When you installed Bamboo, you specified two directories:

  • Bamboo installation directory — This is the directory where the Bamboo application files are installed. (The default location depends on your operating system: Windows, Unix/Linux, Solaris or Mac OS.)
  • Bamboo home directory — This is the directory where Bamboo's configuration data and build results are stored. (The default location depends on your operating system: Windows, Unix/Linux, Solaris or Mac OS.) This directory can grow quite large when managing large quantities of plans and builds.

The most important contents of these two directories are described below.

Bamboo home directory

  • bamboo.cfg.xml — This is Bamboo's core configuration file. It includes the configuration information for connecting to Bamboo's database.
  • database/ — This directory contains Bamboo's embedded HSQL database. The database contains plan configurations and some build results data.
  • index/ — This directory contains the build results index. Removing or modifying files in this directory may corrupt build history. Rebuilding the search index from Bamboo's global administration screen (see 7.1 Re-indexing Data) will completely regenerate the contents of this directory.
  • xml-data/ — This directory contains all files relating to source repositories and build results.

Bamboo installation directory

  • webapp/WEB-INF/classes/bamboo-init.properties — This file tells Bamboo where to find the Bamboo home directory. The location of this directory is specified by the Bamboo administrator as described in the Bamboo Installation Guide, and can be viewed as described in 8.2 Viewing Bamboo's System Information.
  • bamboo.sh * — This is the startup file for Bamboo Standalone under Unix/Linux, Solaris and Mac OS.
  • bamboo.bat * — This is the startup file for Bamboo Standalone under Windows.
  • bamboo.pid * — This file, under Linux, contains the Process ID for the running instance of Bamboo.
  • conf/wrapper.conf * — This file provides the means to configure Bamboo on startup, when using the Java Service wrapper under Linux or Windows.
  • scripts/ — This directory contains operational scripts, including scripts for CVS and SVN triggers.
  • wrapper/ — This directory contains the necessary files to start Bamboo using the Java Service wrapper (see the Mac and Linux installation guides).
  • logs/--- This directory contains logs written by the Java Service wrapper. (Note: The Bamboo server logs are written to the root of the installation directory. Build logs are stored in the xml-data/builds/ sub-directories.)
  • webapp/ — This directory  contains all the Bamboo server application files.
  • webapp/WEB-INF/lib/ — This directory is used when deploying Bamboo plugins. It also contains other libraries required by Bamboo.
  • webapp/WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties — This is Bamboo's logging configuration file.
  • webapp/WEB-INF/classes/jetty.xml * — This is the configuration file for Jetty, the application server that is bundled with Bamboo Standalone. The configuration format is simply a mapping from XML to Java. With this format you can call the methods defined in the Jetty Javadoc to configure the server.

* This applies to the Bamboo Standalone distribution. The configuration may differ for the Bamboo EAR-WAR distribution.
