# ArangoDB Server Temp Options
|
|
|
|
## Path
|
|
|
|
`temp.path`
|
|
|
|
Path for temporary files. ArangoDB will use this for storing temporary files, for
|
|
extracting 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. ArangoDB v3.5 and higher will
|
|
additionally abort the startup with such configuration.
