"ERROR web.Jetty6WebServer - No static content available for Neo Server at port [7474], management console"

What does this error mean?

I'm trying to run an embedded server from within a Grails 2.0.1 app with the Neo4j plugin.

I've read this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8111959/use-wrappingneoserverbootstrapper-with-spring-data-neo4j

and set up the BuildConfig dependencies as specified in https://github.com/sarmbruster/neo4jsample/blob/master/grails-app/conf/BuildConfig.groovy

dependencies {

// uncomment next three lines if you're using embedded/ha *and* you want the webadmin available

compile(group:"org.neo4j.app", name:"neo4j-server", version:"1.6.1")

runtime(group:"org.neo4j.app", name:"neo4j-server", version:"1.6.1", branch:"static-web")

runtime('com.sun.jersey:jersey-bundle:1.9-SNAPSHOT')

}

any insight would be helpful.

Aldrin,
do you have the project somewhere to try out?

A sample project is here https://github.com/aldrinm/neo4j-embedded

The error is thrown when starting the app. The app itself works fine but the management console is not accessible.

Thanks,

Aldrin

After setting up Grails 2.0.1, and fetching the repo code, just go into the console and 'grails run-app'

Hi Aldrin,
to start with, I had to add a repo in the BuildConfig.groovy like

repositories {
inherits true // Whether to inherit repository definitions from plugins
grailsPlugins()
grailsHome()
grailsCentral()
mavenCentral()

// uncomment these to enable remote dependency resolution from
public Maven repositories
//mavenCentral()
//mavenLocal()
mavenRepo "http://m2.neo4j.org/content/repositories/everything/"
//mavenRepo "http://repository.codehaus.org"
//mavenRepo "http://download.java.net/maven/2/"
//mavenRepo "http://repository.jboss.com/maven2/"
}

Building now ...

Cheers,

Mmh yeah,
I am seeing the same behavior, and I am no Grails expert. I am
guessing that the setup needs to be tweaked somehow. Maybe Stefan, you
have an idea here?

Hi,

it's a dependency issue. Jersey refuses to start up with "No
WebApplication provider is present". I've played around and found a
working config. Try to replace the quoted section in your
BuildConfig.groovy with

dependencies {

compile(group:"org.neo4j.app", name:"neo4j-server", version:"1.6.1")
runtime(group:"org.neo4j.app", name:"neo4j-server", version:"1.6.1",
branch:"static-web")

runtime('com.sun.jersey:jersey-server:1.9')
runtime('com.sun.jersey:jersey-core:1.9')
}

Regards,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,

This didn't work for me. I get same error. However, I can access the REST endpoint http://localhost:7474/db/data/ and http://localhost:7474/webadmin gives me a 404. So i guess only the web admin console is not being set up correctly.

Thanks,

Aldrin

Hi Aldrin,

not a solution, but at least a workaround: copy
http://m2.neo4j.org/content/repositories/releases/org/neo4j/app/neo4j-server/1.6.1/neo4j-server-1.6.1-static-web.jar
to <projectdir>/lib. According to
http://jira.grails.org/browse/GRAILS-6147, dependencies with an
classifier do not work.

Regards,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,

Thanks. That got rid of the error. and I can access the webadmin. Only the neo4j console shell doesn't seem to work. Stacktrace is below. Though I can live with this for now....

Aldrin
