[jira] [Comment Edited] (JAMES-1631) Can't start James 2.3.2.1 on
Windows
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-1631?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14991721#comment-14991721 ]

----------------------------------------------------------------
Hi again,
I discovered that by changing the default provided configuration file (apps\james\SAR-INF\config.xml) and adapting
<users-store>
<destination URL="file://var/users/"/>
</users-store>
And putting a real name there, the original error goes away. Note that it did not happen in James 2.3.2
I had a look in the source code and it's due to this new code in UsersFileRepository:
try {
destinationCanonicalFile = new File(destination).getCanonicalFile();
} catch (IOException e) {
throw new ConfigurationException("destination>>URL", e);
}
getLogger().debug("Canonical destination: " + destinationCanonicalFile);
which wasn't there in 2.3.2
However, after putting a folder in the configuration file, I get another error:
{{

So, an NPE...
Further questions: it seems the "very important security fix" is actually just a change of the default root password from "root" to "!changeme!"
Is that correct? Because I don't need the rest of the fixes (Javadoc and users validation), so if that's all there is to it, I'll revert to James 2.3.2 which actually works out of the box.
Please answer in a timely fashion, I'm totally stuck in my project because of this!
I would debug myself but I am at a loss about how to start this from an Eclipse environment (couldn't find any help on this) and don't have too much time to spend on it.
Thanks
