ArangoDB Server Temp Options

Path

temp.path

Path for temporary files. ArangoDB will use this for storing temporary files, forextracting data from uploaded zip files (e.g. for Foxx services) and other things.Ideally the temporary path is set to an instance-specific subdirectory of the operating system’s temporary directory.To avoid data loss the temporary path should not overlap with any directories that contain important data, for example, the instance’s database directory.

If the temporary path is set to the same directory as the instance’s database directory,a startup error will be logged from ArangoDB v3.4.8 onwards.
