Start menu shortcuts for JBoss Administration Console have Exec set to: standalone - Exec=xdg-open http://localhost:8080/console domain - Exec=xdg-open http://localhost:9990/console but both commands fail on solaris with "Error showing url: HTTP Error: Method Not Allowed" message, only "xdg-open http://localhost:8080" works for me
This seems to be a limitation of Solaris. xdg-open is calling gvfs-open as it should, and gvfs-open is reporting those errors. It looks like Solaris has versions of these software that are a few years old. Currently our shortcuts are identical for all unix based systems, but we can separate the Solaris ones if needed. Unfortunately I am not able to find a working alternative command that I know will be installed on our supported versions of Solaris by default. If no alternative exists, we might just have to stop supporting these shortcuts on Solaris.
Marking for exclusion from the 6.1.1 Release Notes document as an entry for this bug could not be completed or verified in time.
Per Jyoti's comment above, this is a fundamental issue with solaris. The only option we have is to not create these shortcuts on solaris. If this is the direction we should go, please let us know by Monday July 7. Thanks!
Hi Tom, since this seems to be the only solutions please go on with the change and exclude the administration shortcuts on Solaris.
Hi Petr, I've looked into excluding these specific shortcuts for only Solaris but IzPack doesn't allow you to exclude a shortcut based on OS, it only allows you to install a shortcut if a specific pack is also installed. So at this point unless we add functionality to izpack we may have to exclude shorcuts from Solaris installs to avoid the broken shortcuts.
Hi Ahmed, can you please try to make the fix on izpack if this is possible? If not, we would have to exclude them from Solaris as you said and add this into documentation.
Hi Petr, I'll see if I can modify the izpack shortcut spec to accept a flag that can be used to prevent a shortcut from being created based on the operating system.
I've modified izpack to accept an attribute in the installers Shortcut Spec. Using this I've disabled the two shortcuts in Solaris.
Great, thanks for effort.
Verified on EAP 6.4.0.DR4 installer.
