Failed to start redisProvider

[mzico]

I am little confused if I should open this such issue under oxAuth or oxTrust. But, I can't setup external Redis Cache in 4.2.
Here is the testing situation: https://youtu.be/bTfRNttrf2k

@mzico would you please attach oxauth.log in TRACE log level?

[mzico]

@yuriyz : sure, will do it today.

[yuriyz]

@mzico great. Between, does it work if you set useSsl=false ?

[mzico]

@yuriyz : I think it's actually oxTrust issue. I have recorded a screencast which showing that only clear text password is being accepted by oxTrust and "Connection is successful".
After entering clear text ( first time ), oxTrust encode it and if I hit 'enter' again.. it's failing.

@mzico Got it, moved to oxTrust project and assigned to @syntrydy to check.

[syntrydy]

@mzico how can i replicate this?

[mzico]

@syntrydy : my procedure is added in this comment. I have a redis server in cloud, if you want.. I can fire up that machine for your testing.

[syntrydy]

@mzico In my case i was able to connect to redis. Please ive a try with the upcomming package. I changed the code to provide more information about the error.

[syntrydy]

@mzico This is now fixed

[mzico]

@syntrydy : Problem is still there in 4.2.0.

As discussed this is what happening: https://youtu.be/ylSGA9Ro3H8

• Whenever we are clear text password for redis configuration, it's working.
• After 'Update' / 'Save Configuration', oxTrust is encoding it.
• Encoded value looks good.. BUT
• oxTrust can't deal with encoded redis password and hence it's failing to complete configuration.

[syntrydy]

@mzico i think you are not using that form as expected, to configure redis,

That is first step. In the video you don't select that.

[syntrydy]

The password display on the UI is not the encoded password.

[mzico]

@syntrydy @yuriyz : thanks for the fix in 4.2. Can we fix this in 3.1.8? As it's the last & long term version of v3, it will be great to have this fix here. Thoughts?

[syntrydy]

@mzico do you have a video showing the behavior in 3.1.8?

[mzico]

@syntrydy : I will prepare one and share...

[syntrydy]

@mzico okey

[mzico]

@syntrydy : here is the video.

[syntrydy]

@mzico i think it is better to create new issue and tag it 3.1.8
