Mingle Data And Config directories

At times, while working with Mingle you are needed to access and move Mingle data present on the filesystem. For purposes of this article, we will refer to the location where Mingle is installed as 'mingle_install_dir', the data directory as 'mingle_data_dir', and the config directory as 'mingle_config_dir'.

1.  mingle_data_dir contains all the attachments, project and user icons, search index . To locate the mingle_data_dir for your instance, please navigate to the Mingle status page ( i.e http://<Mingle_URL>/status) and look for the JVM argument '-Dmingle.dataDir'.

for example: -Dmingle.dataDir=/var/lib/mingle/data

2. mingle_config_dir is where Mingle will store project configuration files such as database.yml. If unspecified, this defaults to ${mingle.dataDir}/config

To locate the mingle_config_dir for your instance, please navigate to the Mingle status page ( i.e http://<Mingle_URL>/status) and look for the JVM argument '--Dmingle.configDir'.

for example: -Dmingle.configDir=/var/lib/mingle/data/config
