Thanks Mike, I'll update the post I used to build the environment accordingly.

Perhaps an issue caused by building the guacamole-clientvia git clone, rather than downloading .war file? Building guacamole-client from git should result in exactly the same sort of .war file (it's how the .war is built each release, after all). The error you were seeing (regarding API version) occurs when an extension cannot be loaded because it was built against a different version of Guacamole. While the version number of Guacamole within the git repository at the time was 0.9.9, it's likely that there were changes on git which made it incompatible with the extensions built against the 0.9.9 release. There are version number sanity checks performed against extensions when Guacamole starts up, but those will only fail if the version number of the application has been bumped, and that only happens when we're preparing for a new release. The database authentication is part of the guacamole-client source, within the "extensions/guacamole-auth-jdbc" directory, so if you built guacamole-client from git you may have actually had a proper version of the extension on hand - just deeper in the directory tree. In any case, if you want to build Guacamole from git, you can definitely do so. Just make sure to use extensions built against the same version (ie: from git). Please also keep in mind that the repositories referenced in the link you provided are from prior to the move to Apache Incubator, and thus will not have the latest source. The new repositories are: https://github.com/apache/incubator-guacamole-client https://github.com/apache/incubator-guacamole-server - Mike
