error while starting tomcat with deployed gerrit

[Matthias Höpfner]

Hello,
I tried to setup a tomcat container for gerrit. So far I have a postgres database running already running and gerrit is initialized as well. But if I try to start my tomcat I see a error message. I guess (hopefully) someone of you already saw that error message. Can anyone give me some advise where to look on please...?

I use gerrit version 2.11 and did the initialization process already.
So my setup is as follow:

Folder structure:
   The folder for gerrit:
   /srv/gerrit/

   The folder for tomcat (CATALINA_HOME and CATALINA_BASE):
   /srv/tomcat/

Config files:
   /srv/gerrit/etc/gerrit.config contains:
[gerrit]
    basePath = /srv/gitrepos/
    canonicalWebUrl = http://someMachine:18080/
[database]
    type = postgresql
    hostname = localhost
    port = 5432
    database = reviewdb
    username = gerrit2
[index]
    type = LUCENE
[auth]
    type = HTTP
[sendemail]
    smtpServer = localhost
[container]
    user = someuser
    javaHome = /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.55.x86_64/jre
    war = /srv/tomcat/webapps/gerrit.war
[sshd]
    listenAddress = *:29418
[httpd]
    listenUrl = http://*:18080/
[cache]
    directory = cache

If I start my tomcat with 'export CATALINA_OPTS="-Dgerrit.site_path=/local/sandbox/gerrit/ -Dorg.apache.tomcat.util.buf.UDecoder.ALLOW_ENCODED_SLASH=true"' then I get that error:

That's strange, I saw a similar error (No implementation for ...securestore.SecureStoreClassName...) when I was testing 2.11-rc1, I reported the issue[1] and it was fixed[2] and included in 2.11.

Did you download 2.11 release or you built it?

[Matthias Höpfner]

Hi Hugo!
I use a downloaded 2.11 release version.
Now its working fine. I guess there was a miss leading config in the database.
Anyway - thank you for your replay!

Greetings,
Matthias

[Eric Lemanissier]

Hi Hugo and Matthias,

I just tried to install gerrit 2.11 war release version in tomcat, and I get the same error " No implementation for java.lang.String annotated with @com.google.gerrit.server.securestore.SecureStoreClassName() was bound." Do you have any idea what I should check ? 2.10 was working fine

Thanks in advance,

Eric

What is in your CATALINA_OPTS env variable? Does it contain the -Dgerrit.site_path=...  ?

Or do you define a JNDI resource jdbc/ReviewDb in your Tomcat configuration?

You don't need both, either the gerrit.site_path system property or the jndi property is enough to start Gerrit.

If the gerrit.site_path is defined then it is used, otherwise the jndi property is used.

Just for an experiment: remove the -Dgerrit.site_path from the CATALINA_OPTS and try starting Gerrit again.

[Eric Lemanissier]

It worked ! Thanks a lot! I did not realize the site_path was also stored in the database

This means that we have a bug in Gerrit's startup when running in a servlet container

and using the site_path system property to define the site path.

I will provide a fix on Friday... if no one does it before ;-)

I am currently experiencing the same or a similar problem it seems, trying to upgrade Gerrit from 2.8.3 to 2.11.2, running within Tomcat 7.0.62 with Java 1.7.0_67 (on Ubuntu 12.04.5)

I have defined the jdbc/ReviewDb resource within the webapp context and the database's system_config table contains the column site_path set to '/home/service/gerrit2/gerrit' in my case.

The CATALINA_OPTS variable contains -Dgerrit.init and -Dgerrit.init_path=/home/service/gerrit2/gerrit:

export CATALINA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true \
  -Dgerrit.init_path=/home/service/gerrit2/gerrit \
  -Dgerrit.init=true \
  -Djuli-logback.configurationFile=file:$CATALINA_HOME/conf/logback.xml \
  -Dorg.apache.tomcat.util.buf.UDecoder.ALLOW_ENCODED_SLASH=true \
  -Xms512m \
  -Xmx512m \
  -XX:MaxPermSize=512m"

Starting Tomcat results in these error messages:

The proposed solution here was to make sure the gerrit.site_path property is never set, so that Gerrit looks in the database for the site path, but as you can see I never set gerrit.site_path anywhere in the first place.

I also made sure to remove the old Bouncy Castle library from CATALINA_BASE/lib and clear out the CATALINA_BASE/work directory, in case that interferes with upgrading.

I further tried removing the gerrit.init_path property from CATALINA_OPTS but that only results in Gerrit refusing to continue because the database schema is wrong:

The documentation at https://gerrit-documentation.storage.googleapis.com/Documentation/2.11.2/config-auto-site-initialization.html#_example_2 leads me to believe that upgrading the database and site should just work when setting gerrit.init and (optionally) gerrit.init_path. Am I mistaken? Or is this another manifestation of the same bug?

Any help and input is appreciated.

Thanks,

Andreas

[Hugo Arès]

Hi,

There are couple of possible paths in the code when starting Gerrit in Tomcat, we fixed 2 so far but it looks like you found another one that is still broken.

Can you try again but remove the option to run the init on startup (-Dgerrit.init and -Dgerrit.init_path) and obviously, you will need to run the init manually before starting Gerrit.

Ok, good to know.

This is what I ended up doing and it seems to have worked fine, thanks.

I also had to run

java -jar gerrit-2.11.2.war reindex -d /home/service/gerrit2/gerrit

manually. Is this related to the problem discussed here? Should
Tomcat/Gerrit have done that automatically (like it should have updated
the database schema)?

Just for the sake of completeness here is the stack trace that goes with
this when starting Tomcat:
