Property file passed via CLI does not resolve expressions with relative path value

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • EAP 7 does not resolve expressions with relative path value from property file during CLI execution
/jboss-cli.sh --connect --file=vault.cli --properties=vault.properties 

{
    "outcome" => "failed",
    "failure-description" => "WFLYCTL0211: Cannot resolve expression '${vault.keystore.url}'",
    "rolled-back" => true
}

Sample cli file and property file

vault.cli:

/core-service=vault:add( \
    vault-options=[ \
        ("KEYSTORE_URL" => "${vault.keystore.url}"), \
        ("KEYSTORE_PASSWORD" => "${vault.keystore.password}"), \
        ("KEYSTORE_ALIAS" => "${vault.keystore.alias}"), \
        ("SALT" => "${vault.salt}"), \
        ("ITERATION_COUNT" => "${vault.iteration}"), \
        ("ENC_FILE_DIR" => "${vault.encfiledir}") \
    ] \
)
/core-service=vault:read-resource(recursive=true)


vault.properties:

vault.keystore.url=${jboss.server.config.dir}/vault/vault.keystore
vault.keystore.password=MASK-20z/5hRIeZClI0h6Wztl9Z
vault.keystore.alias=vault
vault.salt=12345678
vault.iteration=50
vault.encfiledir=${jboss.server.config.dir}/vault/
