The critical requirement is that the URIs in the
target repository configuration point to the
correct remote location for the feeds.
- This example uses a location outside of the build
- system's deploy directory.
- Realize that it is possible to run a web server
- that gets the databases from
- deploy directory where the image
- was built.
+ Tip
+ For development purposes, you can point the web
+ server to the build system's
+ deploy directory.
+ However, for production use, it is better to copy
+ the package directories to a location outside of
+ the build area and use that location.
+ Doing so avoids situations where the build system
+ overwrites or changes the
+ deploy directory.
