Hello,
I want to harden the default installations and reduce the needed port footprints. karaf-magement adds a RMI Registry and a RMI Server for the JMX Connector. I noticed that I can turn off to create or locate a RMI registry. And when I do so, also the RMI Server seems not to be exported. So this is good, however I doubt its intentional since I get on the console exceptions from the JMXConnector: karaf@root()> Exception in thread "JMX Connector Thread [service:jmx:rmi://127.0.0.1:44444/jndi/rmi://127.0.0.1:1099/karaf-root]" java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not start JMX connector server at org.apache.karaf.management.ConnectorServerFactory.lambda$init$0(ConnectorServerFactory.java:438) at java.base/java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:829) Caused by: java.io.IOException: Cannot bind to URL [rmi://127.0.0.1:1099/karaf-root]: javax.naming.ServiceUnavailableException [Root exception is java.rmi.ConnectException: Connection refused to host: 127.0.0.1; nested exception is: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect] at java.management.rmi/javax.management.remote.rmi.RMIConnectorServer.newIOException(RMIConnectorServer.java:854) at java.management.rmi/javax.management.remote.rmi.RMIConnectorServer.start(RMIConnectorServer.java:501) at org.apache.karaf.management.ConnectorServerFactory.lambda$init$0(ConnectorServerFactory.java:421) ... 1 more So what would be the right setting? In the code I see no obvious program flow to manage this. Ideally I think I would be fine with only registering it on the platform MBeans Server or an own local one. Am I correct that no normal karaf lifecycle commands use the JMX method for that? Gruss Bernd -- https://bernd.eckenfels.net
