Microcks Server Installation Error - Invalid parameter: redirect_uri

[cvsudheer108]

Hello,
I am installing Microcks on AWS EC2.
I made the following modifications:
docker-compose.yml:

• Replaced localhost in the following entries with the respective IP:
  KC_HOSTNAME_ADMIN_URL: "http://localhost:18080"
  KC_HOSTNAME_URL: "http://localhost:18080"
  KEYCLOAK_PUBLIC_URL=http://localhost:18080

• Whitelisted the ports : 8080 and 18080 (for keycloak) on EC2 security group

install/keycloak-realm

• In, microcks-realm-sample.json, replaced localhost with IP:
  "redirectUris": [
  "http://localhost:8080/*"
  ]

• Restarted docker compose

But still it fails with the above error.
Please advise.

No.. I haven't checked that. Can you please guide me to some documentation or steps to check on that, please?

Using your browser, you must connect to KEYCLOAK_PUBLIC_URL and log in using admin / admin (the default password that must be changed). After that, select the microcks realm and check the configuration of the microcks-app-js client. You should have the redirect URLs correctly setup.

Thanks!
The console UI is loading fine on the server, but when I click on : Administration Console link, it gave error that SSL is rquired.

I came across this documentation for Keycloak for configuring for Production. I am trying that. https://www.keycloak.org/server/configuration-production

Meanwhile, I came across this article on setting up Microcks on AWS EC2.
https://microcks.io/blog/install-microcks-on-aws/
It mentions that I just need to run a script - Setup-microcks-apt.sh - , but I couldn't find it in the repo.
Please let me know if there is a latest version of the same.

Up on further checking, I found that, I had missed the IP address in : microcks-realm-sample.json. After replacing there "localhost" with myIP address, the Microcks website strated working in HTTP. But the Keycloaks Admin console still failed to load with the HTTPS error.
I imported a Postman colelction that worked on my localhost machine.
The importing worked, but the API is not visible under the : "API/Services" tab.
On checking the microcks logs, found that the import is successful, but the service load is not getting listed.. logs below..

Might be it means that I need to have SSL, if I am using IP address.. but just wanted to convey this issue...

Yeah ... this blog https://microcks.io/blog/install-microcks-on-aws/ is outdated and we changed so many things since its write-up.
Your issue is still a problem with SSL/TLS protection of Keycloak that's now required. Typically we used to have a setup-tls-run.sh script that was generating self-signed certificates for both Microcks and Keycloak but we dropped them at Microcks 1.2.0. There are still in repo on 1.1.0 tag though if you'd like some inspiration: https://github.com/microcks/microcks/tree/1.1.0/install/docker-compose
