Unknow connection protocol

[eblikstad]

I'm getting the error message "Unknown connection protocol local" in Rundeck.

The boot(Scannit scannit) function in the class Overthere does not seem to work under some circumstances. I'm using the Rundeck tool and it uses a plugin called rundeck-winrm-plugin which uses Overthere. This causes the verification in the getConnection function to fail.

The woraround was to enter the protocols manually in the boot function.
Overthere.protocols.get().put("cifs", (Class<? extends OverthereConnectionBuilder>) CifsConnectionBuilder.class);
Overthere.protocols.get().put("local", (Class<? extends OverthereConnectionBuilder>) LocalConnection.class);
Overthere.protocols.get().put("ssh", (Class<? extends OverthereConnectionBuilder>) SshConnectionBuilder.class);

There seems to be a problem with the scannit-1.3.1.jar library which may not work running in the Jetty environment which Rundeck use. The problem does noe occur with a plain sample Java project I made during troubleshooting this issue.

@eblikstad can you do the manual setup within the rundeck-winrm-plugin to workaround the issue for that case?

[eblikstad]

I will look into that. I'm hoping this does not require too much coding.

[Jeroen van Erp]

Are you running the rundeck plugin under Java8?

I ran into the same issue as eblikstad. I am testing on a Windows with Java version 1.8.0_65.
