rta-builder - URIError: URI malformed

Hi Team,

When I try to deploy vectr-8.4.3-ce, I get following error message:

$ docker-compose up

What Linux distro and version are you on?

Looking into this further, are you using a custom external MongoDB connection and not the built in container? That could be causing an issue, but we'd need more information on your operating environment. We are able to get other errors with unescaped characters but this particular error we can't recreate.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.6

I'm using default MongoDB connection, here's what I have in .env file: MONGO_URL=mongodb://vectr-mongo:27017/?authSource=admin

I had earlier version installed before but right now everything is removed (images, containers, volumes, networks, etc.)

[carlvonderheid]

Are you using the default docker-compose.yml file? The hostname is expected to be the service name, which is "vectr-mongo".

[blvrkr]

Yes, it's from sra-vectr-runtime-8.4.3-ce.zip

[SRAPSpencer]

Yes, it's from sra-vectr-runtime-8.4.3-ce.zip

Honestly I'm worried it has to do with running in RHEL 8.x. RHEL is unsupported on x86 systems(AMD/Intel CPUs) and we've had nothing but issues with people trying to get it working from connectivity to weird errors like this.

Since we can't replicate you can shoot us an email vectrops@securityriskadvisors.com and we can briefly verify there's nothing obvious wrong on a call.

Ok, I've managed to find the cause of this problem. It seems that special characters are no longer allowed in MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD. I think it's related to one of recent changes because it worked with VECTR 8.3.2 before.

[SRAPSpencer]

Thanks for reporting back the cause. I'll log this in our internal tracker to update our documentation
