Adding new user to workbench via drools-users.properties

[danilodeLuca]

Hello, I'm trying to add new users via drools-users.properties file, but something is wrong. You can check my forked repository to get the diff code or follow as bellow. Some considerations: 1) When I login into workbench with user "admin" and check the users list, my new user "xablau" exists. 2) Using the user "admin" if I change the xablau's password then I try to login works!

Hi, two things you can try :

1. build the images again after you have changed the drools-roles.properties and drools-users.properties - try again (I am not sure if it is allowed to use the same pwd twice?)

2. execute docker run -p 8081:8080 -p 8001:8001 -i -t --name drools-workbench-showcase jboss/jbpm-workbench-showcase:latest /bin/bash

   ./add-user.sh

   • add a new user when finished please look at standalone/configuration/application-roles.properties and application-users.properties

copy newUser=rol1,rol2 etc to .../drools/drools-wb/showcase/etc/drools-roles.properties and newUser= to .../drools/drools-wb/showcase/etc/drools-users.properties

exit the container. Remove the container > docker ps -a you can fetch the container and then docker rm

Run the container again and try to login as newUser/

Hello, Thank you for the answer. I realized that the password hash is composed by the "user", it's something like: "user:ApllicationRealm:password". That's why its not possible to "copy and paste" password from one user to another. The easiest way is to use the script you mentioned to create new user and password. This issue can be closed.
