Dear Team, I want to run openelis from source and want to give a try of my own. I have couple of questions First of all which branch should I run ? ( that includes latest stable sources). I have found source from here [image] GitHub - I-TECH-UW/OpenELIS-Global-2: OpenELIS 2.X is a rewr…

I should also mention that I am using VS Code on macOS to run OpenElis. It works fine to call docker-compose up -d on the site as is. My goal is to modify src/main/resources/static/css/openElisCore.css and some images and see the result. Currently after changing openElisCore.css and calling docker-c…

Hello @David_Griffith , Replied you on the other [image] Can OpenElis be reskinned? Are you trying to customize the new Front React front-end or the Legacy jsp front-end ??

Hi, I’m trying to customize the legacy jsp front end. Thanks, David Griffith Technical Project Manager LiveSwitch Inc. (Formerly Frozen Mountain) Direct: (604) 259-2931 Toll-Free: 888-379-6686 www.liveswitch.com

docker-compose up -d runs with already deployed images to a docker registry. You can try running with docker-compose -f build.docker-compose.yml up -d to rebuild the images from source code .

[image] David_Griffith: failed to solve: process "/bin/sh -c mvn clean install -DskipTests" did not complete successfully: exit code: 1 When I try that command, the build fails with the following error: failed to solve: process "/bin/sh -c mvn clean install -DskipTests" did not complete succ…

Hey @David_Griffith , Sorry about that. The build runs fine in the CI environment Can you try running mvn clean install -DskipTests on your local machine if you have maven installed?? Probably you have some breaking change locally.

I get the following error when I run mvn clean install -DskipTests. It looks like I’m missing artifacts. [WARNING] The POM for org.itech:dataexport-api:jar:0.0.0.7 is missing, no dependency information available [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] …

The DataExport-api is included in the OpenELIS Global repo as a git submodule. To clone and Install the submodule locally , git submodule update --init --recursive cd dataexport mvn clean install Note . The above will clone the right dataexport version ie 0.0.0.7

[image] Moses_Mutesasira: git submodule update --init --recursive I updated the instructions a bit , You can do the maven build locally and just mount the war file as a volume to the docker-container . That way you don’t have to entirely do a local docker build as it often takes longer

Hi @Moses_Mutesasira , Thank you for all your help. It turns out I was on the master branch. After switching to the develop branch, I was able to build the site from the source as expected.

The solution is to point JAVA_HOME to java 11.0.21 jdk path.
