Hi,
Now, when I startup Tomcat, I am seeing this in the catalina.out:
02-Apr-2019 13:17:06.383 WARNING [main]

FYI, in the original (my first attempts with 1.1.3) I had added a Resource in 
the Tomcat context.xml for mysql (see Apache Syncope tutorial - part I)

Apache Syncope is a new open source Identity Management project at Apache. This 
is the first of a planned four-...

Could that be why I am getting that connection error now?  Should I remove that 
<Resource> from the Tomcat context.xml now?

  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.

    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, 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.
 Regards.
