Description

Testing adding a new user which will be used to connect to the server management interface

Setup

Don't forget to install latest updates!

How to test

  1. Become root (if you don't do this - you get Permission Denied errors later)
  2. cd /usr/share/jboss-as/bin/
  3. ./add-user.sh
  4. Select Management User type (hit [Enter])
  5. Select ManagementRealm realm (hit [Enter])
  6. Select a username
  7. Select a password
  8. Re-type password

Expected Results

  1. A new entry with your user should be appended to /etc/jboss-as/standalone/mgmt-users.properties and /etc/jboss-as/domain/mgmt-users.properties files
  2. Above files still should be owned by jboss-as user



File permissions
As of version 7.1.0-3, jboss-as contains new way of creating backups for properties files introduced in master. This now leads to some permission changes. We're aware of that and a pull request was sent.
