Cannot use CLI tool with EXTERNAL_SERVER_URL set

[ghost]

Hi,
i'm using rundeck with an http proxy in front, so i use the EXTERNAL_SERVER_URL parameter. This works fine with the web UI but the CLI tools doesn't work. When i don't set the EXTERNAL_SERVER_URL parameter the CLI works fine but the Web UI don't work obviously.

Here are my settings:
profile

-Drundeck.jetty.connector.forwarded=true
-Dserver.web.context=/rundeck
-Dserver.https.port=4443

docker command

docker run --name rundeck  \
    -p 4443:4443 \
    -e EXTERNAL_SERVER_URL=https://my-external-domain.net/rundeck \
    -e SERVER_URL=https://my-internal-domain.net:4443/rundeck \
    -d jordan/rundeck

Did i something wrong or is this an known issue?

If you are hitting the same thing I did, its an upstream rundeck issue. The rd-jobs, rd-projects type commands don't work. However, the newer "rd jobs" from the rundeck CLI project work if you have JRE v8. https://github.com/rundeck/rundeck-cli

@stagrlee nailed it 😄

For good measure, what do these entries look like in your framework.properties?

framework.server.port = ????
framework.server.url = ????

If they look OK, try commenting out this line in your profile and see if it helps:

-Dserver.https.port=4443

Hi,
this is my framework.properties

...
framework.server.name = my-internal-domain.net
framework.server.hostname = my-internal-domain.net
framework.server.port = 4443
framework.server.url = https://my-internal-domain.net:4443/rundeck
...

this is my rundeck-config.properties

...
grails.serverURL=https://my-external-domain.net/rundeck
grails.app.context=/rundeck
...

Hi @ljmscx

Try

grails.serverURL=https://my-external-domain.net:4443/rundeck

If that doesn't work, then you'll need to use https://github.com/rundeck/rundeck-cli like @stagrlee pointed out. It's already installed in the container and ready to use 😃
