clusterInit with allowedHosts fails

This has happened on 7.1.1 and 7.1.2 build 3421. I expect the clusterInit in step 2 to succeed, since the first naming convention in the list supports the hostname. As the rest of the sequence indicates, there doesn't seem a problem when the list is established with /settings/security.

 

Problem with allowedHosts and clusterInit
-----------------------------------------

1. Make sure /etc/hosts contains 'com.test.ubuntu':

more /etc/hosts

127.0.0.1    localhost
127.0.1.1    ubuntu1804.localdomain
127.0.0.1    com.test.ubuntu

 

2. Try cluster init specifying allowedHosts:

curl -v -X POST http://10.144.231.104:8091/clusterInit \
-u Administrator:password \
-d "hostname=com.test.ubuntu" \
-d "services=kv%2Cn1ql" \
-d "username=Administrator" \
-d "password=password" \
-d "port=SAME" \
-d "allowedHosts=["*.test.ubuntu", "127.0.0.1"]"

 

3. Fails with following message:

{"errors":{"hostname":"Can't use 'com.test.ubuntu' as a node name because it is not allowed by the 'allowedHosts' setting"}}

 

4. Check current setting:

    curl -X GET http://localhost:8091/settings/security | jq '.'

Returns:

  "allowedHosts": [
    "*"
  ],
  
  

5. Change setting directly:

curl -X POST http://com.test.ubuntu:8091/settings/security \
-d 'allowedHosts=["*.test.ubuntu", "127.0.0.1"]' \
-u Administrator:password

[]

 

6. Check that change has been made:

curl -X GET http://localhost:8091/settings/security | jq '.'

"allowedHosts": [
    "*.test.ubuntu",
    "127.0.0.1"
  ],
  
  

7. Try cluster init with com.test.ubuntu:

curl -v -X POST http://10.144.231.104:8091/clusterInit \
-u Administrator:password \
-d "hostname=com.test.ubuntu" \
-d "services=kv%2Cn1ql" \
-d "username=Administrator" \
-d "password=password" \
-d "port=SAME"

 

8. Success. Returns:

{"newBaseUri":"http://10.144.231.104:8091/"}
