System Properties for Running the Server
Various aspects of TeamCity's behavior can be customized through a set of JVM options. The options can be specified using the -D parameter passed to the JVM running the TeamCity server or agent. e.g.
 |
- If you run the server using the runAll or teamcity-server scripts, you can set the options via TEAMCITY_SERVER_OPTS environment variable.
- If you run the server as Windows service, run Tomcat's service configuration editor by executing the command in <TeamCity home>\bin directory and then editing the Java Options on the Java tab (for more information see Tomcat 6 documentation).
|
You will need to restart the server for the option to take effect.

Other Server Configurations
Turning off code highlighting in the web diff
The highlighting uses a third-party native library that may not be available for your platform. If TeamCity fails to cope with this or the library causes unstable behavior on the server, you can disable the use of this library.
To disable the Colorer library:
- Edit <TeamCity Home>\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\buildServerSpringWeb.xml and change the "enableColorer" property value to false by
locating the following fragment:
and changing it to
- Restart the server.
