Intellij : how to update run configuration environment from exisiting process?

I would like to update environment variables of a given run/debug configuration from an existing/running process (selected from PID).
Is there any plugin ? I could not find such thing on the jetbrain repository.
What convenient enough (no var,value pairs hand copy ; no intellij restart) solution could there be to update these environment variables ?

Just to get the functionality, somewhat, I wrote a bash function that works on Linux.
idea_run_env()
{
typeset rcf=${1}
if ! [ -f "$rcf" ]; then
echo "Can not find run configuration file '$rcf'" 1>&2*
return 2
fi
typeset rcf_back=${rcf}.bak
if (( $# > 1 )); then
typeset pid=${2}
# no Esc in attr value, I may/should escape/encode such values but I won't use them
typeset to_be_bloc=$(xargs -n 1 -0 printf "%s\n" < /proc/$pid/environ | grep -a -v -E $'\e' | while IFS='=' read k v; do echo '<env name="'$k'" value="'$v'" />'; done)
if [ -z "$to_be_bloc" ] ; then
echo "Can not find environment for given PID '$pid'" 1>&2*
return 2
fi
#typeset was_block=$(sed -e '/<envs>/,/<\/envs>/{//!b};d' "$rcf")
typeset prefix=$(sed -e '/<envs>/q' "$rcf")
typeset postfix=$(sed -n -e '/<\/envs>/,$p' "$rcf")
[ -f "$rcf_back" ] || mv "$rcf" "$rcf_back"
echo "${prefix}" > "$rcf"
echo "${to_be_bloc}" >> "$rcf"
echo "${postfix}" >> "$rcf"
elif [ -f "$rcf_back" ]; then
mv -f "$rcf_back" "$rcf"
else
echo "Can not find backup to restore" 1>&2
return 1
fi
}

jboss_init_redhat is not working

I used Redhat and Jboss 4.2.2 GA for application server.
I have a basic problem that when I try to run
./jboss_init_redhat.sh start
is not working.
Basicly I want to run inside jboss_init_redhat.sh file;
/opt/jboss/bin/run.sh -c X -b 0.0.0.0
This line is working but jboss_init_redhat.sh not working.That's our problem.
I checked all permissions but there is not any permission problem.
jboss_init_redhat.sh is below:

If you change JBOSS_USER information to RUNASIS, it should work properly.

tomcat remote debug mode in linux

I am setting tomcat in debug mode. Tomcat server is running on different machine and I am working on different machine.
Before starting tomcat I am executing following linux command.
iptables -I INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 9003 -j ACCEPT
export JPDA_ADDRESS=9003
export JPDA_TRANSPORT=dt_socket
export JPDA_SUSPEND=n
bin/catalina.sh jpda start
In eclipse I am providing IP address of remote machine and port number 9003.
My ./catalina.sh file is given below. But still I am not able to see green color debug pointers at breakpoint. What to do ? Eclipse doesn't throw any exception while connecting to remote machine. Earlier it was throwing 'Connection failed' but once I executed following command it was rectified, but not able to see breakpoints even after I have given breakpoints.
iptables -I INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 9003 -j ACCEPT
my cataline.sh file.

