tried Jboss admin user that works at localhost:9990 tried adding user with /var/jboss/EAP/bin/add-user.sh tried with openjdk

'invalid login credentials' every time

Answer 1

I have just tried Fuse 7.12 on EAP 7.4.12 and it worked well as expected.

I used openjdk version "11.0.17" on MacOS

Have you tried the exact steps as below?

1. Unzip jboss-eap-7.4 archive
2. Run java -jar <fuse_eap_installer>.jar jboss-eap-7.4.Z.zip
3. Add a new user by running jboss-eap-7.4/bin/add-user.sh
4. Make sure you add the user properly (roles, passwords, etc.)
5. Change a directory cd jboss-eap-7.4/standalone/configuration
6. Run EAP with desired configs (e.g. ../../bin/standalone.sh -c standalone-full.xml)
7. Access HawtIO localhost:8080/hawtio and log in

Let me know whether it helps.

Cheers!

Hawtio v2 doesn't support the new Elytron securty subsystem: https://github.com/hawtio/hawtio/issues/2709

If you'd like to use Hawtio with a newer version of EAP or WildFly, please disable authentication by configuring:

hawtio.authenticationEnabled = false
