  1. Solution

There is currently no ABP‑specific or Mapperly‑level “global switch” that makes Mapperly behave like AutoMapper regarding null source / navigation properties. Mapperly’s behavior is intentionally strict and driven by C# nullability. So:

  • You cannot globally say “ignore null source members and don’t throw NREs” like you could effectively get with AutoMapper’s implicit behavior.
  • You must model nullability correctly and/or write explicit null‑safe mappings where needed.

Given that, for a large ABP application the realistic options are:


A. Short‑Term: Keep AutoMapper for the parts that depend on its null behavior

ABP v10 supports using AutoMapper and Mapperly side by side. For a big system that heavily relied on AutoMapper’s implicit null handling, the most practical migration path is:

  1. Keep AutoMapper enabled for existing mappings
    • Keep (or re‑add) the AutoMapper integration in the projects where you can’t yet afford to refactor all mappings:
[DependsOn(
         typeof(AbpAutoMapperModule),
         // other modules...
     )]
     public class MyProjectApplicationModule : AbpModule
     {
         public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
         {
             context.Services.AddAutoMapperObjectMapper<MyProjectApplicationModule>();

             Configure<AbpAutoMapperOptions>(options =>
             {
                 options.AddMaps<MyProjectApplicationModule>(validate: true);
             });
         }
     }
  • Continue to use your existing Profile classes and CreateMap<,>() configurations. AutoMapper will keep handling nulls the way it always has.
  1. Introduce Mapperly gradually for new / refactored areas
    • For new modules or new DTOs, configure Mapperly:
[DependsOn(
         typeof(AbpMapperlyModule),
         // ...
     )]
     public class MyNewModule : AbpModule
     {
         public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
         {
             context.Services.AddMapperlyObjectMapper<MyNewModule>();
         }
     }
  • Use Mapperly mappers only where you explicitly design nullability correctly and can tolerate its strictness.
  1. Use ObjectMapperContext to select which mapper is used
    • In an app service that should still use AutoMapper:
public class LegacyAppService : ApplicationService
     {
         public LegacyAppService()
         {
             ObjectMapperContext = typeof(MyProjectApplicationModule); // AutoMapper context
         }
     }
  • In a new app service that should use Mapperly:
public class NewAppService : ApplicationService
     {
         public NewAppService()
         {
             ObjectMapperContext = typeof(MyNewModule); // Mapperly context
         }
     }

This allows you to migrate incrementally instead of forcing the whole codebase to Mapperly’s strict rules at once.


B. Long‑Term: Migrate to Mapperly with explicit nullability and null‑safe mappings

For the parts you do want to move fully to Mapperly, the strategy is:

1. Make nullability explicit in your models and DTOs

Mapperly trusts your C# nullability annotations:

  • If a navigation can be missing:
public class Order
  {
      public Customer? Customer { get; set; }  // nullable if optional
  }

  public class OrderDto
  {
      public string? CustomerName { get; set; }  // nullable if Customer may be null
  }
  • Avoid declaring as non‑nullable when it can actually be null (that’s what leads to NREs in the generated code).

Run with nullable reference types enabled and clean up warnings on your mapping types; this drastically reduces Mapperly‑induced NREs.

2. Use custom logic for nested null‑sensitive properties

Where you previously relied on AutoMapper’s “it just works” behavior for nested paths, switch to null‑safe custom logic instead of direct property flattening.

Example:

[Mapper]
public partial class OrderMapper : MapperBase<Order, OrderDto>
{
    public override partial OrderDto Map(Order source);
    public override partial void Map(Order source, OrderDto destination);

    // Custom null-safe logic
    partial void Map(Order source, OrderDto destination)
    {
        destination.CustomerName = source.Customer?.Name ?? string.Empty;
    }
}

or use an AfterMap pattern in a partial method—key idea is: do the ?. and ?? yourself rather than relying on Mapperly to silently ignore nulls.

3. Align ABP Mapperly configuration

Ensure your module is correctly configured for Mapperly so that ObjectMapper.Map<,>() goes through Mapperly for that context:

using Volo.Abp.Mapperly;

[DependsOn(typeof(AbpMapperlyModule))]
public class MyMapperlyApplicationModule : AbpModule
{
    public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
    {
        // default Mapperly object mapper
        context.Services.AddMapperlyObjectMapper();

        // optional: contextual Mapperly mapper for this module
        context.Services.AddMapperlyObjectMapper<MyMapperlyApplicationModule>();
    }
}

Then, in your service:

public class MyAppService : ApplicationService
{
    public MyAppService()
    {
        ObjectMapperContext = typeof(MyMapperlyApplicationModule);
    }

    public Task<OrderDto> GetAsync(Order order)
    {
        var dto = ObjectMapper.Map<Order, OrderDto>(order); // Mapperly-based
        return Task.FromResult(dto);
    }
}

4. Systematically update problematic mappings

For the crashes you’re seeing now:

  • Find the mappings that flatten navigations (e.g. Customer.Name -> CustomerName, Parent.Child.GrandChild.Prop, etc.).
  • For each:
    • Make source navigations nullable where they can actually be null.
    • Make target properties nullable or give them a default (e.g. string.Empty) through custom code.
    • Replace AutoMapper‑style convention mapping with explicit null‑safe logic in Mapperly.

