Medieval cities were fortified against attack by high walls, and volunteers may fortify a levee against an overflowing river by means of sandbags. Foods can be fortified by adding vitamins, but "fortified wines", such as sherry and port, have brandy (a "stronger" drink) rather than vitamins added to them. By adopting good exercise habits, you can fortify your body against illness. And fortifying needn't always be physical. An author's reputation may be fortified by the success of his new book, or a prosecutor can fortify a case against a suspect by finding more evidence.
I've been trying to figure this out by myself but I just can't find out what the problem is. I've installed a brand new SSC instance in a Win Server 2016, this machine is a VM with SQL Server 2016 and tomcat 8.5.34
The SSC Deployment was normal, and when enter to the instance in the browser, I click on the "Administrators" link and when asked to insert the token, this token does nothing at all, I've tried to copy7paste it into the textbox, I've typed it by hand but the result is the same: When I click the "Sign In" button the page refresh with an Empty token textbox. Before writing this post, I checked this one but It's unsolved, and I can't Install everything from scratch by now. I've restarted my tomcat server and verified that a New Token is generated, but even if I restart the browser and enter the new token again, the token fails and I can't get to the config wizard. The SSC logs only show the tomcat server restarts and the new token being generated but there are no error lines or anything that helps.
My name is Justin and I am from the MicroFocus Fortify support team. I understand that you are attempting to install and configure SSC on Windows Server 2016 and when you attempt to enter the init token you note that no response is recieved.
Please note that since you are running Apache Tomcat 8.X, this is not a supported version of Tomcat for Fortify SSC. You can confirm that Fortify support Apache Tomcat 9.X for Java 8 at the below link:
Please note that I have installed Fortify SSC on Windows Server 2016 using Java 8 JRE and Apache Tomcat 9.X without issue. Please upgrade your Apache Tomcat version reinstall with Tomcat 9.X and let me know the results.
SSC worked during initial configuration but I had an issue configuring SSO. I was prevented from logging on at all due to 'account being suspended' for local and domain accounts. I tried reinstalling Tomcat and then deleted the .fortify directory from the user account tied to Tomcat. I am now stuck at the SSC Setup initialization page and the init.token is not taking.
BTW, there are a couple of ways to force maintenance mode without deleting the fortify.home directory. The easiest way is to modify the version.properties file and change the maintenance.mode value to true and restart Tomcat.
- Started Tomcat back up.
- \.fortify and webapps\ssc directories repopulated
- Navigated to http://:8080/ssc; Maintenance Mode was displayed
- Copied and pasted the init.token from the fortify.home directory and it refreshed asking to put the token in again.
Is there any way to bypass this configuration step? I'm not sure how else I can proceed to get this application set up.
With this, the scan is went to 63% in an hour but it remains the same even after 6 hours. So How i can know what was the issue. How we can see on which stage it was stopped or how to see the Logs etc.
Usually this happens because of various reasons and memory issue is one of them, can you please check fortify log if you see any heap space error then you need to increase memory size. (btw fortify 4.21 has improved memory management , you can use multiple workers for parallel scan for faster scanning)
go to Fortify installation folder core\config\fortify.properties and see the value of com.fortify.WorkingDirectory , that will be your fortify root folder path in your machine.
Laravel Fortify is a frontend agnostic authentication backend implementation for Laravel. Fortify registers the routes and controllers needed to implement all of Laravel's authentication features, including login, registration, password reset, email verification, and more. After installing Fortify, you may run the route:list Artisan command to see the routes that Fortify has registered.
Since Fortify does not provide its own user interface, it is meant to be paired with your own user interface which makes requests to the routes it registers. We will discuss exactly how to make requests to these routes in the remainder of this documentation.
[!NOTE]
Remember, Fortify is a package that is meant to give you a head start implementing Laravel's authentication features. You are not required to use it. You are always free to manually interact with Laravel's authentication services by following the documentation available in the authentication, password reset, and email verification documentation.
As mentioned previously, Laravel Fortify is a frontend agnostic authentication backend implementation for Laravel. Fortify registers the routes and controllers needed to implement all of Laravel's authentication features, including login, registration, password reset, email verification, and more.
You are not required to use Fortify in order to use Laravel's authentication features. You are always free to manually interact with Laravel's authentication services by following the documentation available in the authentication, password reset, and email verification documentation.
If you are new to Laravel, you may wish to explore the Laravel Breeze application starter kit before attempting to use Laravel Fortify. Laravel Breeze provides an authentication scaffolding for your application that includes a user interface built with Tailwind CSS. Unlike Fortify, Breeze publishes its routes and controllers directly into your application. This allows you to study and get comfortable with Laravel's authentication features before allowing Laravel Fortify to implement these features for you.
Laravel Fortify essentially takes the routes and controllers of Laravel Breeze and offers them as a package that does not include a user interface. This allows you to still quickly scaffold the backend implementation of your application's authentication layer without being tied to any particular frontend opinions.
You may be wondering when it is appropriate to use Laravel Fortify. First, if you are using one of Laravel's application starter kits, you do not need to install Laravel Fortify since all of Laravel's application starter kits already provide a full authentication implementation.
If you are not using an application starter kit and your application needs authentication features, you have two options: manually implement your application's authentication features or use Laravel Fortify to provide the backend implementation of these features.
If you choose to manually interact with Laravel's authentication services instead of using Fortify, you may do so by following the documentation available in the authentication, password reset, and email verification documentation.
Some developers become confused regarding the difference between Laravel Sanctum and Laravel Fortify. Because the two packages solve two different but related problems, Laravel Fortify and Laravel Sanctum are not mutually exclusive or competing packages.
Laravel Sanctum is only concerned with managing API tokens and authenticating existing users using session cookies or tokens. Sanctum does not provide any routes that handle user registration, password reset, etc.
If you are attempting to manually build the authentication layer for an application that offers an API or serves as the backend for a single-page application, it is entirely possible that you will utilize both Laravel Fortify (for user registration, password reset, etc.) and Laravel Sanctum (API token management, session authentication).
This command will publish Fortify's actions to your app/Actions directory, which will be created if it does not exist. In addition, the FortifyServiceProvider, configuration file, and all necessary database migrations will be published.
The fortify configuration file contains a features configuration array. This array defines which backend routes / features Fortify will expose by default. If you are not using Fortify in combination with Laravel Jetstream, we recommend that you only enable the following features, which are the basic authentication features provided by most Laravel applications:
By default, Fortify defines routes that are intended to return views, such as a login screen or registration screen. However, if you are building a JavaScript driven single-page application, you may not need these routes. For that reason, you may disable these routes entirely by setting the views configuration value within your application's config/fortify.php configuration file to false:
If you choose to disable Fortify's views and you will be implementing password reset features for your application, you should still define a route named password.reset that is responsible for displaying your application's "reset password" view. This is necessary because Laravel's Illuminate\Auth\Notifications\ResetPassword notification will generate the password reset URL via the password.reset named route.
To get started, we need to instruct Fortify how to return our "login" view. Remember, Fortify is a headless authentication library. If you would like a frontend implementation of Laravel's authentication features that are already completed for you, you should use an application starter kit.
All of the authentication view's rendering logic may be customized using the appropriate methods available via the Laravel\Fortify\Fortify class. Typically, you should call this method from the boot method of your application's App\Providers\FortifyServiceProvider class. Fortify will take care of defining the /login route that returns this view:
