noFAYZ opened this issue · 3 comments

Just setup CAS for SSO in Uportal and Sakai. Everything seems to work fine as i can login to Sakai using Uportal bundled CAS server but on adding users as an admin in Uportal it's giving an exception.

Portlet Window ID: 39_ctf3_11
Channel Definition Name: User Administration
Exception root cause message: NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.ibm.icu.impl.NormalizerImpl

Any update on this issue?

I think this error is related to this issue that we fixed by removing icu4j: uPortal-Project/uPortal-start#468

So if you want to see this problem fixed quickly I invit you to purpose a Pull request or go back to an older java version with older uPortal-start version.

I was able to reproduce the issue, but with a slightly different stacktrace.

$ java -version
java version "1.8.0_171"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_171-b11)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.171-b11, mixed mode)

I suspect that you could create a user XML like uPortal-start/data/quickstart/user/developer.user.xml and import it using the dataImport Gradle task.
