Config server does not reload configuration

[marcellodesales]

Hi there,

I tried configuring the server without Redis and Monitoring...

                <dependency>
                        <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
                        <artifactId>spring-cloud-config-server</artifactId>
                </dependency>
                <!--dependency>
                        <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
                        <artifactId>spring-cloud-config-monitor</artifactId>
                </dependency>
                <dependency>
                        <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
                        <artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-stream-redis</artifactId>
                </dependency-->
                <dependency>
                        <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
                        <artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-eureka</artifactId>
                </dependency>

However, any changes to the GitHub configuration repository was not picked up by the server...

Questions

• Is it possible to run the server without Redis?
• Leaving the monitor settings uncommented, the server cannot start. Is this only used by Redis?
• How to configure a webhook in GitHub? Is this http://cloud.spring.io/spring-cloud-config/spring-cloud-config.html#_push_notifications_and_spring_cloud_bus automatically done by the config server?

You need to setup a webhook with github manually. It is not done automatically. https://developer.github.com/webhooks/creating/

@spencergibb Thank you, but what's the endpoint that GitHub needs to call on the config server??? I haven't found in the documentation...

[spencergibb]

According to the docs it's /monitor.
