Hi everybody
I've just followed the proposed instructions to install the WSO2 Governance Registry (binary) version 4.1.1 on Windows.
When I wanna run wso2server.bat, I got some warnings and errors as follows:
- WARN failed to set property [syslogHost] to value "localhost".
-ERROR Cannot read file C:\greg\....\Carbon.xml
-ERROR No syslog Host is set for SyslogAppendender Named "CARBON_SYS_LOG"
-ERROR Can not get ServerConfiguration document element
...
Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Hi, I'm trying to use the Governance Registry API using the following code: URL remoteRegistryURL = new java.net.URL("https://localhost:9445/registry"); Registry rootRegistry = new RemoteRegistry(remoteRegistryURL, "admin", "admin"); Registry governanceRegistry = GovernanceUtils.getGovernanceUserRegistry(rootRegistry, "admin"); It complains about "Unhandled exception type RegistryException", which is no big deal as you can just surround the block with try-catch or make the method throw an RegistryException.

I have setup the Greg version 4.1.1, and I need to call the WS API.
There are two wsdl that I try to access that aren't working:
https://localhost:9443/services/AuthenticationAdmin?wsdl
https://localhost:9443/services/WSRegistryService?wsdl
The error printed is: HTTP Status 403 - Access to service metadata for service: WSRegistryService has been forbidden
The same happens for this wsdl:
https://localhost:9445/services/WSRegistryService?wsdl
What do I need to do to make this work?
Thanks,
