5.7 Update

#1

Postby Segi » Mon Mar 23, 2020 8:03 pm

I was looking at the upgrade README for 5.7 and am confused about something.

I thought that the 5.6 update which split the user and app data into 2 directories was going to let us have an automated installer for future updates but 5.7 is still a manual upgrade for all versions of Verj 5.X according to the README

If that is correct, when will we be able to have automates updates through an installer ?

Thanks,

Segi

Apologies for this, the Readme file has not been updated.

If you are currently using V5.6, you can just point the V5.7 installer at your current system and it will automatically upgrade. Obviously it would be wise to take a backup of the file system first.

After backing up my existing Verj 5.6 folders (VerjIO and VerjIOData), I ran the 5.7 Windows 64 bit installer and chose to upgrade my installation which ran successfully.

The installer restarted the Verj IO Windows service.

After entering our domain intranet.example.com into my browser I saw the login page which uses Ebase' built in authentication service to authenticate the user against our database. After submitting the login, I got the following error: https://imgur.com/w1o4LFV

I checked the server logs and saw the following errors in the errors log

Update: I was trying to figure out why the truststore error was happening and I fixed it by removing truststore from VerjIOData\security and this message disappeared from the server logs but the underlying error about no MessageObserver is still there

I just found the solution to this problem and wanted to post it here in case anyone else runs into this after upgrading.

I am using ebaseLogonService to authenticate. I fixed this error by going into the Verj Admin console at http://localhost/ufs/eBaseAdmin.eb and went to Security->Authentication. At the very bottom in the Default Logon Service section the Default Logon Service Web Service Name showed please select so I selected ebaseLogon and saved the setting and now everything works fine again. Somehow this setting was forgotten during the upgrade.

I'm trying to find out what happened during the upgrade, particularly with the default Logon Service. Do you have a copy of security.properties before and after the upgrade that you could send to us at support@ebasetech.com. This file will be in userData/Server/apps/<webappname>/ebaseConf.

The truststore error is just a warning message, it doesn't stop anything working and was probably there in your V5.6 system.

Jon,

I just emailed you the 2 security.properties from 5.6 and 5.7 which I found in VerjIOData/apps/ufs/ebaseConf

I did a compare on these 2 files and noticed that the 5.7 config has a lot more properties than 5.6 including the line Logonexit.WebService=ebaseLogonService that specifies the default logon service.

thanks,

Segi

Thanks for this. We've identified the problem. There will be a small fix to the V5.7 distribution but you will not need to apply this as you have already fixed the problem locally.
