SoapUI + hermes on linux - configuration issue

Hi there.
There is a problem with installation Soapui with hermes on linux platform (Ubuntu).

I've installed software from ready bin. It's installed soapui and hermes under hermeJMS direcotory.
The problem is I cannot perform any test from cmd line due to following:

ERROR [SoapUI] An error occured [HermesJMS home not specified !!!]

How can I verify hermes home settings ?

Explicitly exporting HERMES_HOME, HERMES_JMS, does nothing.
  • I wouldn't say it is a solution.
    What we found, you particularly , is a workaround.

    Ppl from eviware (SmartBear) should still repair that configuration-library issue so installed application could work as described in features.

    IMHO it's some mess with libraries (cglib, asm, hermes). I would even convince to not use hermes for jms (f.e. groovy could be sufficient to perform a function of jms library).

    Please make this statement clear as I am new to Groovy Script!

  • What I mean, is to use other lib as interface to JMS provider instead hermes.
  • Only if it could help other people...

    I faced the same issue with 4.0.1. After looking at this thread, I did not see any cglib in soapui/lib. When I was about to give up, I checked the size of hermes-1.14.jar and the hermes 1.14 distribution jar file (hermes.jar) and found it was different. So I removed hermes-1.14.jar and link this file to the original distribution and voila!

    Now it works perfectly.

    Any SmartBear guy can confirm if the hermes-1.14.jar in the soapui distribution is the final release, or any RC?

    Regards.

    Hi gordillo.ramon,

    Using soapui 4.5.1 and ran into the same issue. Thank you for the short and straight point - "Replaced soapui/lib/hermes-1.14.jar with hermesJms/lib/hermes.jar".
    Yes, it help me.
    Hoping soapui-4.5.2 might have addressed this.
