I am trying to install FIWARE AuthZForce 5.4.1, following the official documentation, but with no success because the Tomcat7 is not starting during the installation process as can be seen below.

(Reading database ... 40187 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to unpack authzforce-ce-server-dist-5.4.1.deb ...
Unpacking authzforce-ce-server (5.4.1) over (5.4.1) ...
Setting up authzforce-ce-server (5.4.1) ...
 * Starting Tomcat servlet engine tomcat7                                                                                                                                                                     
[fail] 
dpkg: error processing package authzforce-ce-server (--install):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 authzforce-ce-server

Is there another way to install AuthZForce? The documentation is very poor. Since the AuthZForce is not correctly installed, I am getting the well known "AZF domain not created for application" message, as stated below:

Fiware AuthZForce error: "AZF domain not created for application"

“AZF domain not created for application” AuthZforce

Can anyone help with this problem?

  • Sorry for the delay, but I was not notified of this question until someone assigned a ticket linking to this on FIWARE JIRA yesterday. Btw, why use tag `fiware-wilma`? Wilma is a different product from AuthzForce. Anyway, I strongly recommend you upgrade to the latest version (8.0.1) as we are not maintaining v5.4.1 anymore which was using Tomcat7/Java 7. We switched to Tomcat8/Java 8 since v6.x. If you have an issue again and want faster response, follow Support request instructions on our Github repo or use authzforce tag. – cdan Jan 16 '18 at 23:45
  • ... and documentation is here: http://authzforce-ce-fiware.readthedocs.io/en/release-8.0.0/. – cdan Jan 16 '18 at 23:48
  • @cdan , just because we didnt have a specific tag for "fiware-azf" and the main dev that used to answer about azf was the main dev that used to answer questions about wilma (alonso)... – Dalton Cézane Jan 17 '18 at 19:27
  • @cdan , the tag `authzforce` is still not created! I just saw another question related to AzF but the user cannot use a specific tag because it was not created yet on stackoverflow. I would create, but I still cannot due to my pontuation... – Dalton Cézane Apr 07 '18 at 15:59
  • I tried, but stackoverflow says I need 1500 reputation to create a new tag, which I don't have :-( If you know someone that does and would be willing to add authzforce tag to this question, let me know. – cdan Apr 08 '18 at 16:52
  • Thanks to David Brossard, we now have an authzforce tag! – cdan Apr 09 '18 at 15:04
