使用Git repo配置jhipster-registry v3.0.3

Question

I am trying to use the pre-packaged v3.0.3 war file for the jhipster-registry. I am launching it with these command-line properties in an attempt to point it to my Git repo for configuration info:

jhipster-registry-3.0.3.war --spring.profiles.active=prod,cust1 \
--spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=http://myserver/url/MyConfig \
--spring.cloud.config.server.git.username=user \
--spring.cloud.config.server.git.password=pass

It starts, but I always get this error:

Your JWT secret key is not set up, you will not be able to log into the JHipster

I've tried many combinations of how to setup the Git repo. I'm using the sample application.yml file from https://github.com/jhipster/jhipster-registry-sample-config

Does the jhipster-registry itself not read any configuration files from Git?

If I want to configure the jhipster-registry properties, should I keep overriding things on the command-line, or put a yml file somewhere? It isn't clear to me the proper way to configure it when it is a pre-built war file and has embedded bootstrap/application yml files.

Is there a way to turn on debug logging so I can see what is going on?

Answer 1

This is because your JWT token isn't configured in your Git repository. Have a look at our sample Git repository . The Registry will send this token to all configured applications, and thus will be able to connect to them.

Otherwise, it shows a warning as it knows this will be an issue later.

Please note that this is a difference from the "classical" Eureka and Spring Cloud Config servers, which are not secured by default.
