Misleading message for embedded server configuration file

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

      1. Start CLI .$EAP_HOME/bin/jboss-cli.sh
      2. Use a configuration file outside of the $EAP_HOME/standalone/configuration e.g. appclient.xml: embed-server -c=../../appclient/configuration/appclient.xml
    • User Experience

    Description

      When using embedded server configuration file outside of the directory $EAP_HOME/standalone/configuration error message occurs: 

      Cannot start embedded server: WFLYEMB0022: Cannot invoke 'start' on embedded process: WFLYCTL0214: Could not get main file: ../../appclient/configuration/appclient.xml. Specified 
files must be relative to the configuration dir:

      Especially the second part of the message starting "Specified
      files must be relative to the configuration dir" is misleading for the user as the relative path was provided by -c=../../appclient/configuration/appclient.xml. In other words it could be great to mention that configuration dir could be set by the property jboss.server.config.dir during jboss-cli start.

          • Minor - To be worked after urgent, high, and medium priorities are resolved. This term is chosen when the severity of the issue is low, or the complexity or effort to correct it may be higher, relatively speaking. For low priority issues, known workarounds exist or are not needed due to the trivial effort needed to address the issue.