# Control Script for the CATALINA Server
#
# Environment Variable Prerequisites
#
# Do not set the variables in this script. Instead put them into a script
# setenv.sh in CATALINA_BASE/bin to keep your customizations separate.
#
# CATALINA_HOME May point at your Catalina "build" directory.
#
# CATALINA_BASE (Optional) Base directory for resolving dynamic portions
# of a Catalina installation. If not present, resolves to
# the same directory that CATALINA_HOME points to.
#
# CATALINA_OUT (Optional) Full path to a file where stdout and stderr
# will be redirected.
# Default is $CATALINA_BASE/logs/catalina.out
#
# CATALINA_OPTS (Optional) Java runtime options used when the "start",
# "run" or "debug" command is executed.
# Include here and not in JAVA_OPTS all options, that should
# only be used by Tomcat itself, not by the stop process,
# the version command etc.
# Examples are heap size, GC logging, JMX ports etc.
#
# CATALINA_TMPDIR (Optional) Directory path location of temporary directory
# the JVM should use (java.io.tmpdir). Defaults to
# $CATALINA_BASE/temp.
#
# JAVA_HOME Must point at your Java Development Kit installation.
# Required to run the with the "debug" argument.
#
# JRE_HOME Must point at your Java Runtime installation.
# Defaults to JAVA_HOME if empty. If JRE_HOME and JAVA_HOME
# are both set, JRE_HOME is used.
#
# JAVA_OPTS (Optional) Java runtime options used when any command
# is executed.
# Include here and not in CATALINA_OPTS all options, that
# should be used by Tomcat and also by the stop process,
# the version command etc.
# Most options should go into CATALINA_OPTS.
#
# JAVA_ENDORSED_DIRS (Optional) Lists of of colon separated directories
# containing some jars in order to allow replacement of APIs
# created outside of the JCP (i.e. DOM and SAX from W3C).
# It can also be used to update the XML parser implementation.
# Defaults to $CATALINA_HOME/endorsed.
#
# JPDA_TRANSPORT (Optional) JPDA transport used when the "jpda start"
# command is executed. The default is "dt_socket".
#
# JPDA_ADDRESS (Optional) Java runtime options used when the "jpda start"
# command is executed. The default is 8000.
#
# JPDA_SUSPEND (Optional) Java runtime options used when the "jpda start"
# command is executed. Specifies whether JVM should suspend
# execution immediately after startup. Default is "n".
#
# JPDA_OPTS (Optional) Java runtime options used when the "jpda start"
# command is executed. If used, JPDA_TRANSPORT, JPDA_ADDRESS,
# and JPDA_SUSPEND are ignored. Thus, all required jpda
# options MUST be specified. The default is:
#
# -agentlib:jdwp=transport=$JPDA_TRANSPORT,
# address=$JPDA_ADDRESS,server=y,suspend=$JPDA_SUSPEND
#
# CATALINA_PID (Optional) Path of the file which should contains the pid
# of the catalina startup java process, when start (fork) is
# used
#
# LOGGING_CONFIG (Optional) Override Tomcat's logging config file
# Example (all one line)
# LOGGING_CONFIG="-Djava.util.logging.config.file=$CATALINA_BASE/conf/logging.properties"
#
# LOGGING_MANAGER (Optional) Override Tomcat's logging manager
# Example (all one line)
# LOGGING_MANAGER="-Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager"
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# OS specific support. $var _must_ be set to either true or false.

What JVM does Intellij Idea use to launch with?

I am an Eclipse user that recently decided to try Intellij Idea. My OS is Ubuntu 12.
Working with Eclipse it was easy to choose a JVM used to start Eclipse by specifying it in eclipse.ini (http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse.ini#Specifying_the_JVM). But I cannot find such a thing for Intellij Idea 12.
Thus, I have 2 questions:
How does Intellij Idea determine what JVM to use to start itself?
Is there a way to override this default behavior?
Thank you.

From the idea.sh you run
# ---------------------------------------------------------------------
# Locate a JDK installation directory which will be used to run the IDE.
# Try (in order): IDEA_JDK, JDK_HOME, JAVA_HOME, "java" in PATH.
# ---------------------------------------------------------------------
if [ -n "$IDEA_JDK" -a -x "$IDEA_JDK/bin/java" ]; then
JDK="$IDEA_JDK"
elif [ -n "$JDK_HOME" -a -x "$JDK_HOME/bin/java" ]; then
JDK="$JDK_HOME"
elif [ -n "$JAVA_HOME" -a -x "$JAVA_HOME/bin/java" ]; then
JDK="$JAVA_HOME"
else
JAVA_BIN_PATH=`which java`
if [ -n "$JAVA_BIN_PATH" ]; then
if [ "$OS_TYPE" = "FreeBSD" ]; then
JAVA_LOCATION=`JAVAVM_DRYRUN=yes java | "$GREP" '^JAVA_HOME' | "$CUT" -c11-`
if [ -x "$JAVA_LOCATION/bin/java" ]; then
JDK="$JAVA_LOCATION"
fi
elif [ "$OS_TYPE" = "SunOS" ]; then
JAVA_LOCATION="/usr/jdk/latest"
if [ -x "$JAVA_LOCATION/bin/java" ]; then
JDK="$JAVA_LOCATION"
fi
elif [ "$OS_TYPE" = "Darwin" ]; then
JAVA_LOCATION=`/usr/libexec/java_home`
if [ -x "$JAVA_LOCATION/bin/java" ]; then
JDK="$JAVA_LOCATION"
fi
fi
if [ -z "$JDK" -a -x "$READLINK" ]; then
JAVA_LOCATION=`"$READLINK" -f "$JAVA_BIN_PATH"`
case "$JAVA_LOCATION" in

Short answer: this is set by the IDEA_JDK environment variable.

