 <value>http://$oozie.full.hostname:11000/oozie</value>
 <description>Enter your Oozie server hostname.</description>
</property>

<property>     
 <name>oozie.service.JPAService.jdbc.url</name>     
 <value>jdbc:derby:$OOZIE_DATA_DIR/$soozie.db.schema.name-db;create=true</value>
 <description>JDBC URL
                For Derby database: jdbc:derby:$OOZIE_DATA_DIR/$soozie.db.schema.name-db;create=true
                For MySQL database: jdbc:mysql://$dbhost:3306/$dbname
                For Oracle database: jdbc:oracle:thin:@$dbhost:1521/$oozie_dbname 
                For PostgreSQL database: jdbc:postgresql://$dbhost:5432/$oozie_dbname

Edit the oozie-env.sh and modify the following properties:

<property>

 <description>Use value from $OOZIE_LOG_DIR </description>
</property>

<property>

 <description>Use value from $OOZIE_DATA_DIR </description>
</property>

Copy the Configuration Files
On your Oozie server create the config directory, copy the config files and set the permissions:
```
rm -r $OOZIE_CONF_DIR ;
mkdir -p $OOZIE_CONF_DIR ;
```
Copy all the config files to $OOZIE_CONF_DIR directory.

Set appropriate permissions.

chown -R $OOZIE_USER:$HADOOP_GROUP $OOZIE_CONF_DIR/../ ;
chmod -R 755 $OOZIE_CONF_DIR/../ ;

where:

$OOZIE_CONF_DIR is the directory to store Oozie configuration files. For example, /etc/oozie/conf.
$OOZIE_DATA is the directory to store the Oozie data. For example, /var/db/oozie.
$OOZIE_LOG_DIR is the directory to store the Oozie logs. For example, /var/log/oozie.
$OOZIE_PID_DIR is the directory to store the Oozie process ID. For example, /var/run/oozie.
$OOZIE_TMP_DIR is the directory to store the Oozie temporary files. For example, /var/tmp/oozie.
$OOZIE_USER is the user owning the Oozie services. For example, oozie.
$HADOOP_GROUP is a common group shared by services. For example, hadoop.
