Re: Notification page crashes in Console UI after e-mail config

2017-07-31 Thread Francesco Chicchiriccò

Hi Martin,
FYI the mail debugging feature is now fully enabled in 2.0.5-SNAPSHOT, 
and the upgraded documentation


https://ci.apache.org/projects/syncope/2_0_X/reference-guide.html#e-mail-configuration

now features a couple of working samples.

Please note that with 2.0.4, while making STARTTLS work is possible (but 
not trivial), mail debugging is not.


Regards.

Hi Francesco,

Thanks for your feedback. I created an issues as requested:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNCOPE-1180

Regarding the documentation, I am still missing the information that I 
would like to see in there. So I am kinda unable to contribute.


Regards,

Martin

Hi Francesco,

I finally had the chance to give Syncope 2.0.4 a try on a fresh
machine as you suggested. Good news: I do not have any issues with
the notification page any more.


That's great to hear :-)


However, notifications are not working due to the email
configuration. I found the documentation in the reference guide
lacks of important details.

https://syncope.apache.org/docs/reference-guide.html#e-mail-configuration

1.The reference guide only names the properties. This is fine for
user, host, etc., but the protocol needs some explanation. I you
have never worked with JavaMail, you’re lost. It would be really
helpful to have a link from the Syncope mail properties to the
JavaMail properties (if this link exists). Or just give examples
for SMTP with STARTSSL (there is no flag for enabling StartSSL!?)
and SMTPS scenarios.


Feel free to open a PR for improving the docs; in particular

https://github.com/apache/syncope/blob/2_0_X/src/main/asciidoc/reference-guide/workingwithapachesyncope/systemadministration/emailconfiguration.adoc

If you would like to go along this way, please first take a look at

http://syncope.apache.org/contributing.html

and send an ICLA as specified, thanks!


2.Where to find the promised debug output when mailDebug is set to
true? I restarted tomcat and created a notification task. There is
no info on “handshake, authentication, delivery and disconnection”
in catalina.out or core.log or console.log


This would need some investigation: would you mind opening an issue on 
JIRA? Thanks.


Regards.

Re: Notification page crashes in Console UI after e-mail config

2017-07-05 Thread Francesco Chicchiriccò

Hi Martin,
thanks for your willing to contribute.

PostgreSQL is my personal (and my company's) preferred choice for our 
customers, when deploying Apache Syncope.
With such configuration, we are running Syncope in production in several 
environments (most of them are Debian / Ubuntu, but also RedHat / CentOS).


Moreover, there is a work-in-progress about Syncope on Docker, currently 
based on DEB distribution and Syncope 2.0.2 at


https://github.com/andrea-patricelli/syncope-docker/tree/2_0_X

All that to say that the problem you are experiencing is definitely not 
something that should depend on the product itself but rather somehow on 
your environment / configuration.


I have only found the following reference in Syncope:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNCOPE-606

where the problem was that the DataSource was manually enabled in 
/etc/tomcat7/Catalina/localhost/syncope.xml 
(/etc/tomcat8/Catalina/localhost/syncope.xml in your case).


Would you mind to try again in a fresh Debian / Ubuntu box (VM or Docker 
image is just fine) by following the steps in


http://syncope.apache.org/docs/getting-started.html#debian-packages

and nothing more? I've just been through it and everything worked 
flawlessly.


Regards.

Hi Francesco,

I downloaded & installed the latest JDBC 4.2 driver (as I am running 
Oracle Java 8). Unfortunately the problem stays exactly the same.


Here are some ideas from my side. They are just educated guesses and 
may lead the wrong way as I am unable to further validate them due to 
my lack of knowledge about Syncope’s implementation.


1.Quartz Scheduler configuration issue

I went through your logs and cannot guess much.

Only questions coming to my mind are:

No, you didn't.
The Admin Console's behavior is due to an unhanded exception
raised by the Core. Unfortunately, the message above does not help
in recognizing what could have happened.

Can you please stop Tomcat, clear all logs, replicate the problem
and paste all of your logs via pastebin or similar?



My setup is: Apache Syncope 2.0.3 Redhat distribution, JDK
1.8.0_131-b11 from Oracle, Tomcat  8.0.32-1ubuntu1, Ubuntu
16.04 LTS.


You might want to give a try to the latest 2.0.4-SNAPSHOT from:
