[rules-users] Startup KIE Workbench without network connection

[Sandjaja, Dominik]

Hello,

I try to setup KIE Workbench (6.1.0.BetaX) on Tomcat 7 on a Windows 2012 Server without connection to the internet.

When starting up, the KIE-WB does not start up. I get the following errors in localhost.log (cut for better readability):

Mai 15, 2014 5:08:18 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext listenerStart
Schwerwiegend: Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class org.jboss.weld.environment.servlet.Listener
org.jboss.weld.exceptions.DeploymentException: Exception List with 1 exceptions:
[...]
Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: https://github.com/guvnorngtestuser1/guvnorng-playground.git: cannot open git-upload-pack
[...]
Caused by: java.net.ConnectException: Connection time out: github.com

This happens because the initial demo repository is downloaded - I do not want and need those repositories!

I could work around this by copying the TOMCAT_HOME/bin/.niogit directory to that server and have it start up then.

BUT: IMHO it is an inconvenience, maybe even a bug, that an internet connection is needed to set up the Drools KIE Workbench. How are we supposed to tell our infrastructure team that we need an open connection to "some website with code" to setup an editing system for internal knowledge ...
Should I file a bug for that? Is there a way to deactivate the downloading of the initial demo repository? Could it somehow be delivered with the KIE-WB package?

Thanks
Dominik
