-------------------------------------------------

Hi, 

I am Pramod Dilshan Rathnayake a Computer Engineering Undergraduate from the 
faculty of Engineering, University of Ruhuna, Srilanka. 

I really like to contribute to this project for GSOC 2017 and I believe I have 
knowledge for do this well. I have very good experience and knowledge in Java 
EE, Spring/Spring boot/Spring Cloud/Spring Security, Spring Data JPA , 
AngularJS2, Unit testing with karma-jasmine, HTML, JavaScript, CSS, Maven.  
Also, have a good experience for implementing a full-stack web application 
using above mentioned technologies.

First of all, I went through the documentation for quick-start of 
Apache_James_Server (https://james.apache.org/server/quick-start.html). 
As mentioned there I downloaded the project source code and configured it on my 
local machine. And tried to build it. But 'mvn compile' command gives compile 
error for “Apache James :: Mailbox :: Store Framework”

Then, I downloaded Binary files of Apache_James_Server and tried to setup it on 
my local machine. But when I try to start  the server it tells “Starting Apache 
James :: Server :: App...” and when I check James server status, it tells 
“Apache James :: Server :: App is not running.” I checked server log and there 
is an error with a configuration. So I think there are some configuration 
errors for both source code and server app.  
So I need some help to configure it and get some knowledge about this to do 
this project as my GSOC project. 
So if someone gives an idea what I have to do first or How I overcome this 
problem, I will be really really grateful. 
  
Thanks. 
Pramod Dilshan Rathnayake,

> Implement a web ui for James administration

>                 Key: JAMES-1931
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-1931
>             Project: James Server
>          Issue Type: Task
>            Reporter: Matthieu Baechler
>              Labels: backend, frontend, gsoc2017, java, js, json, rest, sse
>
> James today provides a command line tool to do administration tasks like 
> creating a domain, listing users, setting quota, etc.
> It requires access to JMX port and even if lot of admins are confortable with 
> such tools, to make our user base broader, we probably should expose the same 
> commands in Rest and provide a fancy default web ui.
> The task would need some basic skills on frontend tools to design an 
> administration board, knowledge on what REST mean and enough Java 
> understanding to add commands to existing Rest backend.
> In the team, we have a strong focus on test (who want a mail server that is 
> not tested enough ?) so we will explain and/or teach the student how to have 
> the right test coverage of the features using modern tools like Cucumber, 
> Selenium, rest-assured, etc.
