hi everyone, i’m debugging an issue where a colleague’s BOOT_JVM_OPTIONS env var is being ignored

did any of you come across something like this?

we can see it in (System/getenv)

but… seems to be ignored

@dazld hm, how are you running System/getenv?

also, what system/bash version is your colleague on?

@alandipert @dazld's colleague here the bash version I'm running:

api (benchmark) $ bash -version
GNU bash, version 3.2.57(1)-release (x86_64-apple-darwin18)
Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

we’re looking at (System/getProperties) too

the jvm flags are just ignored

and the BOOT_JVM_OPTIONS variable is set to the same thing on both your machines… but it just doesn’t work on @claudiu511’s machine?

Yep

That’s exactly it

It’s super weird

Set the properties directly and everything works, but for whatever reason, the Java process that boot starts didn’t see them

There’s something fishy about how boot is starting java on claudiu’s machine

It sees the environment var but those options aren’t set

He’s using sdkman if that’s relevant

What version of boot on each machine?

2.8.3
