Hey Ray, this was just an example. We actually used the property to set the JSON registry location for testing:
cas.service-registry.json.location=file:etc/cas/services Also, Docker is in use and then you end up with something like that 1) docker run --rm -it -v $PWD/etc/cas/config:/etc/cas/config cas:latest [...] 2020-06-25 12:45:14,401 WARN [org.apereo.cas.web.CasWebApplicationContext] - <Exception encountered during context initialization - cancelling refresh attempt: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'jsonServiceRegistry' defined in class path resource [org/apereo/cas/config/JsonServiceRegistryConfiguration.class]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.apereo.cas.services.ServiceRegistry]: Factory method 'jsonServiceRegistry' threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: /cas-overlay/etc/cas/services does not exist> Configuration from the application-production.properties is used with value '/cas-overlay/etc/cas/services' 2a) docker run --rm -it -v $PWD/etc/cas/config:/etc/cas/config -e cas.service-registry.json.location=file:/foobar cas:latest 2b) docker run --rm -it -v $PWD/etc/cas/config:/etc/cas/config -e CAS.SERVICE_REGISTRY_JSON_LOCATION=file:/foobar cas:latest We got the same result as above. The environment variable is not respected. 3) Same commands as above but we commented out 'cas.service-registry.json.location' in the properties file [...] 2020-06-25 12:47:48,725 WARN [org.apereo.cas.web.CasWebApplicationContext] - <Exception encountered during context initialization - cancelling refresh attempt: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'jsonServiceRegistry' defined in class path resource [org/apereo/cas/config/JsonServiceRegistryConfiguration.class]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.apereo.cas.services.ServiceRegistry]: Factory method 'jsonServiceRegistry' threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: /foobar does not exist> Only now, the environment variable's value is respected... Very strange.
