How does jboss-as maven plugin handle password - maven-plugin

I got an issue with our IT support regarding the handling of the management api password in the maven plugin for jboss (jboss-as-maven-plugin, latest version).
Is the password encrypted by the jboss-as plugin or is it sent in clear text over the net to the api?
Couldn't find anything in the documentation.

keycloak version to use with (react, spring boot, postgres)

what is the best version of keycloak to use with spring boot as backend and react as frontend and I can setup easily with a postgres database, I've tested the latest version 19.0.1 but I couldn't set it up with react and spring boot and it doesn't take the postgres DB I specified in env variables.
can you please suggest me the best version to use and some tutorials, videos or articles to learn more about it and how to implement it in production.
thanks in advance.
I recommand you don't use Keycloak Spring adapters, it is deprecated.
The latest Keycloak version works perfectly. Maybe you just misconfigured or use the wrong libs.
For client (react app), pick a library from certified list
For resource-server (Spring REST API), use either:
spring-boot-starter-oauth2-resource-server (but require quite some Java conf)
spring-addons-webmvc-jwt-resource-server (a lot is configurable from properties, including CORS and roles mapping)
Regarding the connection to Postgres, maybe should you return to the doc and read more carefully.
I'd recomend using the keycloak-spring-boot-starter.
Here is an article on how to set it up: https://www.baeldung.com/spring-boot-keycloak
I would also recomend to always use the most recent version. Especially for a security tool like keycloak. If it doesn't work with the tutorial just set it up in the version the tutorial references and then migrate to a newer version step by step using migration guides.

Need to know the way to work with Apache Camel

I am new to Apache Camel. I have read several documentation of it and went through the examples (only of XML DSL) that Apache provide with its jar. I have a spring MVC project running over tomcat, and in the same project I need to include an Integration Framework. I have installed JBoss plugin for tooling so that I can drag and drop components but palette isn't showing any component but a message 'A palette is not working'. So, please suggest me how should I proceed to implement the same. For now I am referring Camel in Action. And, if possible, then provide an example to send a https request to any URL with some header parameters and transform its response and print it on console or write it to any file or give another https request to any other URL with the payload.
you mentioned that you installed the JBoss plugin for tooling, do you mean that you installed the JBoss Fuse Tooling?
Which version of Eclipse or JBoss Developer Studio are you using? Which OS are you using?
In Fuse Tooling, several examples are provided based on archetypes, I let you check the "CHAPTER 5. CREATING A NEW FUSE PROJECT" in
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_JBoss_Fuse/6.2.1/pdf/Tooling_User_Guide/Red_Hat_JBoss_Fuse-6.2.1-Tooling_User_Guide-en-US.pdf

SP implementation using Spring SAML extension with Google App Engine in Java

I try to make a SP hosted on Google app engine, with a third party IdP, and I'm facing multiple problems.
I'm using Spring SAML extension for java. I was able to run the stand alone (not in GAE) demo app, from the official guide http://docs.spring.io/spring-security-saml/docs/1.0.x/reference/html/chapter-quick-start.html using as IdP idp.ssocircle.com.
Now my problem comes whey I tried to integrate this code in my GAE project. When running with GAE I can get to the phase where I'm redirected to do the login on ssocircle.com and from there when I should be redirected back to my page I'm getting this error: "Error 401 Authentication Failed: Error decoding incoming SAML message", and on local GAE server logs I can see this message
"[INFO] Dec 17, 2014 5:21:23 PM org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector executeWithRetry [INFO] INFO: I/O exception (java.net.SocketException) caught when processing request: Permission denied: Not allowed to issue a socket bind: permission denied."
I was wondering if this is a limitation from GAE regarding sockets: 1) Sockets are available only for paid apps (I don't have a paid app, but could consider this options) 2) You cannot create a listen socket; you can only create outbound sockets. 3) You cannot bind to specific IP addresses or ports. (for me this one sounds like it is my problem).
And whey I tried to deploy on GAE, the app remained in a start-up loop because of other errors regarding "nested exception is java.security.AccessControlException: access denied ("java.lang.RuntimePermission" "modifyThreadGroup")", that sounds like another GAE limitation to me.
At some point I was ready to gave up, because I was thinking that SAML Spring extension can't work with GAE, because of limitations present on GAE. But I see you have the same project running as a demo on GAE (or at least I think it is running on GAE because of the appspot part in domain name). https://saml-federation.appspot.com/saml/discovery?returnIDParam=idp&entityID=saml-federation.appspot.com
I would appreciate if you can give me some hints regarding my problems, and best would be if you could help me with the source code of this demo project (could not find it anywhere), and all configuration that is needed for GAE.
I've created a new repository https://github.com/vschafer/spring-security-saml-gae which includes instructions for deployment of Spring SAML applications on Google Application Engine. It also includes classes helping to avoid issues you're facing (sockets and threads).
In order to use it:
include the jar created from the repo in your project
use the provided org.springframework...StaticFilesystemMetadataProvider for loading of your metadata
in case you are using HTTP-Artifact binding replace bean org.springframework...ArtifactResolutionProfileImpl with org.springframework...google.ArtifactResolutionProfileGAE
Please comment if you spot some mistakes in the documentation or code.

How to access gmail inbox using GAE

We are trying to access gmail inbox from our application in Java. We can read inbox, message, add label, but we are in progress to achieve all the desired functionality.
Our conclusions:
-javax.mail embedded in GAE SDK doesn't work, we can't get the content of e-mail, it returns always null (as expected to not work with IMAP protocol).
With the package mail.jar (https://java.net/projects/javamail/pages/Home), the libraries throws an error because there are two libraries with the same name. (javax)
We investigated and we found a solution on Google Groups consisting in copy the files from javamail.jar to our WEB-INF/classes directory in to our project.
After that, javamail library works but com.sun package is not recognized by our project (eclipse) so we can't get the content of an attachment indeed we need to use "com.sun.mail.util" package.
How can add this libraries to our project?
We use:
App Engine Java SDK 1.7.7
GWT 2.5.1
Java Sun 1.6
Eclipse 3.7.2
You should make sure for recieving emails you should turn on the inbound mail services to true
<inbound-services>
<service>mail</service>
</inbound-services>
There is more configuration details that you can read thro in the documentation.,
Recieve email

Is there a plugin available to run IIS application on Apache HTTP Server?

My company is looking to set up a Sharepoint server for some of our internal users. We would like this to be accessible to external users using our current domain (www.companyname.com). The problem we are having is that www.companyname.com is set up using an IBM HTTP Server (basically Apache) and is based mostly around Java and Websphere. I was wondering if there was a plug-in available for Apache that would allow my to link up the Sharepoint server (running on IIS) with Apache, much like what is done with Websphere and Apache. Any help would be appreciated.
You could probably just use the generic HTTP reverse proxy support in Apache. If you use this in IHS to front-end sharepoint, it would not be supported by IBM and is technically in violation of the license.
If you receive IHS with an IBM product, it's only licensed and supported when used in direct support of the product it came with.
