Definition Elytron key-manager with key-store (which needs password) without filled credential-reference causes ugly failure-description with senseless Exception. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: WFCORE-2468 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-2468 Project: WildFly Core Issue Type: Bug Components: Security Reporter: Hynek Švábek Assignee: Darran Lofthouse Fix For: 4.0.0.Alpha1 Definition Elytron key-manager with key-store (which needs password) without filled credential-reference causes ugly failure-description with senseless Exception. *Steps to reproduce* * firefly.keystore which is attached copy to eap_home/standalone/data/cs. * /subsystem=elytron/key-store=ff001:add(path=cs/firefly.keystore,relative-to=jboss.server.data.dir,type=JKS,credential-reference= {clear-text=Elytron}) */subsystem=elytron/key-managers=keymanager001:add(algorithm=SunX509, key-store=ff001) And you get this output: {code} { "outcome" => "failed", "failure-description" => { "WFLYCTL0080: Failed services" => {"org.wildfly.security.key-managers.km002" => "org.jboss.msc.service.StartException in service org.wildfly.security.key-managers.km002: Failed to start service Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException"}, "WFLYCTL0412: Required services that are not installed:" => ["org.wildfly.security.key-managers.km002"], "WFLYCTL0180: Services with missing/unavailable dependencies" => undefined }, "rolled-back" => true } {code} There must be some kind of information about missing credential-reference or at least missing (wrong) password to key-store. When I add there credential-reference with pass to Key-store then operation passes /subsystem=elytron/key-managers=keymanager001:add(algorithm=SunX509, key-store=ff001, credential-reference={clear-text=Elytron}) *Suggestions to improvement* failure-description must not contain Exception or snippet stacktrace. Please replace WFLYCTL0080 part to better message. e.g. "credential-reference is required", "Missing password to key-store access"
