Hey everyone, just trying to upgrade to version 3.2.2 from 3.0.1.

In my driver's config, i have the setting jppf.ssl.server.port = -1 to disable ssl and recieve the following errors

JPPF:Driver:StdErr:   java.lang.NullPointerException
JPPF:Driver:StdErr:      at java.io.File.<init>(File.java:222)
JPPF:Driver:StdErr:      at org.jppf.utils.FileUtils.getFileInputStream(FileUtils.java:185)
JPPF:Driver:StdErr:      at org.jppf.ssl.SSLHelper.loadSSLProperties(SSLHelper.java:264)
JPPF:Driver:StdErr:      at org.jppf.ssl.SSLHelper.getSSLContext(SSLHelper.java:69)
JPPF:Driver:StdErr:      at org.jppf.server.nio.acceptor.AcceptorNioServer.createSSLContext(AcceptorNioServer.java:67)
JPPF:Driver:StdErr:      at org.jppf.server.nio.NioServer.init(NioServer.java:150)
JPPF:Driver:StdErr:      at org.jppf.server.nio.NioServer.<init>(NioServer.java:132)
JPPF:Driver:StdErr:      at org.jppf.server.nio.acceptor.AcceptorNioServer.<init>(AcceptorNioServer.java:60)
JPPF:Driver:StdErr:      at org.jppf.server.JPPFDriver.run(JPPFDriver.java:187)
JPPF:Driver:StdErr:      at org.jppf.server.JPPFDriver.main(JPPFDriver.java:418)

It's trying to load the ssl config files regardless of the jppf.ssl.server.port setting which according to the docs say to set to -1 to disable.

Anyone else experience the same and know of a workaround? Something missed?

Thanks!

ahh got it...

seems the setting  jppf.ssl.server.port = -1  doesn't infact disable ssl. Having it disabled comment/not present does

Possible documentation issue?

Code: [Select]

# Port number to which the server listens for secure connections, defaults to 11443
# A negative value indicates that no secure connection is accepted
jppf.ssl.server.port = 11443

Cheers

Hi CM,

In fact we do mention something to this effect in the documentation, in the SSL configuration chapter:

For instance, if you wish to only accept secure connections, you will have to disable the non-secure connections by specifying a negative port number

Please let me know if you think this should be made clearer and eventually also stated elsewhere in the doc.

Sincerely,
-Laurent

Hello again,

I reproduceed the same behavior you described and registered a bug report: JPPF-123 NPE at driver startup when jppf.ssl.server.port = -1 .
I will deliver a patch shortly and I will keep you updated in this thread.

Sincerely,
-Laurent

Hi laurent thanks very much, I will test it ASAP.

Again we're able to get around this by not having the property available or if it is commented.

All the best,

CM
