Richard Downer created BROOKLYN-197:
---------------------------------------
Summary: Fails to launch unless Internet access is available
Key: BROOKLYN-197
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BROOKLYN-197
Project: Brooklyn
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.9.0
Reporter: Richard Downer
Brooklyn 0.9.0-SNAPSHOT requires a connection to the public Internet to work.
This is a regression from Brooklyn 0.8.0.
This is an issue when Brooklyn is launched into secured server environments. It
is common in many corporations that production servers have restricted egress
access to the public Internet. Therefore this is a major issue.
The issue appears to be that Jetty is using Xerces to parse XML files; Xerces
is trying to resolve the DTDs by downloading them from the URL in the XML
header. Therefore, it will be trying to access http://java.sun.com. When this
operation fails, the root webapp is not deployed, and the Brooklyn web console
(and probably the REST API too) returns 503 Service Unavailable.
