The procedure seems to be simple, but it's not working for me. I hope someone can let me know what I'm doing wrong.
I want to hide the password to a database pool using a alias. I've done this:
I changed to the domains config directory and I made a file password.txt with this content:
AS_ADMIN_PASSWORD=adminadmin
AS_ADMIN_ALIASPASSWORD=TheDBPassword
Then I used the asadmin command:
asadmin --create-password-alias --user admin --port 4848 --passwordfile password.txt alias1
This seemed to work. Then I shutdown Glassfish and edited domain.xml
<property name="Password" value="{ALIAS=alias1}"/>
<!-- <property name="Password" value="TheDBPassword"/>
-->
When I restart Glassfish, the database pool fails to login however, wrong password.
Did I miss a step?
Thank you
