moving the bamboo-home folder?

[Nick Hynes]

Ive installed bamboo on a windows server as a service, and would like to move the bamboo-home folder from C:\Users\<username>\bamboo-home to another location. How do I do this?

Hi,

This is the extract from documentation. Hope it helps.

Set up your Bamboo home directory — this is the directory where Bamboo will store its root configuration data. To do this, edit the file named bamboo-init.properties in the <Bamboo installation directory>/atlassian-bamboo/WEB-INF/classes/ directory. In this file, insert the property "bamboo.home", with an absolute path to your Bamboo home directory. Your file should look something like this:

bamboo.home=C:/test/bamboo-home
Alternatively, you can specify an environment variable 'BAMBOO_HOME' which specifies the absolute path to your {BAMBOO_HOME} directory. Bamboo will check if an environment variable is defined.

The environment variable does not work (or the name of the variable is wrong in the post above).

the xml file worked.
