properties are not resolved for arguments of commands handled on the client-side -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFLY-3004 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-3004 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: CLI Affects Versions: 8.0.0.Final Environment: windows 7 and centos 6.4 Reporter: Gabriele Garuglieri Assignee: Alexey Loubyansky Fix For: 8.0.1.Final When using cli for batch files using --file and --properties arguments, any property is resolved but for those defined in the connect command line. The properties file contains (among the others): server.bind.addr = xxxxx server.management.port = 9990 Having: connect ${server.bind.addr} in the batch file gets ERROR [org.jboss.as.cli.CommandContext] Failed to resolve host '${server.bind.addr}': Failed to create URI: Illegal character in authority at index 16: http-remoting://${server.bind.addr}:9990 Having: connect ${server.bind.addr}:${server.management.port} gets: ERROR [org.jboss.as.cli.CommandContext] The port must be a valid non-negative integer: '${server.bind.addr}:${server.management. If i use literal values for the connect command, any other property in the batch is correctly resolved (but that's exactly what i was trying to avoid)
