I'm currently trying to connect my intellij installation to a remote websphere server (version 8.5.5.14). When I start making the configuration it gives me a message "Username but no password specified". The thing is, there's no password input in the form. So how do I specify the password?
In the recent versions, IDEA ensures that the plain passwords are never stored in the project- or application- level configuration files. All the passwords previously stored in the application servers run configurations should be automatically moved to KeePass manager or Mac Keychain after an opening of the project.
We also decided to not allow to specify passwords in the template run configurations, so your screenshot is as expected.
There was a bug preventing the passwords fields from showing up in the normal non- template run configurations, but it should be fixed in the final builds for 2018.3.6 and 2019.1 streams

in Azure Storage Explorer i connected to file share through shared access signature(SAS) URI method. after connected, no files are showing under File Shares folder as shown in the image it is keep on loading.
and popping the error message as below after waiting for long time
i'm using Windows 7, Azure Storage Explorer version : 1.10.1, and i have .net 4.0 Framework installed.
Thanks.
This issue may occur due to several reasons like Network issue/ Proxy/subscription/updates/Permissions.
There a few reasons you may be seeing this error: Firstly, I would suggest to try the troubleshooting steps mentioned here:
Delete data from "%appData/StorageExplorer" folder or entire folder from your machine. After deleting when you launch storage explorer you will be prompted to re-enter your credentials.
The uninstall process does not remove all of the files in the local storage, and so I found that on Windows at least if I uninstall MASE and remove the folders that are in C:\Users[username]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer and reinstall,
If you are connected to Azure through a proxy, verify that your proxy settings are correct. If you were granted access to a resource from the owner of the subscription or account, verify that you have read or list permissions for that resource.
Connection String Does Not Have Complete Configuration Settings
Refer the following Storage Explorer troubleshooting documentation and let us know if you need further assistance: Unable to Retrieve Children
If the issue still persist un-install and reinstall the latest version 1.11.2
It would also be worth checking if port 445 is open, since File shares are SMB based, port 445 has to be open. Several Internet service providers block it, so it's also worth testing whether it is open and you can connect to it. you can use the following tool to test it: https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/Troubleshooting-tool-for-a9fa1fe5
Since I set up JFrog Artifactory on our server, I have been alone in using my account (which is separate from admin account) to deploy to a library in libs-release-local, and everything works fine.
Yesterday, I setup an account for my colleague to work with, giving them the same configuration as my own account, which is simply being member of a group that can contribute to _everything. This group has Delete/Overwrite, Deploy/Cache, Annotate and Read access to libs-release-local.
We are using gradlew to build and release our lib. When using their username/encrypted password to download the artifacts or deploy a version, our server directly returns a 401 response to GET|/api/system/version|HTTP/1.1|. Keeping on the same computer, if we just switch to my credentials in the gradle.properties file, I can login successfully.
We have tried changing their password a few times, each time taking the new encrypted one to try, but the result stays the same. Of course, they can also successfully login to the webapp. We have run out of ideas on what could be incorrect in our configuration.
The issue resolved itself this morning after yet another password change. I suspect Artifactory doesn't like certain special characters, although I have no proof.
I will use this "answer" to close the question, but I'll accept any answer that confirms my suspicion or suggests to the actual cause or the problem.
I have a build box, which I use to make continuous builds as well as run nightly unit tests. I'm using Jenkins to do by builds/unit test scripts, which is running on a windows box because our compiler is windows based.
One of our enterprise solutions uses Python code with rabbitmq for exchanging messages for syncing specific database tables over a faulty network. I have unit tests to help verify that updates are happening correctly.
In order to unit test the Python updates, I need to be able to stop some services running on my Linux box, then restart them after I update the python code. I setup a key exchange between my Windows box and Linux box, so that I don't have to put a password in the batch script.
When I'm remoted into the windows box, I can successfully run the batch file, which uses plink commands which rely on the key exchange and putty's pageant (which is running in the background). e.g. I use plink to execute commands on the Linux box from command line in my batch file. However, when I try to run the batch file from Jenkins, the batch file doesn't work properly because it is prompted for the SSH password when trying to run the plink commands.
I believe my current issue can be summarized by two issues, which I'm hoping can be verified and rectified:
I think Jenkins may be running as a different user or using different system credentials so it's not able to connect like the logged in user can. If this is the case, what would I need to do, to get it so that Jenkins can run the plink commands properly without being prompted for the password.
Pageant looks like it needs to get a password typed in every time the computer restarts. My research unearthed ways to put Pageant in startup, so you get prompted when you first login, but I need this to be automatic, like how I can on Linux boxes. If Windows reboots because of a Windows update, then the unit tests would fail as they won't be able to connect to the Linux server. Sure this only happens once a week, but over the course of a year it'll be very annoying.
What can I do to solve the above two issues? If there is a good alternative to putty for the automatic key exchange between Windows and Linux, I'd be interested in hearing about it (I would prefer to stay away from Cygwin with OpenSSH, but might go down this route if the above can't be rectified).
I use plink on my Windows Jenkins box to communicate with Linux on daily basis, there is no problem with it.
