Cert Warden on OpenShift 404 Errors

cstewart

Hello, I'm trying to deploy Cert Warden on Red Hat OpenShift. The deployment completes and the web app is accessible, but I receive a 404 error when trying to login.

The login POST request appears to be trying to go to the below URL which is causing the 404:
http://certwarden-certwarden.apps.domain/certwarden/app/__API_URL__/v1/app/auth/login

I did not receive this error when I deployed Cert Warden using docker and API_URL appeared to get replaced with "certwarden/api/

Screenshot of error:

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for your assistance!

This is all but certainly a permissions error. Ensure the user you’re running CW as can edit it’s files (including the frontend folder).

Thanks for the info. I changed the user running CW to the root user and now it can edit the files.

I am still receiving the same 404 error however.

By "frontend folder" do you mean the /app/frontend_build folder? The user running CW is able to edit files in this directory.

Specifically it writes to /app/frontend_build/env.js. Alternatively if you can't get it working you can manually modify the file:

window.env = {
	API_URL: '/certwarden/api',
	SHOW_DEBUG_INFO: false
};

I realized the error is being ignored by CW when this fails so I've opened issues to fix this so the specific error will be logged in the next version when a problem occurs.

I ended up getting this working on OpenShift. The final hurdle was making sure my route was pointing at a specific port 4050.

Here is a gist with the files I used: https://gist.github.com/connor-stewarty/a695a706d562d751d45963e77ff7e373

Thanks for your help and for providing this great product!
