Where to place jstatd.all.policy

I'd like to grant permissions to my jstatd on linux
The corresponding manual reads:

To use this policy, copy the text into a file called jstatd.all.policy and run the jstatd server as follows:

jstatd -J-Djava.security.policy=jstatd.all.policy

But where on linux should I place this jstatd.all.policy file?

Solution

  • As far as i remember you have to create the file in the same location as jstatd (...jdk/bin/) and it should work.

    Update: From here:

    The user policy file is by default located at

    user.home/.java.policy (Solaris/Linux)

    user.home\.java.policy (Windows)

    Note: user.home refers to the value of the system property named "user.home", which specifies the user's home directory.