Like you theorized, Jenkins runs under it's own user (Windows default, I think, is SYSTEM user), which is different than your logged in session, even if you login as Administrator. Your authentication key is stored in your (Administrator or otherwise) profile directory
What you need to do is use Pageant to export your key as ppk file, then supply the path to this ppk file with plink:
plink -i "C:\path\to\id.ppk"

I have downloaded new version of mule studio, and I am trying to configure it. First I am trying to set network connections. After editing proxy entries, when I click on apply I am presented with "please enter the secure storage password". I have not set any such password.
and I do not see any option of resetting it. Long time ago I had installed some earlier version of mule studio. I did simply delete that directory before reinstalling new one. Could that be a problem. In any case what would be a way out.
Thanks for your help or suggestion on where to look.
Could be due to the old installation, as the Secure Storage file location is usually some hidden Eclipse settings directory. It is used to store proxy authentication data. See Preferences -> Security -> Secure Storage for the Secure Storage settings, and specifically the Contents tab for Storage location and the Delete button that should delete the previous Secure Storage. A restart might be needed.
In Visual Studio 2012, using publish profiles along with web deploy simplifies the deployments quite a bit. However it still is missing few things or may be I don't know how to use it yet.
I prefer to use the NTLM authentication without storing the username and password (especially) in the publish profiles. How can this be done? If I leave the username and password empty, I am prompted for it. Is there a way like manually modifying the .pubxml files?
Why is the username/password stored in PublishProfileName.pubxml that I have checked in the source control and not in PublishProfileName.pubxml.user that is local to each user? I could at least save the username but obviously don't want that to be checked in.
The Configuration itself is not part of PublishProfileName.pubxml but is stored in PublishProfileName.pubxml.user as LastUsedBuildConfiguration.
Same for the Platform as last point.
I am also missing support for multi-server deployments. I am currently forced to use batch files in addition to Publish Profiles.
EDIT
The command line that works fine for publishing is
MSBuild.Exe MyProject.sln /p:Configuration=QA /p:DeployOnBuild=true;PublishProfile=PublishToQA;AllowUntrustedCertificate=true /p:authType=NTLM /p:UserName=
In this I would like to omit the /p:Configuration=QA if the configuration becomes part of the publish profile itself.
Some answers to your questions.
I prefer to use the NTLM authentication without storing the username and password (especially) in the publish profiles. How can
this be done? If I leave the username and password empty, I am
prompted for it. Is there a way like manually modifying the .pubxml
files?
Your authentication is typically driven by how Web Deploy is hosted. By default if you are using the Web Management Service then you are using IIS users for auth. With IIS users you can control which users have permissions to specific sites/apps. You can configure WMSVC to use windows auth as well though. If you have issues using VS for those scenarios let me know.
If you are using the Remote Agent service to host Web Deploy then in this case you'll be using windows auth.
Why is the username/password stored in PublishProfileName.pubxml that I have checked in the source control and not in
PublishProfileName.pubxml.user that is local to each user? I could
at least save the username but obviously don't want that to be checked
in.
We have another mechanism for you to determine what information is private/shared. With the exception of the password all publish info is shared (and checked in by default). In order to simplify the design you can either have a publish profile which is shared, or one which is not shared at all. There is no in-between in which you have a profile that some fields are shared and other not. Password is special cased here and encrypted on a per-user/per-machine basis in the .pubxml.user file.
If you'd like to have a private publish profile then you can simply not check in the .pubxml file which corresponds to the publish profile. These are stored in the Properties\PublishProfiles (or My Project\PublishProfiles for VB) and just exclude them from the project and don't check the files in. The publish dialog looks for the profiles on disk, not just the ones which are in the project. Everything should continue to work.
We don't support the concept of selectively storing values in the .pubxml.user file. The publish dialog will only store a set number of values in that file. Instead of
The Configuration itself is not part of PublishProfileName.pubxml but is stored in
PublishProfileName.pubxml.user as LastUsedBuildConfiguration.
Same for the Platform as last point.
This was a mistake it should have been stored in the .pubxml file, not the .pubxml.user file. We have since fixed this, but haven't had a chance to release the update yet.
The Configuration property cannot be set in the publish profile. The Configuration property is a core part of the build process. To be more specific, the reason why we didn't call this property Configuration is because the .pubxml file is imported into the definition of the .csproj/.vbproj during a build & publish. Since other properties are defined based on Configuration you cannot change the value once it's been set. I just blogged with way too much detail on this subject at http://sedodream.com/2012/10/27/MSBuildHowToSetTheConfigurationProperty.aspx. This limitation is an MSBuild thing not a publish limitation. For command line you should specify Configuration in the following way:
msbuild.exe myproj.csproj /p:...(other properties)... /p:Configuration=
I am also missing support for multi-server deployments. I am currently forced to use batch files in addition to Publish Profiles.
We don't have direct support for this, but if you expand on your needs I may be able to help. FYI I have an extension which you may be interested in. I have posted a 5 min video to http://sedodream.com/2012/03/14/PackageWebUpdatedAndVideoBelow.aspx.
You are free (and encouraged) to manually edit your pubxml files, so feel free to remove the password.
To switch to NTLM, change AuthType to NTLM in the first PropertyGroup.
Platform and Configuration remain build configuration, the user file just stores them so Visual Studio knows what the last configuration you deployed was.
By multi-server, do you mean a web farm? If so, you might try looking at the Web Farm Framework which basically performs MSDeploy syncs from the primary server to the others.
Alternatively, you could switch to the command line and use postSync to upload and execute a batch file on the remote server that triggers the other deployments from there.
