[cas-user] Service Manager question

[Sam Erie]

I am attempting to recreate my university's cas installation from version 3.5 currently in production to the new 5.2. The service manager in use now uses j_acegi_cas_security_check. As far as I can tell from the documentation this has been separated into a new webapp, which I am currently exploring at https://github.com/apereo/cas-management-overlay. 

Is this the intended replacement service manager?

Assuming that it is I need to plan how to run these webapps from a single server. Initially I was planning to use the maven cas-overlay's embedded tomcat server to serve cas. Ideally the server would not need to run two instances of tomcat. If I was to run only the executable war for cas is there a way to package the cas-management.war and run it from the cas embedded tomcat? 

I could imagine just adding the war to the work directory of the cas tomcat build, but the build folder doesn't contain cas.war, or any tomcat config files, so I am a little confused as to how this would work.

Is there some intended way to do this I am overlooking? Or is the best option to just package both webapps to run on my own servlet container, and run from a locally installed tomcat on my server?

Yes --- for management via a UI

Drop in the WAR file after build --- default name is 'cas-management'

You will have 2 paths in same tomcat ---

So I tried putting in a simple test.war that I know can be served from my local version of tomcat. When I use cas with ./build.sh run I am able to access the cas webapp from my browser. After the build I have tried putting test.war into /cas-overlay-template/target/test.war by the cas.war. I also tried putting it into /cas-overlay-template/build/tomcat/work/Tomcat/localhost/test/test.war. 

It serves cas with a nice 302 in the access logs, but test gets a 404.

I don't see a place to put it, like my local tomcat has a webapps folder. I have not tried it with the cas-management.war yet because I am having build problems. I think I need to try the gradle build, as the maven is giving me issues. 

Am I missing something, like does cas' embedded tomcat need the war in a special format? Or did I misunderstand you and I do need to run these from my own local tomcat?
