Description

I would like to define where the jspwiki.properties file is located outside of web.xml with system properties, for example in /etc/default/tomcat5.5 as:

JAVA_OPTS=" -Djspwiki.propertyfile=/opt/jspwiki/jspwiki.properties"

having this after deploying new jspwiki.war I neither have to recreate jspwiki.properties nor alter default web.xml

change is in single line:
