Hi, I am new to Wicket but have some experience with Java and Tapestry. Installing the quickstarts I have run into some problems that make me wonder how many people are starting with this platform as of 2023?
First the facts: I installed the default quickstart 9.14.0 from the https://wicket.apache.org/start/quickstart.html as well as the 10.0.0.M1 directly via eclipse both into a completely fresh eclipse Version: 2023-06 (4.28.0) running under Java 17.0.8.7 from Openlogic. In both versions I have got problem 1. and 2. Problem 3. is exclusive on 10.0.0-M1 but this is due to the enforcement of Java 17 in Version 10. Now the problems: 1.) There is a simple problem with the keystore In Line 46 of the Start.java the keystore (keystore.p12) is supposed to be read. However in the path "\src\test\resources" you will find only a file keystore (without the .p12 suffix). That can not work and therefore the switch to https breaks if that file is not renamed. After renaming the keystore file it worked and I can change to https (at least in 9.14.0 under Java 11. 2.) In the path "\src\test\jetty" are four xml definition file how all get a Referenced file contains errors (http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/configure_9_0.dtd). error. I didn't managed to switch this off but it seems to be irrelevant at least for the development system 3.) It looks as if the usage of org.eclipse.jetty.util.ssl.SslContextFactory is outdated and for Java 17 broken. a.) In Line 58 of the Start.java a SslContextFactory is created by this command: SslContextFactory sslContextFactory = new SslContextFactory(); This call is deprecated in Java 11 and causes an error in Java 17. It should read: SslContextFactory sslContextFactory = new SslContextFactory.Server(); b.) A little bit more complicated is the problem in line 64 ff It states: ServerConnector https = new ServerConnector(server, new SslConnectionFactory( sslContextFactory, "http/1.1"), new HttpConnectionFactory(https_config)); While this is legal in Java 11 but not in Java 17. With 17 you get a The constructor SslConnectionFactory(SslContextFactory, String) is undefined error. You can kind of work around it by making an explicit cast ServerConnector https = new ServerConnector(server, new SslConnectionFactory( (org.eclipse.jetty.util.ssl.SslContextFactory.Server) sslContextFactory, "http/1.1"), new HttpConnectionFactory(https_config)); That works for the http side but it will break if you change to https with the following error. [qtp2009787198-27] WARN org.eclipse.jetty.server.HttpChannel - handleException / org.eclipse.jetty.http.BadMessageException: 400: Invalid SNI I understand that a lot of the old hands work in their production environments and do not have any problems on this level but for a newcomer it is a bit disappointing to run into a number of problems as soon as you load / create a completely untouched quickstart, Thanks anyway to keep going with this interesting platform.