This is mechanical but can be scripted/assisted by IDE analyzers focusing on:

  • Non‑nullable DTO properties sourced from potentially nullable navigations.
  • Places where EF navigation is optional but declared non‑nullable.

C. Summary of what is and is not possible

  • Does ABP/Mapperly provide a global option to mimic AutoMapper’s null behavior?
    No. There is no framework‑level or Mapperly‑level setting that will:

    • Automatically skip assignments where the source navigation is null, or
    • Automatically assign default values for such cases.
  • Recommended migration strategy for large apps:

    1. Short‑term:
      • Keep AutoMapper around for existing mappings that count on its null semantics.
      • Introduce Mapperly only in new or refactored parts.
    2. Long‑term:
      • Gradually migrate modules to Mapperly by:
        • Fixing nullability in entities/DTOs.
        • Writing explicit null‑safe mapping logic for nested/navigational members.
        • Configuring ObjectMapperContext and AbpMapperlyModule properly per module.

  1. Solution

ABP does not provide a built‑in “synchronize / upsert and delete obsolete” helper for permission grants, but it is straightforward to implement on top of the existing permission management APIs.

The recommended approach for seeding permissions is:

  • Use an IDataSeedContributor.
  • Use IPermissionDefinitionManager (and/or your own configuration) to know which permissions should be granted.
  • Use IPermissionGrantRepository (or IPermissionGrantStore / IPermissionManager) to:
    • Read current grants for a given provider (e.g. a role or user) and tenant.
    • Insert missing grants.
    • Delete obsolete grants that are not in your current desired set.

Below is an example that performs full synchronization (“database must equal seed definition”) for a given role.

1.1. Define the desired permission set

Typically, you maintain the desired permissions in code (constants, config, etc.):

public static class MyPermissionSeed
{
    // Permission names; these should exist as defined permissions
    public static readonly string[] AdminRolePermissions =
    {
        "MyApp.Permissions.UserManagement",
        "MyApp.Permissions.Reports.View",
        "MyApp.Permissions.Reports.Edit",
        // ...
    };

    public const string ProviderName = "R"; // "R" = Role (same as RolePermissionValueProvider.ProviderName)
    public const string AdminRoleName = "admin"; // or your own role name
}

Note: For role permission provider name, ABP uses RolePermissionValueProvider.ProviderName (usually "R").

1.2. Implement a syncing IDataSeedContributor

This contributor will be executed by your DbMigrator and will:

  1. Resolve the admin role id.
  2. Load all existing permission grants for this role.
  3. Add missing ones.
  4. Delete obsolete ones.

        var validPermissionNames = new HashSet<string>(
            allPermissionDefinitions.Select(p => p.Name)
        );

        var desiredPermissionNames = MyPermissionSeed.AdminRolePermissions
            .Where(validPermissionNames.Contains)
            .ToHashSet();

        // 2) Load current grants for this provider (role) & tenant
        var currentGrants = await _permissionGrantRepository.GetListAsync(
            name: null,
            providerName: providerName,
            providerKey: providerKey,
            tenantId: context.TenantId
        );

        var currentPermissionNames = currentGrants
            .Select(g => g.Name)
            .ToHashSet();

        // 3) Determine which to add and which to delete
        var toAdd = desiredPermissionNames.Except(currentPermissionNames).ToList();
        var toDelete = currentPermissionNames.Except(desiredPermissionNames).ToList();

        // 4) Insert missing
        foreach (var permissionName in toAdd)
        {
            await _permissionGrantRepository.InsertAsync(
                new PermissionGrant(
                    GuidGenerator.Create(),
                    permissionName,
                    providerName,
                    providerKey,
                    context.TenantId
                ),
                autoSave: false
            );
        }

        // 5) Delete obsolete
        if (toDelete.Any())
        {
            foreach (var permissionName in toDelete)
            {
                var grant = currentGrants.FirstOrDefault(g => g.Name == permissionName);
                if (grant != null)
                {
                    await _permissionGrantRepository.DeleteAsync(grant, autoSave: false);
                }
            }
        }

        await uow.CompleteAsync();
    }
}

Important points:

  • Upsert behaviour:
    • “Insert” is handled by creating new PermissionGrant entities for the toAdd list.
    • “Update” is usually not needed because a grant record is just “permission granted”; if it exists, it’s already “true”.
  • Delete obsolete: we compute toDelete and remove those grants.
  • Multi‑tenancy:
    • Use DataSeedContext.TenantId to seed per tenant.
    • If you want to seed all tenants from host side, resolve tenant list and call SeedAsync (or the inner logic) for each.

