FYI, the only Master.properties that matters is

/apps/syncope/myproject/core/src/main/resources/domains/Master.properties

because:

* anything under target/ is going to disappear at next build
* the one under test/ is used for the embedded mode, and should not be touched * the one under /apps/apache-tomcat-9.0.17/webapps/syncope/ is your deployed webapp, there is no point in changing that one

Syncope 2.1 runs its whole integration test suite on Tomcat 9, and so does embedded mode hence no, there is no issue with Tomcat 9.

As long as Syncope Core is not properly configured with its database connection (Master.properties and provisioning.properties) there is no chance you'll get anything but 404. I'd suggest to watch your Tomcat logs during startup to identify the main issue - also looking at /opt/syncope/log/core.log would help.

And don't forget to build as we said below, after making your changes to the files.

Regards.

You are correct, but I get a 404 error in that case also :)...



Re. the Master.properties, here is where I found the copies (FYI, all my work is under /apps):

[root@ip-192-168-x logs]# find /apps/ -name "Master.properties"
/apps/apache-tomcat-9.0.17/webapps/syncope/WEB-INF/classes/domains/Master.properties
/apps/syncope/myproject/core/src/main/resources/domains/Master.properties
/apps/syncope/myproject/core/src/test/resources/domains/Master.properties
/apps/syncope/myproject/core/target/classes/domains/Master.properties
/apps/syncope/myproject/core/target/test-classes/domains/Master.properties
/apps/syncope/myproject/core/target/syncope/WEB-INF/classes/domains/Master.properties


I just change my Tomcat to listen to 8080 instead of 9080, and still get the same error so I still really think that whatever is serviceing the /syncope/rest endpoint is not working (thus the NOT_FOUND) and also I get this in the Tomcat localhost_access.log every time I test:

127.0.0.1 - - [02/Apr/2019:12:17:46 +0000] "GET /syncope/rest/platform HTTP/1.1" 404 1103 127.0.0.1 - - [02/Apr/2019:12:17:46 +0000] "GET /syncope/rest/platform HTTP/1.1" 404 1103 172.31.xx.yy- - [02/Apr/2019:12:17:46 +0000] "GET /syncope-console/ HTTP/1.1" 500 8876


Also, FYI, I am using Tomcat 9.x.  Is it possible that that is why this is all not working?

NOTE that I am running the Tomcat and Syncope that I can only access via SSH and HTTP/HTTPS from a browser on a workstation that is remote from the Tomcat/Syncope server.

What I mean by that is that using a browser, I cannot access http://localhost:8080 at all, only http://:8080. <http://<IP>:8080.>

Hi,

In my latest attempt, I *DID* all this:

$ mvn clean verify \
   -Dconf.directory=/opt/syncope/conf \
   -Dbundles.directory=/opt/syncope/bundles \
   -Dlog.directory=/opt/syncope/log
$ cp core/target/classes/*properties /opt/syncope/conf
$ cp console/target/classes/*properties /opt/syncope/conf
$ cp enduser/target/classes/*properties /opt/syncope/conf
$ cp enduser/target/classes/customFormAttributes.json /opt/syncope/conf
$ cp enduser/target/classes/customTemplate.json /opt/syncope/conf

and I still get the same error.  Also FYI, when I point a browser to http://:8080/rest, <http://<IP>:8080/rest,> I get a 404 error from Tomcat.

It would have been

http://:8080/syncope/rest

in case, but this is obviously not working, as your database connection is not set up propertly.

Also, as I said, so far, what I think I have realized is that I didn't do the changes for using mysql (modifying the provisioning.properties and the Master.properties).  I am looking at doing those modifications now.

I did the provisioning.properties change already, but I found there are 5 instances of Master.properties.  Which one do I have to change?

Where are such 5 instances of Master.properties located?

...are you sure you're not familiar enough with docker-compose? It would be just straightforward.

Regards.

Hi,

Thanks. To be clear, here is what I want to do/build:

- Use Syncope 2.1.3
- Use mysql for the internal storage
- Use an LDAP connector (eventually) to an external LDAP (an Oracle Unified Directory/OUD).

BUT I think I've been doing what you suggested (and just re-did everything and got the same result... the NOT_FOUND error :().

Reading through your email below, I think that one thing I am missing/not doing is your reference [8], setting up the provisioning.properties file for mysql.  The [8] reference is for postgre.

Do you know what the provisioning.properties should be for mysql?

Also, would me NOT configuring the provisioning.properties file cause the problem that I am seeing?

Basically, I think that the problem I am having is that the /syncope/rest endpoint is not working.

The problem is that Admin Console is incorrectly looking for Syncope Core (e.g /syncope/rest) under

http://localhost:9080/syncope/rest

while instead it is deployed under

http://localhost:8080/syncope/rest

This is due by the fact that you are not building Syncope as expected for deploying to an external Java EE container, e.g.

$ mvn clean verify \
   -Dconf.directory=/opt/syncope/conf \
-Dbundles.directory=/opt/syncope/bundles \
   -Dlog.directory=/opt/syncope/log
$ cp core/target/classes/*properties /opt/syncope/conf
$ cp console/target/classes/*properties /opt/syncope/conf
$ cp enduser/target/classes/*properties /opt/syncope/conf
$ cp enduser/target/classes/customFormAttributes.json /opt/syncope/conf
$ cp enduser/target/classes/customTemplate.json /opt/syncope/conf

Correct?

Sooooo, let's do a little order.

1. you want to try Apache Syncope with LDAP - cool

2. you come to [1] and click the big green button labeled as "I want to
build my IdM with Apache Syncope"

3. you are brought to [2], where you can see that latest version is
2.1.3 Fusion and that there are many options available; also, some text
says "Don't know what to download? Click the buttons below to get more
information."

4. each buttons brings you to a different section of the Getting Started
guide [3], which explains pros and cons of the various distributions

In a nutshell:

* if you just want to look around, and like the idea of having some test
data with sample resources configured, go with Standalone Distribution

* if you are familiar with Docker, and don't need test data, just use
our images, possibly through docker-compose or Kubernetes (sample available)

* if you want to get full access to customization, stick with Maven but
please, follow the guide, e.g.

  - create new project [4]
  - (optionally) run it as embedded [5]
  - as suggested by [6], "consider reading the Apache Syncope Reference
Guide. to understand how to configure, extend, customize and deploy your
new Apache Syncope project"
  - about deployment, you will find [7], in the Reference Guide, and
understand that you need (1) to create your deployment directories and
(2) that you need to build the project in a different way than [4], in
order to deploy the three WAR files onto an external Java EE container
  - you might also be interested in configuring which DBMS [8] to use
for internal storage (default is PostgreSQL)

Finally, you might find several posts about practical configurations in
my company's blog [9] - but, please, only consider the most reasonably
recent ones: did you notice that the post by Colm you started from is *6
years old*??!?

Hope this helps.
