Management webapp 5.3.0-RC1/RC2-SNAPSHOT hates my management.properties file?

[David Curry]

I am building the management webapp with the current Maven WAR overlay, and <cas.version> set to either 5.3.0-RC1 or 5.3.0-RC2-SNAPSHOT. In both cases, all of a sudden the webapp is unhappy with my management.properties file that has been working just fine with 5.1.x and 5.2.x. Specifically, I get:

org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: Error creating bean with name 'casCoreWebConfiguration': Unsatisfied dependency expressed through field 'casProperties'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'cas-org.apereo.cas.configuration.CasConfigurationProperties': Could not bind properties to CasConfigurationProperties (prefix=cas, ignoreInvalidFields=false, ignoreUnknownFields=false, ignoreNestedProperties=false); nested exception is org.springframework.beans.NotWritablePropertyException: Invalid property 'mgmt[adminRoles][0]' of bean class [org.apereo.cas.configuration.CasConfigurationProperties]: Cannot access indexed value in property referenced in indexed property path 'mgmt[adminRoles][0]'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.NotReadablePropertyException: Invalid property 'mgmt[adminRoles][0]' of bean class [org.apereo.cas.configuration.CasConfigurationProperties]: Bean property 'mgmt[adminRoles][0]' is not readable or has an invalid getter method: Does the return type of the getter match the parameter type of the setter?

and, if I delete "cas.mgmt.adminRoles[0]: ROLE_ADMIN" from the file, I get basically the same error on the next property:

org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: Error creating bean with name 'casCoreWebConfiguration': Unsatisfied dependency expressed through field 'casProperties'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'cas-org.apereo.cas.configuration.CasConfigurationProperties': Could not bind properties to CasConfigurationProperties (prefix=cas, ignoreInvalidFields=false, ignoreUnknownFields=false, ignoreNestedProperties=false); nested exception is org.springframework.beans.NotWritablePropertyException: Invalid property 'mgmt[userPropertiesFile]' of bean class [org.apereo.cas.configuration.CasConfigurationProperties]: Cannot access indexed value in property referenced in indexed property path 'mgmt[userPropertiesFile]'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.NotReadablePropertyException: Invalid property 'mgmt[userPropertiesFile]' of bean class [org.apereo.cas.configuration.CasConfigurationProperties]: Bean property 'mgmt[userPropertiesFile]' is not readable or has an invalid getter method: Does the return type of the getter match the parameter type of the setter?

It occurred to me that maybe the property name prefix ("cas.mgmt") might have changed when the webapp was spun off into its own GitHub repository, but unfortunately, when I try to check the documentation on this:

https://apereo.github.io/cas-management/development/installation/Configuration-Properties.html

it results in a 404 error (as does Configuration-Management.html).

Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,

Hi David, 

  Not exactly sure what is going on, but I have to confess that I have not tried building the management app with the Maven overlay.  

I can say for sure that to be compatible with the last release of the management app that the cas.version needs to be 5.3.0-RC1, since that is what it is built against.  

Also I am not sure exactly what benefit the Maven overlay has for the management-app and maybe that it is a discussion we need to have with developers and the CAS community at large.

if you do:

 

git clone https://github.com/apereo/cas-management.git

cd cas-manaagement

./gradlew build -x check -x javadoc

This will build a war under cas-management/webapp-mgmt/cas-management-webapp/build/libs/ that can be deployed.

Needless to say some time needs to be put into the documentation for the management app.

Thanks

Travis

Hi Travis,

The advantage to the overlay is that you don't have to clone the whole repo and build from source. 

I'm trying to build 5.3.0-RC2-SNAPSHOT because I'm working on fixing MongoDbConnectionFactory.java to correctly handle client connection strings (URIs), which is needed to support a MongoDb-based service registry (or other registries, but those don't matter to the webapp).

But, although I'd personally like to see the overlay remain supported and working, I can in the short term probably clone the repo and do it that way.

Thanks,

--Dave