1.3. Role Id Lookup example

You can use IdentityRoleManager (from Volo.Abp.Identity) to find the role id, wrapped in a small service:

using System;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Volo.Abp.Identity;

public interface IRoleIdLookupService
{
    Task<Guid?> GetRoleIdByNameAsync(string roleName, Guid? tenantId);
}

public class RoleIdLookupService : IRoleIdLookupService
{
    private readonly IdentityRoleManager _roleManager;

    public RoleIdLookupService(IdentityRoleManager roleManager)
    {
        _roleManager = roleManager;
    }

    public async Task<Guid?> GetRoleIdByNameAsync(string roleName, Guid? tenantId)
    {
        var role = await _roleManager.FindByNameAsync(roleName);
        return role?.Id;
    }
}

You can simplify this and inject IdentityRoleManager directly into the seed contributor if you prefer.

1.4. Where to place it

  • Place your PermissionSyncDataSeedContributor in a Domain project (e.g., *.Domain).
  • Ensure the DbMigrator project references the module that contains this contributor and the permission definitions (usually *.Application.Contracts or *.Domain.Shared for definitions).

  1. Solution

In your current state:

  • Tokens are being issued by https://auth.aaa.com/
  • All services (web, gateways, microservices) are rejecting them (invalid_token, issuer is invalid)
  • So no service can authenticate.

You must make issuer and authority 100% consistent everywhere, and in Kubernetes you typically also need to explicitly set ValidIssuers (and sometimes a SignatureValidator) in each service.

Do the following steps exactly.


1. AuthServer: define a fixed HTTPS issuer

In your AuthServer project module:

public override void PreConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
{
    var configuration = context.Services.GetConfiguration();

    PreConfigure<OpenIddictServerBuilder>(builder =>
    {
        // Must be the public URL of your AuthServer (the same URL you use from browser)
        builder.SetIssuer(new Uri(configuration["AuthServer:Authority"]!));
    });
}

And in AuthServer appsettings.Production.json or environment variables (in k8s):

"AuthServer": {
  "Authority": "https://auth.aaa.com",   // no trailing slash; code adds it
  "RequireHttpsMetadata": "true"
}

Important:

  • https://auth.aaa.com/.well-known/openid-configuration must be reachable from inside the cluster and from browsers.

2. All services: JWT bearer with explicit ValidIssuers

In every project that validates tokens (Angular backend, web app, web gateway, all microservices), configure authentication like this in the module:

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.JwtBearer;
using Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tokens;
using Volo.Abp;
using Volo.Abp.Modularity;

public class MyServiceHttpApiHostModule : AbpModule
{
    public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
    {
        var configuration = context.Services.GetConfiguration();

        context.Services.AddAuthentication(JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme)
            .AddAbpJwtBearer(options =>
            {
                // Must be the same public URL as in AuthServer
                options.Authority = configuration["AuthServer:Authority"]; // "https://auth.aaa.com"
                options.RequireHttpsMetadata = true;

                // Audience must match 'aud' claim in the token for this service
                options.Audience = "MyServiceName";

                // FIX: IDX10204 / invalid issuer in k8s
                options.TokenValidationParameters = new TokenValidationParameters
                {
                    ValidIssuers = new[]
                    {
                        configuration["AuthServer:Authority"]!.EnsureEndsWith('/') // "https://auth.aaa.com/"
                    }
                };

                // If you still get signature key resolution errors in k8s (IDX10500),
                // you can temporarily add this workaround:
                /*
                options.TokenValidationParameters.SignatureValidator = (token, parameters) =>
                {
                    var jwt = new Microsoft.IdentityModel.JsonWebTokens.JsonWebToken(token);
                    return jwt;
                };
                */
            });
    }
}

And in each service’s config (values via env in k8s):

"AuthServer": {
  "Authority": "https://auth.aaa.com",
  "RequireHttpsMetadata": "true"
}

Every service must use this same AuthServer:Authority.
Do not mix in http:// or internal hostnames here.


3. Internal client-to-service calls (IdentityClients)

If services call other services using client credentials (IdentityClients), also align their Authority:

"IdentityClients": {
  "Default": {
    "Authority": "https://auth.aaa.com",
    "ClientId": "MyService_Internal",
    "ClientSecret": "…",
    "GrantType": "client_credentials",
    "Scope": "MyScope"
  }
}

Again, same https://auth.aaa.com everywhere.


4. Verify inside Kubernetes

From a pod (e.g., admin microservice), run:

curl -k https://auth.aaa.com/.well-known/openid-configuration

You should see JSON whose:

  • issuer is https://auth.aaa.com/
  • all endpoints are https://auth.aaa.com/...

