embedded tomcat startup error cas6.6.x

[Yan Zhou]

HI 

i followed doc to this step, but not sure why it failed. I am on Windows and using CAS 6.6.9. it built fine, but when running in embedded tomcat, run into error.

not sure what it tries to do in /etc/cas/templates, I am on Windows, so I am hoping to find where it is specified and change it to Windows path.

thanks in advance!

Yan,

It looks like you are using cas instead of cas-overlay-template. The main project is for developers. This is for deployers https://github.com/apereo/cas-overlay-template

HI Ray,

Overlay did work, thx a lot!   Still,  I should be able to run CAS as any CAS developer would,  not sure why i run into this 

this is what I did on my Windows, overlay works fine with additional command line arguments, so I attempted the same on CAS project, 

C:\apereocas66x\cas-server\webapp\cas-server-webapp-tomcat>"../../gradlew" build bootRun --parallel --offline --configure-on-demand --build-cache --stacktrace --args=--spring.profiles.active=standalone,--cas.standalone.configuration-directory=C:\apereocas66x\config

In my IntelliJ IDE, it reports this error,  I am sure the CAS project itself has no problem, but I cannot figure out why it is missing Thymeleaf layout dialect jar, and where is this supposed to be specified?

:support:cas-server-support-openid-webflow:test: Could not find nz.net.ultraq.thymeleaf:thymeleaf-layout-dialect:3.1.0 .
Required by:
    project :support:cas-server-support-openid-webflow > project :support:cas-server-support-thymeleaf

Possible solution:
 - Declare repository providing the artifact, see the documentation at https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/declaring_repositories.html

Thanks,

Yan,

There is this https://apereo.github.io/cas/developer/Contributor-Guidelines.html#how-do-i-do-this and this https://apereo.github.io/cas/development/developer/Build-Process.html for developing cas.

There is a step for getting submodules; Was that missed?

I did run to get submodules.   Same error.

I am not as familiar with Gradle, so cannot figure out why.  But if anyone knows why, this maybe quite simple. I would appreciate the help!
