Jmix - 2.0.2 Spring Boot Actuator endpoints are not available

Support
#1

Hi,

I intend to check the actuator endpoints in my Jmix application (version 2.0.2) but somehow I cannot make it work. I setup my application in the same way I did in case of my previous application that was written in Jmix 1.4.4. So I added the following configuration:

Build gradle dependencies:

    implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-actuator'
    implementation 'io.micrometer:micrometer-registry-prometheus'

Application properties:

management.server.port= 8081
management.endpoints.web.exposure.include= health, info, prometheus
management.endpoint.health.probes.enabled= true

This configuration worked well with 1.4.4 but provides an error with 2.0.2. When I try to check an actuator endpoint on localhost I experience the following: The application runs on port 8080, endpoints should be available on 8081. When I try to access ‘info’ endpoint by sending a get request to ‘actuator/info’ endpoint on 8081, it redirects it to ‘/login’ path again and again and it creates an endless loop that results in a ‘Error: Exceeded maxRedirects. Probably stuck in a redirect loop http://localhost:8081/login’ error message.

Please advise how to solve this issue and get the metrics of the running application.

Thanks,
Peter

Hello,

You need to allow access to Spring Actuator endpoints.

For example:

@Configuration
public class ActuatorSecurityConfiguration {

    @Bean
    @Order(JmixSecurityFilterChainOrder.FLOWUI - 10)
    public SecurityFilterChain securityFilterChain(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
        http.securityMatcher("/actuator/**")
                .authorizeHttpRequests((authorize) -> authorize.requestMatchers("/actuator/**").permitAll());
        return http.build();
    }
}

Regards,
Nikita

Thanks for this example, Nikita. Does this still work the same way in JMix 2.1? I gave it a try with this configuration class but I’m still requested to login when I access my /actuator/* endpoints.

I resolved my issue in the meantime - I did not put your Java Configuration file below src/main/java but below src/main/kotlin as my project is a Kotlin project and therefore the file was of course not picked up by Gradles Java compile run. I’m using the Kotlin version of your configuration file now

@Configuration
open class ActuatorSecurityConfiguration {
    @Bean
    @Order(JmixSecurityFilterChainOrder.FLOWUI - 10)
    open fun securityFilterChain(http: HttpSecurity): SecurityFilterChain {
        http.securityMatcher("/actuator/**")
            .authorizeHttpRequests { authorize: AuthorizeHttpRequestsConfigurer<*>.AuthorizationManagerRequestMatcherRegistry ->
                authorize.requestMatchers("/actuator/**").permitAll()
            }
        return http.build()
    }
}

If someone is struggeling with this using different port for management (actuator), then I managed to solve it this way:

@Value("\${management.server.port}")
private lateinit var managementPort: String

@Bean
@Order(JmixSecurityFilterChainOrder.FLOWUI - 10)
fun securityFilterChain(http: HttpSecurity): SecurityFilterChain {
    http.securityMatcher("/actuator/**")
        .authorizeHttpRequests { authorize ->
            authorize.requestMatchers(
                checkPort(managementPort.toInt()),
            ).permitAll()
        }
    return http.build()
}

private fun checkPort(port: Int): RequestMatcher = RequestMatcher { request -> port == request.localPort }
