Running a custom build

    We assumes that you are in the root directory of the ArangoDB distributionand compiling has successfully finished.

    This part shows how to run your custom build with an empty database directory

    Running with data

    ArangoDB’s developers may change the db file format and after running with achanged file format, there may be no way back. Alternatively you can run yourbuild in isolation and andrestore the data from thestable to your custom build.

    1. su
    2. bin/arangod --configuration /etc/arangodb/arangod.conf
