We have had CAS server 3.4.11 deployed for some time, and it seemed to be working as expected. We recently encountered the following error in the UI however when the MySQL database for our service registry was taken down for maintenance:
=== CAS is Unavailable There was an error trying to complete your request. Please notify your support desk or try again. === With the corresponding cas.log entries: === DEBUG [org.jasig.cas.web.support.CasArgumentExtractor] - Extractor did not generate service. DEBUG [org.jasig.cas.web.support.SamlArgumentExtractor] - Extractor did not generate service. === This caught us by surprise, since I expected CAS to keep going using its in-memory copy of the service registry based on the feature described here: <https://wiki.jasig.org/display/CASUM/Configuring#Configuring-NotesontheavailabilityofServicesManagementApplicationDatabase> I could have sworn I have previously tested this feature, though I am now perhaps questioning my recollection based on current behaviour (though it may have been an earlier version of CAS3). Any assistance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I believe this is the relevant configuration from deployerConfigContext.xml: <!-- Define the Service Registry --> <bean id="serviceRegistryDao" class="org.jasig.cas.services.JpaServiceRegistryDaoImpl" p:entityManagerFactory-ref="entityManagerFactory" /> <!-- Persistent Service Registry: mysql --> <!-- This is the EntityManagerFactory configuration for Hibernate --> <bean id="entityManagerFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean"> <property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource"/> <property name="jpaVendorAdapter"> <bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter"> <property name="generateDdl" value="true"/> <property name="showSql" value="true" /> </bean> </property> <property name="jpaProperties"> <props> <prop key="hibernate.dialect">${database.hibernate.dialect}</prop> <prop key="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">update</prop> </props> </property> </bean> <bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager"> <property name="entityManagerFactory" ref="entityManagerFactory"/> </bean> <tx:annotation-driven transaction-manager="transactionManager"/> <bean id="dataSource" class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource" p:driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" p:url="${service.registry.url}" p:username="${service.registry.username}" p:password="${service.registry.password}" /> === ${database.hibernate.dialect} is defined in cas.properties as: database.hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect and pom.xml contains: === <!-- Dependencies for database classes --> <!-- Apache Commons DBCP --> <dependency> <groupId>commons-dbcp</groupId> <artifactId>commons-dbcp</artifactId> <version>1.4</version> <scope>runtime</scope> </dependency> <!-- Hibernate Entities --> <dependency> <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId> <artifactId>hibernate-entitymanager</artifactId> <version>3.5.0-CR-2</version> </dependency> <!-- MySQL Connector --> <dependency> <groupId>mysql</groupId> <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId> <version>5.1.20</version> </dependency> <!-- End Dependencies for database jars --> === -baron -- Baron Fujimoto <[email protected]> :: UH Information Technology Services minutas cantorum, minutas balorum, minutas carboratum desendus pantorum -- You are currently subscribed to [email protected] as: [email protected] To unsubscribe, change settings or access archives, see http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/JSG/cas-user