Bash shell script: How to set JAVA_HOME environment variable

Using openSUSE, I downloaded the Oracle rpms for jdk1.6.0_24 and I want to set the java home environment variable to /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_24 but the /etc/alternatives system is unable to automatically detect this installed JDK. Update-alternatives , or whatever just doesn't find the jdk.
So, I want to detect the JAVA home manually in a BASH script.
If I run this command: sudo find /usr -name 'jdk1.6*' , I get this result:
/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_24
How do pipe that result into a environment variable? I want to do something like
#!/bin/bash
read in JAVA_HOME var from a file
if file doesnt exist
sudo find /usr -name 'jdk1.6*'
prompt user for which jdk is correct
set that choice to a variable
add the JDK to alternatives if it is missing
save variable to a file and dont prompt next time
set the alternatives java choice
fi
echo $JAVA_HOME

something like
#!/bin/bash
function validate_java_home {
if [ -z ${JAVA_HOME} ]
then
# do something if the file doesn't provide ${JAVA_HOME}
else
if [ ! -e ${JAVA_HOME} ]
then
# do something if the file provides a non existent ${JAVA_HOME}
fi
fi
}
if [ ! -e ${YOUR_FILE_NAME_CONTAINING_JAVA_HOME} ]
then
JAVA_HOME_CANDIDATES=$(find /usr -name 'jdk1.6*')
echo "Found the following candidates for JAVA_HOME, reply with the one you want then press return"
echo ""
echo $JAVA_HOME_CANDIDATES
read USER_SUBMITTED_JAVA_HOME
echo "You chose $USER_SUBMITTED_JAVA_HOME"
JAVA_HOME=${USER_SUBMITTED_JAVA_HOME}
else
. ${YOUR_FILE_NAME_CONTAINING_JAVA_HOME}
fi
validate_java_home
export ${JAVA_HOME}
I haven't tested that but hopefully you get the gist (and I'd say using select as per glenn jackman's answer is more concise/friendly, didn't know that existed so I'm glad I read this Q!)

oldIFS="$IFS"
IFS=$'\n'
choices=( $(find /usr/java -type d -maxdepth 1 -print) )
select choice in "${choices[#]}"; do
[[ "$choice" ]] && break
done
IFS="$oldIFS"
export JAVA_HOME="$choice"

Not sitting at a linux terminal, but this should get you going:
...
jdkpath=`sudo find /usr -name 'jdk1.6*'`
export JAVA_HOME=$jdkpath
...
Adjust as needed.

Based on Matt's answer , here is the script I am using:
#!/bin/bash
# JAVA_HOME script for RPM based java installations
# http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/install-linux-64-rpm-138254.html
# examine and understand /etc/alternatives before you run this
cd $SITE_HOME
function set_java_home {
if [ -z $JAVA_HOME ]; then
echo "Using default value for JAVA_HOME: /usr/java/default"
JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/default
fi
export -p JAVA_HOME
echo $JAVA_HOME > java.home.config
echo "JAVA_HOME variable set to $JAVA_HOME ."
}
if [ -f java.home.config ]; then
JAVA_HOME=$(<java.home.config)
else
JAVA_HOME_CANDIDATES=$(find /usr -type d -name 'jdk1.6*')
echo "Found the following candidates for JAVA_HOME. Pick one: "
echo "---"
echo $JAVA_HOME_CANDIDATES
echo "---"
read USER_SUBMITTED_JAVA_HOME
echo "You chose $USER_SUBMITTED_JAVA_HOME ."
JAVA_HOME=${USER_SUBMITTED_JAVA_HOME}
fi
# Set the variable
set_java_home
