Images and Icons wont load in Jenkins

Asked 2022-Jan-12 at 00:48

I have upgraded jenkins to 2.319.1 and started seeing this issue. Our Jenkins is accessed via Netscaler endpoint. https://company.internal.com/jenkins.
Earlier I used to access via host:8080 format. i.e http://host:8080/jenkins and everything was working. It still works fine when accessed like that.

Image 1 : When accessed via Netscaler

Image 2 : When accessed via ip

What I tried so far.

I have checked the logs. No info in logs. Hence I suspect this may be Netscaler's doing.
I tried using Nginx for reverse proxy and it works fine.
I tried simple theme to put custom images and icons. It wont work.

Are there any plugins which can provide icons.I have tried dark theme and simple theme plugins, but to no avail.

Update : I narrowed down the last working version

LTS : https://archives.jenkins-ci.org/redhat-stable/jenkins-2.303.3-1.1.noarch.rpm

Regular : https://archives.jenkins-ci.org/redhat/jenkins-2.307-1.1.noarch.rpm

Finally we found the solution. We had a http to https redirection policy in Netscaler. We dont know why that was blocking *.svg images. The policy is turned off and now jenkins is working great.All the images are loading properly and functionality is working fine.

IIS two sites using same url, ReactJS front, ASP Net Core backend, can't reach backend

I'm running a ReactJS front end with an ASP Net core backend for API calls on my IIS server. There is only one URL and I believe it's set to port 443 via NetScaler (I have no control over the URL/NetScaler).

My ReactJS is on port 443. My ASP Net Core is on port 444 (I'm not sure if this is right or not). I'm aiming for all calls that have /fsapi/ in the path to go to the backend.

Currently I have the following rules:

I suggest you can read official doc about virtual application on IIS.

Steps

Deploy your .net core backend api peoject in main site with name coreapi.
Create a virtual application with name myreact.
Then we can access backend api with url.

You can use the expression -rule\s*(\"(\\\"|[^\"])*\") that will take only the quoted value for the argument -rule, the key changes are

The pattern starts with -rule,
the parts consumes a quote if it is escaped in the repeating group, and consume an additional final quote.

If you wanted to included unquoted parameters as well you could use -rule\s*(\"(\\\"|[^\"])*\"|\S+), where the \S+ represents characters up to next space.

json_query is a Jinja filter, so of course you can use it in a template...or anywhere else that Jinja expressions are valid.

QUESTION

Sonos API sends too short auth code in return?

Asked 2020-Oct-30 at 10:05

Turning to all you smart people out there for help, tips and trix :)

I want to connect my NodeRed instance to the Sonos API to control my speakers in various ways. During the OAUTH process however, after logging in with my username and password for my account, the auth code being sent back to me through my redirect_uri seems to be too short? In the developers' guide the example auth code looks like this: f10072fa6-2134-4fe1-93fd-ca5b9cffa738 where in my case, I just receive the first part up until the first dash sign. Eg.:f10072fa6

At first I ran the connection through a NetScaler, then I changed to using a Nginx Reverse Proxy thinking that the Netscaler might have truncated the URL (for some very odd reason), but the result turned out the same..

Ideas anyone?

The Authorization code you received is correct. The Authorization code format was recently changed and the documentation needs to be updated to reflect this. This question was also answered in Authorization code has different structure than example code.

This error is specific to netmiko. The error text says the list of supported device_type values. To solve the error, fix the below in your code.

The device type should contain small cisco_ios instead of Cisco_ios.

Add secure="true" to the Connector. As the documentation says:

Set this attribute to true if you wish to have calls to request.isSecure() to return true for requests received by this Connector. You would want this on an SSL Connector or a non SSL connector that is receiving data from a SSL accelerator, like a crypto card, an SSL appliance or even a webserver. The default value is false.

Since your Netscaler is handling the SSL encryption and forwarding the requests un-encrypted to Tomcat, it acts as the "SSL accelerator".

The result will be that generated URLs with use https:.

QUESTION

Kubernetes ingress controller expose to specific port

Asked 2020-May-26 at 21:52

My institution has firewall settings that block most of the external ports, currently, I have internal Linux virtual machine, for example, http://abc.xyz:5555 (this link can only be accessed in the internal network), and a Netscaler is set up by the admin so that the internal link is forward to a publicly available link: https://def.edu.

Now I have multiple web servers that use ports like 5556,5557,5558. I want to set up Kubernetes ingress that all traffic goes into the ingress controller first, and the ingress will forward traffic to my multiple web services. Typically as the below image shows.

I only have port 5555 available, but all tutorials of Ingress seem only to support HTTP 80 and HTTPS 443 port. My question is, can I set up the Ingress controller host as http://abc.xyz:5555? Or I should go for other approaches, like this said: An Ingress does not expose arbitrary ports or protocols. Exposing services other than HTTP and HTTPS to the internet typically uses a service of type Service.Type=NodePort or Service.Type=LoadBalancer., if so, what terms/techniques should I use?

ANSWER

Answered 2020-May-26 at 21:52

I suggest to use an ingress, since each loadbalancer gets an own external ip assigned. You can specify a custom port and protocols (tcp,udp,http). I worked with nginx, but the documentation seemed outdated (last checked last week). So we are currently using Traefik. The web dashboard was also a big help in debugging it.

How we solved it:

Install traefik via helm with custom values, so it listens to other ports besides 80 and 443; Add custom entrypoints in your values.yaml and install traefik with: helm install --values values.yaml stable/traefik
Install your ingress http/tcp/udp routes
Forward your web dashboard and go to http://localhost:9000/dashboard

Please see the official docs for more detailed steps: https://docs.traefik.io/getting-started/install-traefik/#use-the-helm-chart

Netscaler - Passtrough SAML Auth

Asked 2020-May-20 at 19:42

We have the following Situation.

Public reachable SSO Portal based on Microsoft ADFS (sso.company.com) Public reachable Citrix Netscaler (netscaler.company.com) Private WebServer (web.company.com) - Not reachable from the internet.

We managed to authenticate against the Netscaler portal with ADFS. Also we can authenticate against the WebServer inside our Network with ADFS.

Our problem is now to configure Netscaler in a way that we also can use the SSO Login to web.company.com from outside via Netscaler.

I hope that's somewhat clear.

Answered 2020-Apr-22 at 12:26

I assume you are using SAML and not OAUTH (shouldn't make a difference):

Is SSO for web.company.com SAML based?

if not then the NS can't help you since SAML does not hold a password by default.
if it is using SAML then just configure the new endpoint in your IDP and everything will be transparent

Install NetScaler

Once logged into a freshly installed NetScaler, the following script sets up the time zone, installs a license, saves the configuration and reboots:.
The above example deal with setting up the stage. However, to configure NetScaler for some real work, more complex set of commands is needed. Usually, this kind of work can be abstracted in a PowerShell function. For instance, the following function will create a very simple reverse proxy:.
