Issue with Activiti-Admin 1.5 EA setup

[deepikakumar]

We are currently trying to setup Activiti-Admin EA in one of our unix boxes. Upon deployment we see the following error in the portal -
"The Activiti endpoint did not respond when checking the license last time, further checks will be performed, but for now license is assumed to be invalid."

03:55:50,516 [pool-2-thread-1] ERROR com.activiti.service.ActivitiEndpointLicenseService - Non-enterprise Activiti endpoint: Activiti app

We have the license setup in the Activiti-App 1.4.3 version which we are trying to point to from the Admin portal. Can you let me know if we are missing something ?

Thanks,
Deepika Kumar

Did you configure the endpoint in the UI correctly to point to a valid BPM Suite install?

[deepikakumar]

Yes we have pointed to a valid BPM Suite install.
After debugging it was found that the header information containing authentication header is not being forwarded from Admin to Engine.
[27/Jul/2016:21:31:01 -0400] "GET /activiti-app/api/enterprise/app-version HTTP/1.1" 404 5 - - (Auth header missing).
This is the error captured from the logs.

How did you fix this.. I am facing same issue

[vsangal · Accepted solution]

This works for me now. I had to change the configuration file to use "fallback" Which enables chaining for authentication. Local or LDAP

I believe the admin does not support changing headers right now.

[deepikakumar]

Thisauthorization header only authenticates the call being made to the Activiti-App instance. So we need this header to be passed while making the call. We are not changing any headers.
