Bamboo ant task, -Djava.io.tmpdir=/tmp/BAMTST-IBST-BL is not passed correctly during the build

[David_Ren]

I've got a bamboo ant task, runs the build.xml and pass the java.io.tmpdir into the build.

You can see the bamboo command line the parameter is set:

command	07-Jun-2016 22:29:03	Beginning to execute external process for build 'Bamboo-Test - Integration Build - Sales - Test - Build Business Logic #31 (BAMTST-IBST-BL-31)'\n ... 
running command line: \n/qad/web/server/ant-1.8.4/bin/ant -Djava.io.tmpdir=/tmp/BAMTST-IBST-BL -f build.xml buildbl -v\n ... in: /dr01/bamboo/xml-data/build-dir/BAMTST-IBST-BL\n ... using extra environment variables: \nbamboo_capability_system_jdk_JDK_1_6_32=/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_33-

But I've checked the log that in fact, the build take java.io.tmpdir to /tmp and I guess its a default config from somewhere.

So do you guys nows why this can not pass correctly?

Also, I cannot find the place where this -Djava.io.tmpdir is configured, its not in Plan Configuration -> Tasks

and also cannot found in global variables, task->requirement, task->artifact.

Following is a bamboo partial log, at the command line, the java.io.tmpdir is corrcet.

But After executing external process,  at the beginning of the build, it try to check if the java.io.tmpdir has the get-lib.xml and you can see its 

/tmp/devel/get-libs.xml, but it should be /tmp/QRA-QRADSALESINT-BL/devel/get-libs.xml

[David_Ren]

It seems that at the beginning of the build, the java io tmp is not passed correctly.

Is there document that how bamboo uses the jvm? Or how to do the correct pass?

[David_Ren]

Hi @Peter, I'm not sure what the target name is correspondent to fork. But the top level build.xml do import other build.xml and call the target in there.  

Besides, I find the even in the top level build.xml, the java.io.tmpdir is not correct.

[Peter Harsfalvi]

This usually happens when the parent jvm forks into a separate jvm, and the system properties are not passed over. Please check the build.xml. Does it fork the build process? The solution is to pass the system property to the child jvm as well.

[David_Ren]

For further information:

Build.xml has this

coli49:92 /qad/local/90day_backups/user/dr2/bamboo-test-qra-sales-int $ grep -irn "java\.io\.tmpdir" *
build.xml:30:    <mkdir dir="${java.io.tmpdir}/${user.name}"/>
build.xml:34:        dest="${java.io.tmpdir}/${user.name}/get-libs.xml"
build.xml:38:    <include file="${java.io.tmpdir}/${user.name}/get-libs.xml"/>

Build log shows, as devel is for user.name:

build	07-Jun-2016 22:14:02	    [mkdir] Skipping /tmp/devel because it already exists.
build	07-Jun-2016 22:14:02	      [get] Destination already exists (skipping): /tmp/devel/get-libs.xml
build	07-Jun-2016 22:14:02	Importing file /tmp/devel/get-libs.xml from /dr01/bamboo/xml-data/build-dir/BAMTST-IBST-BL/build.xml

I also find this, not sure if is related. But my build is not a maven build.
