Hi,

I'm trying to change the location of -Dactivemq.base.   In the activemq
script, you can do this by setting the environment variable ACTIVEMQ_BASE to
something besides the default, which is $ACTIVEMQ_HOME.

I set ACTIVEMQ_BASE=/tmp, and ran activemq with a simplified version of the
conf/activemq.xml file.   I verified (by looking at "ps") that
-Dactivemq.base=/tmp when activemq executes.   I set it to /tmp so the files
for /tmp/data will go there.  (Just for this test).

When I do this, it appears that not only does it not put data into /tmp as
requested, but it creates an actual directory called "${activemq.base}" in
the current working directory.   It puts the "data" directory below that,
along with all the usual subdirectories below "data".

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong, or is this a bug?   Here is the simple.xml
file I'm using:
