    For developers, Corda 5 is an accessible toolbox with well-defined layers that enables you to create solutions. It does not force complexity or concepts but gives a streamlined iteration for the testing and development loop. It is supported by RESTful APIs

    As an operator of a network, Corda 5 places the control in your hands, acknowledging that the rules governing access to a network are best set and managed by you. Deployments can match the scale of the problem and then grow and adapt as it changes. It is cloud-native; behaving as any other modern application, with the tooling to match.

    I have just followed the steps for setting up Corda 5 DP2, here is my feedback particularly around the ease of setting up the environment and make it up and running

    1. After following all the steps, pre requisite installation, corda-cli installation, csde setup
      First thing, when I opened up MyFirstFlow.kt for all corda classes which are being used in first flow it was showing Unresolved reference even after all dev preview classes were there in intellij project external libraries
    2. I did buildCPI task it was showing success, then I did startCorda it was showing success but when I tried to access the swagger it didn’t open up I checked the corda.log in logs folder, found that it was showing connection refused error for postgres and I was assuming the startCorda might spin off postgres container but didn’t see that either in docker desktop
    3. One another thing that I wanted to ask was as part of DP1, we were asked to install corda-node-cli and cordapp-builder however I didn’t see any mention of them in DP2 so I removed them from .corda folder

    Regarding points 2 & 3

    1. The startCorda task should start a Postgresql container.
      Some reasons why the postgres container failed to start include
    • the Docker daemon not completing start up
    • not having access the to the docker hub repository.
    1. corda-node-cli and cordapp-builder are not required for Corda 5 DP2

    To add on point 2: You have to wait a while after the startCorda task shows as complete before the cluster is ready to accept http calls. You can test if the cluster is up and running by clicking the listVNodes task, if it’s running it will complete successfully, but show no nodes. If the cluster is not up yet it will throw an Connection refused (Connection refused) error. Keep poling it every 10 seconds or so and it should come up in around a minute.

    If its not working, follow the reseting CSDE instructions shown here: reset-csde and try again.

    On point 1 – can you try to build using ./gradlew build and post the error messages here.

    (Also, make sure you are using Java 11, not 8)

    I did follow the steps for reset-csde and then executed the startCorda task and found below error in logs. (I was denied file upload being a new user so have to copy the logs here.)

    The other thing that I noticed that postgres container didn’t come up, am on windows machine and I have seen couple of threads where postgres docker image does give issue on windows. Tried couple of things to run postgres image in isolation just to see if that container is coming up by defining a volume and then attaching the volume when I am trying to bring up the container. Also, I changed the option to ‘Switch to Linux Containers’ in docker desktop but nothing worked out.

    I do have a docker hub account and I noticed that I haven’t signed in so just to avoid any confusion, I did sign in as well.

    Thanks for confirming on Point 3, I have removed those folders as part of DP2 setup

    Yes, I am using Java 11 (OpenJDK Version 11.0.13) and following is the output

    PS C:\Projects\R3\Corda 5\cordapps\CSDE-cordapp-template-kotlin> ./gradlew build

    BUILD SUCCESSFUL in 21s

    I think your database user name and password are not corrrect. looking at this log line:

    2022-10-05 23:35:11.174 [main] INFO net.corda.libs.configuration.validation.impl.ConfigurationValidatorImpl - Configuration to validate: {“crypto”:{“hsmId”:“SOFT”},“db”:{“params”:{“database”:{“jdbc”:{“directory”:“C:\Users\ashwani.kumar02/.corda/corda5/jdbcDrivers”,“url”:“jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/cordacluster”},“pass”:“password”,“user”:“user”}}},“dir”:{“tmp”:“C:\Users\ASHWAN~1.KUM\AppData\Local\Temp\/corda/tmp”,“workspace”:“C:\Users\ASHWAN~1.KUM\AppData\Local\Temp\/corda/workspace”},“instanceId”:0,“kafka”:{“common”:{“bus”:{“busType”:“DATABASE”}}},“topicPrefix”:“”}
    

    This is the line we use to start the postgres container in startCorda gradle helper

            new ProcessBuilder(
                    "docker",
                    "run", "-d", "--rm",
                    "-p", "5432:5432",
                    "--name", dbContainerName,
                    "-e", "POSTGRES_DB=cordacluster",
                    "-e", "POSTGRES_USER=postgres",
                    "-e", "POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password",
                    "postgres:latest").start();
    

    Try changing your configuration to use the above user name and password.

    Could you post the command you used to start your postgres instance.
