Important
The $config_directories variable is deprecated. Therefore, the temporary
file path is defined as a value in the $settings array:
$settings['file_temp_path'] = '/mnt/tmp/' . $_ENV['AH_SITE_GROUP'] . '.' . $_ENV['AH_SITE_ENVIRONMENT'];
For more information, see Fix for the warning about the deprecated temporary directory configuration.
The temporary files directory in Drupal is the location on your infrastructure where Drupal core and contributed modules upload files for processing.
Acquia’s require line in your
website’s settings.php file configures the location of your temporary files
directory to /mnt/tmp/[sitename].[env], where [sitename] is your
application name and [env] is the environment. This location is available
as an environment variable.
For more information about your application name, see Sitename definition.
For a full list of Cloud Platform file locations, see File locations.
For more information about Twig caches, see Twig caches.
Important
If you’re unable to locate the temporary files, you can set a custom
directory for storing temporary files. You must create such a directory on
the shared file system. Additionally, ensure that the file path you provide
to the file_temp_path parameter already exists. Otherwise, you may face
issues with temporary files.
Do not set the temporary directory to /tmp. The /tmp directory is
smaller than /mnt/tmp/[sitename].[env], may fill up quickly, and may
be purged quickly.
Drupal modules that write to temporary directories may require additional configuration to function properly in environments with multiple infrastructures, such as production environments for Cloud Platform Enterprise and Cloud Platform Site Factory.
