# TEMPORARY SERVER FILES FOLDER SETTING
This setting controls where AyaNova stores files temporarily while servicing requests such as report generation etc.
Warning: this folder MUST NOT be the same location set for [AYANOVA_FOLDER_USER_FILES](ops-config-folder-user-files.md) or [AYANOVA_FOLDER_BACKUP_FILES](ops-config-folder-backup-files.md) or AyaNova will not start.
## Default
If no override is specified AyaNova will store temporary files in a `tempfiles` folder in the AyaNova root folder where AyaNova is started from.
## Overriding
AyaNova expects the temporary files folder path to be provided by an environment variable or command line parameter named
`AYANOVA_FOLDER_TEMPORARY_SERVER_FILES`
The value specified should be a string containing a fully qualified file path for the platform, for example:
`c:\data\ayanova\tempfiles`
Example command line parameter
`dotnet run --AYANOVA_FOLDER_TEMPORARY_SERVER_FILES="/var/lib/ayanova/tempfiles"`
Example environment variable
Windows
`set "AYANOVA_FOLDER_TEMPORARY_SERVER_FILES=c:\data\ayanova\tempfiles"`
Linux / MAC
`export AYANOVA_FOLDER_TEMPORARY_SERVER_FILES="/var/lib/ayanova/tempfiles"`
If both a command line parameter and an environment variable are set the command line parameter takes precedence.
