CreateDB 4.6.6 source code setup on CentOs

I am doing the source code setup of Crate version 4.6.6 in CentOS Linux 7 (Core). I have followed link crate/basics.rst at 4.6.6 · crate/crate · GitHub.

crate version: 4.6.6
java version: 11
python version: Python 3.6.8

I have created “crate” user for the setup.
Build is successful on executing the below command ./gradlew compileJava.
After that I have run the ./gradlew app:run. On executing the app:run command I am getting an below error.

Please guide me how can I do the setup.

Below is the error:

Hi @nisha,

can you give me a rough indication what goal you want to achieve? Why you are doing the development setup for crate?

Cannot tell exactly what the problem is but I would try to run compileJava and app:run again with a newer version of python (according to basic setup you need at least python 3.7—you use 3.6.8) and with a newer version of java (e.g. JDK 17)

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

CrateDb 4.6.6 source code setup has built successfully.

I am using the CrateDB3.0.5 setup on production environment. So I need to develop the similar development environment of CrateDB 3.0.5. After that I need to update the log4j2 in the CrateDB Ver.3.0.5 .

Could you please help in the setup of 3.0.5 version.

I am facing the below error.

Task :core:compileJava

                                                 ^

I think, it is error related with Elasticsearch. Could you please guide how to resolve this error in the setup of 3.0.5 version.

Hi @nisha,

Cool, that it worked :raised_hands:

I’m sorry but we no longer support CrateDB 3.0.5 (released in July 2018❗️).

Regarding log4j I highly recommend to enable log4j2.formatMsgNoLookups setting as explained in our info post. With this change you should be able to mitigate this specific vulnerability.

Furthermore I recommend to start planning and execute your upgrade path to update CrateDB to the most recent version.
