Building from Gradle on Heroku - where to change the cas properties ?

[Pol D.]

Hello,

I would like to publish on Heroku a CAS server with Proxy Callback authentication enabled (hosted here)

I used the branch heroku-caswebapp as starting point.

I modified the only service to allow proxy callback: https://github.com/drupol/cas/commit/96dbe05ac12f666fb0a3eeb1935dd046d288e469

Now I would also like to modify the cas server properties and I would like to enable some other properties like following:

cas.logout.followServiceRedirects=true
cas.logout.redirectParameter=service
cas.logout.confirmLogout=true
cas.slo.disabled=false

Could you please tell me where I should do that in that repository ?

I tried to do it gradle.properties, but it doesn't work (commit)

The goal of this is for developing a CAS bundle for Symfony 4, you can already test it here: https://psrcas-client.herokuapp.com/

Thanks.

Hi,

I haven't tried Heroku so wasn't the most familar with the structure, but see the following:

https://apereo.github.io/cas/6.0.x/configuration/Configuration-Properties.html#by-directory

CAS by default will attempt to locate settings and properties inside a given directory indicated under the setting name cas.standalone.configurationDirectory and otherwise falls back to using:

1. /etc/cas/config
2. /opt/cas/config
3. /var/cas/config

You can put your config in the above directory (usually we put it in /etc/cas/config), and they will take effect. Note that those path are relative to the root of the system, so 

- config in "YOUR_APP/etc/cas/config" will not take effect

- Instead, config in "/etc/cas/config" will take effect 

Don't know how could heroku copy your config to /etc/cas/config, see if other can helps in regard to that.

See if the above info helps.

Cheers!

- Andy

Hi Andy,

Thanks for your reply, I already checked the documentation and I could not find anything that would work on Heroku because we need to place some files in specific directories which are not accessible on Heroku.

I see in the Procfile that some parameters are passed through the command line, do you know if there's a way to specify the configuration file there ?

Something like this:

java -jar build/libs/cas.war --config=/path/to/cas.properties

Thanks again!

Hi,

Referring this here:

https://apereo.github.io/cas/6.0.x/configuration/Configuration-Management.html#overview

I am using this for my testing system, and I just checked it does work, and it can be consumed by CAS:

java -server -noverify -Xmx2048M -jar -Dcas.standalone.configurationDirectory=/mycasproperties cas.war ${ADDITIONAL_JAVA_PARAM}

And you should be able to see this message if cas properties is loaded:

2019-11-13 08:52:18,444 INFO [org.apereo.cas.configuration.DefaultCasConfigurationPropertiesSourceLocator] - <Configuration files found at [/mycasproperties] are [[file [/mycasproperties/cas.properties]]] under profile(s)

See if this would work...

Cheers!

Hello,

       Thank you for your response, currently I am using cas 5.1 in maven project. Not using the gradle can you help me in maven to connect the cas with

LDAP.

Thanks Andy,

I finally managed to get it working thanks to you.

I also submitted a PR to improve the official branch that gets deployed on Heroku (https://github.com/apereo/cas/pull/4438/) but it has been rejected.

Then I created my own repository that gets deployed on Heroku, find it here: https://github.com/drupol/heroku-cas-server

Thanks again.
