Problem:
User creation in Admin UI was failing with error:
'filer_etc: filer address function not configured'
Root Cause:
1. In admin_server.go, the code checked for incorrect interface method
SetFilerClient(string, grpc.DialOption) instead of the actual
SetFilerAddressFunc(func() pb.ServerAddress, grpc.DialOption)
2. The admin command was missing the filer_etc import, so the store
was never registered
This interface mismatch prevented the filer address function from being
configured, causing user creation operations to fail in the Admin UI.
Note: This bug only affects the Admin UI. The S3 API and weed shell
commands (s3.configure) were unaffected as they use the correct interface
or bypass the credential manager entirely.
Solution:
- Added filer_etc import to weed/command/admin.go to register the store
- Fixed interface check in admin_server.go to use SetFilerAddressFunc
- Updated function call to properly configure filer address function
- Function now dynamically returns current active filer (HA-aware)
- Hoisted credentialManager assignment to reduce code duplication
Tests Added:
- Unit tests in weed/admin/dash/user_management_test.go
* TestFilerAddressFunctionInterface - verifies correct interface
* TestGenerateAccessKey - tests key generation
* TestGenerateSecretKey - tests secret generation
* TestGenerateAccountId - tests account ID generation
All tests pass and will run automatically in CI.
