tomcat runs as non-root:

That's just for the IDP to function, but it seems you'll need to take
care of Jetty's "tmp" directory, too, in a simiar way.
