I would like to know if there are any plans to offer Gluu Casa for Gluu version 3.1.7. We have need to use 3.1.7 in production but we also need to have Gluu Casa and it currently is offered for 3.1.6. We performed an upgrade of one of our servers from 3.1.6 to 3.1.7 and noticed that it broke Gluu Casa that we had installed.
CentOS 7.6

Kevin, Do you need it for CentOS7.x? Seems like we already has one for Ubuntu 16.

Yes, we are currently using Centos 7.x on all of our Gluu instances. We are not ready to migrate to Gluu 4.x just yet as it will require rework of our applicaitons which is why Gluu 3.1.7 running with Gluu Casa would be very nice as it solves issues that we have been facing.

Question, we were running 3.1.6.sp1 of Gluu and performed an upgrade inside the chroot to 3.1.7 via the shell script. The problem now is that it broke Gluu Casa 3.1.6. When I try to upgrade Gluu Casa to 3.1.7 outside the chroot environment it wants to upgrade Gluu server rpm to 3.1.7. What is the proper way to accomplish this?

Upgrade from 3.1.x to 3.1.6.sp1# To perform an in-place upgrade from Gluu Server 3.1.x to 3.1.6.sp1, download and run our in-place upgrade script, following these instructions: https://gluu.org/docs/ce/3.1.6/upgrade/ Log in to your server with service gluu-server-3.1.6 login Download the upgrade script with wget https://repo.gluu.org/upd/3-1-6-sp1-upg.sh Run the script with sh 3-1-6-sp1-upg.sh When the script has finished, restart your server: logout service gluu-server-3.1.6 restart

Got it, thanks. Regarding, CASA... I have to check if 'upgrade' is possible or not. I'll talk to associated Dev.

Yes... Dev said.. there shouldn't be any issue in CASA upon upgrade. Because... CASA 3.1.7 is actually 3.1.6 codebase. Can you please share what type of error you are getting when it's broken? Also.. I"ll try to test it by myself.

The error that I am getting when I try to navigate to the Gluu Casa web page is: An error occurred Gluu Casa did not start properly. Contact your admin. When I try to install the https://repo.gluu.org/centos/7-testing/gluu-casa-3.1.7-1.centos7.noarch.rpm it will prompt me to install the gluu-server-3.1.7 server dependency. If I go ahead with the install I will end up with 2 different folders in /opt: /opt/gluu-server-3.1.6/ (Which is the 3.1.6.sp1 that was upgraded to 3.1.7) and /opt/gluu-server-3.1.7/ (Which is the 3.1.7 install via the dependency) That is why I was asking what the preferred method was to upgrade. If I follow the upgrade process via the Gluu docs for Gluu server, it tells me to log into the chroot environment to perform the upgrade via the shell script. When I do that it only updates the files and not the RPM outside the chroot environment. When I try to install the upgrade for Gluu Casa outside the chroot environment it will see that I have Gluu 3.1.6 installed and then will try to install the 3.1.7 rpm.

Yes, kind of looping problem. I asked our CASA developer to take a look. I'll also test as soon as I can manage some time.

**Status** I have a 3.1.6 with CASA 3.1.6 ready. Will perform upgrade tomorrow. Action items will be: - I will perform Gluu Server upgrade by [this](https://www.gluu.org/docs/gluu-server/3.1.7/upgrade/#upgrade-from-31x-to-317) and will see how CASA does. - If CASA breaks.. will try to install / upgrade 3.1.7 CASA separately.

Ok, thanks for confirmation. Seems like it's oxd-server issue. After upgrade for some reason CASA can't read oxd-server config and failing.

I think there is some issue with Casa in 3.1.7. I couldn't install it either. Asked @Jose.Gonzalez and rest of the CASA team to test this rpm in Gluu 3.1.7.

Yes... there was some issue with 3.1.7 base code which prohibited CASA 3.1.7 to install properly. Now, if you install fresh 3.1.7 and then install CASA.. it works okay.

In response to your message on 4/9/20, can I just run another upgrade to 3.1.7 on top of 3.1.7? Installing 3.1.7 all over from the beginning is not really an option as the system is being used currently. Please advise.

Gotcha... "upgrade". Okay.. I'll test it then. 3.1.6 to 3.1.7 upgrade, right?

Hi Kevin, Seems like we need Developer to look into it. I created a github issue on this: https://github.com/GluuFederation/casa/issues/119

Hello Kevin, We figured what actually breaking CASA after upgrade. It's 'casa.json' file. After upgrade, the `casa.json` file lost some configuration attributes which are essential to connect with oxd-server. I have prepared a screencast of this troubleshooting for you. Where: - I just upgraded a 3.1.6 to 3.1.7 and restarting Gluu-Server container. - Tested 3.1.7 oxTrust login after upgrade. - Tested 3.1.7 CASA login after upgrade, which is failing. - Modifying "casa.json" file, adding some host/port for oxd-server - Keeping 'client' configuration snippet blank so CASA can register 'new client'. You can also use old client config if you have backup from 3.1.6. ( The way I have in sublime text ). - Restarted CASA service. - Tested CASA again. - A new CASA cient is registered and you will see consent page. Here is the screencast: https://youtu.be/YCUUEiSko1E Let me know if you have any question or confusion please.

Sorry for the delay. I was trying to get confirmation that this is resolved. The fix you described in the video worked. I am closing the call now.
