Username/Password not found issue with corb

[RobertSzkutak]

Saw this with a client. If you have roxy setup to prompt the user for a username/password rather than have one in your *.properties file corb will give an error that there is no default username and password available to it.

I'll try to set aside some time and see if I can get a fix in the not too distant future.

Having a prompt_password in there makes a lot of sense. Keep in mind prompt_password stores the value in @ml_password. You can also make it prompt for the user if I am not mistaken..

I'm seeing a very similar issue. In my case I'm using mlcp.

In our environment, we use app_specific.rb to inject username and passwords from the environment variables. This method of setting username and password is working for all the normal deployment commands.

The actual issue I'm seeing, is the -option_file replacement is not occurring for the @options that are set in the app_specific.rb.

@jmeekhof, can you show what you are using inside the options file contents? Something like ${app-name} gets replaced properly at my end. @ml.app-name should work too. Maybe you forgot the ml. prefix that is necessary with the @ notation?

FYI: -option_file is a typo, and should have been -options_file. I prepared a fix for Roxy to change that.

Ok, I have a clearer picture now.

When I was attempting the first time, I had been using tho @ml.user syntax as a command line parameter. Now that I've looked at the code, I see why that didn't work. I've now put my information into a file, and the command seems to be work (I also changed the code to look for the -options_file parameter instead of -option_file).

One clarifying point is the ./ml {env} mlcp command only can find the options file in the deploy directory. Shouldn't we allow the option file to live anywhere?

The path can be relative, so you could go up with ..

I think i have a pr open that makes the roxy look from project root instead..