If that’s not true, fix DNS / ingress until it is.


5. If still no service authenticates

On one failing service (e.g., Administration microservice):

  1. Enable IdentityModel debug logs as in the article.

  2. Confirm that at startup or at first authenticated request it tries to fetch:

    https://auth.aaa.com/.well-known/openid-configuration

  3. If it instead goes to http://... or localhost, your Authority is still wrong in that service.

Once:

  • AuthServer issuer = https://auth.aaa.com/
  • All services AuthServer:Authority = https://auth.aaa.com
  • All services TokenValidationParameters.ValidIssuers include https://auth.aaa.com/

your invalid_token / issuer errors will disappear and the services will start authenticating requests.

  1. Solution

The new error:

WWW-Authenticate: Bearer error="invalid_token",
 error_description="The issuer 'https://auth.routilia.com/' is invalid"

means: the token’s iss = https://auth.routilia.com/ but the API that validates the token does not accept this issuer as valid.

Configure both AuthServer and all APIs / gateways so that:

  • The issuer in tokens is https://auth.routilia.com/
  • The JWT validation in every API explicitly allows that issuer

1. AuthServer: set the issuer

In your AuthServer module:

public override void PreConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
{
    var configuration = context.Services.GetConfiguration();

    PreConfigure<OpenIddictServerBuilder>(builder =>
    {
        // Must be the public URL of your AuthServer
        builder.SetIssuer(new Uri(configuration["AuthServer:Authority"]!));
    });
}

And in appsettings.json (or k8s env vars) of AuthServer:

"AuthServer": {
  "Authority": "https://auth.routilia.com",
  "RequireHttpsMetadata": "true"
}

Make sure the AuthServer is actually reachable at https://auth.routilia.com/.well-known/openid-configuration from inside the cluster.


2. APIs / Gateways: configure JWT validation

In every service that receives bearer tokens (web app, public web, gateways, microservices), configure JWT like this:

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.JwtBearer;
using Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tokens;
using Volo.Abp;
using Volo.Abp.Modularity;

public class YourServiceModule : AbpModule
{
    public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
    {
        var configuration = context.Services.GetConfiguration();

        context.Services.AddAuthentication(JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme)
            .AddAbpJwtBearer(options =>
            {
                options.Authority = configuration["AuthServer:Authority"];   // "https://auth.routilia.com"
                options.Audience = "YourServiceName";                        // must match token 'aud'

                options.TokenValidationParameters = new TokenValidationParameters
                {
                    // Accept the issuer seen in the token:
                    ValidIssuers = new[]
                    {
                        configuration["AuthServer:Authority"].EnsureEndsWith('/')
                        // -> "https://auth.routilia.com/"
                    }
                };
            });
    }
}

And in appsettings.json or k8s env of each API:

"AuthServer": {
  "Authority": "https://auth.routilia.com",
  "RequireHttpsMetadata": "true"
}

If you previously used some internal HTTP URL (like http://auth-svc or http://localhost) as Authority or issuer, remove it and consistently use the same HTTPS public URL everywhere.


3. If you also use IdentityClients (for internal HTTP calls)

For services that call others via IdentityModel (client credentials), ensure their IdentityClients:Default:Authority also points to the same HTTPS URL:

"IdentityClients": {
  "Default": {
    "Authority": "https://auth.routilia.com",
    "ClientId": "YourClient",
    "ClientSecret": "YourSecret",
    "GrantType": "client_credentials",
    "Scope": "YourScope"
  }
}

Once:

  • AuthServer issuer (SetIssuer) = https://auth.routilia.com/
  • All APIs’ Authority and ValidIssuers include https://auth.routilia.com/

the invalid_token / “issuer is invalid” error will disappear.

  1. Solution

That log means the API that validates the token has no issuer configured in its TokenValidationParameters, so it can’t match the iss in the token.
This is common when running behind Kubernetes / reverse proxy.

Configure JWT bearer explicitly in the service where the error happens (web app, gateway, microservice, etc.), and set ValidIssuers to your AuthServer authority (the public URL that issues the token).

Example (in the API / gateway project):

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.JwtBearer;
using Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tokens;
using Volo.Abp;
using Volo.Abp.Modularity;

public class YourApiModule : AbpModule
{
    public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
    {
        var configuration = context.Services.GetConfiguration();

        context.Services.AddAuthentication(JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme)
            .AddAbpJwtBearer(options =>
            {
                options.Authority = configuration["AuthServer:Authority"]; // e.g. "https://your-authserver.yourdomain.com"
                options.Audience = "YourServiceName"; // must match 'aud' in token

                options.TokenValidationParameters = new TokenValidationParameters
                {
                    // Fixes: IDX10204: Unable to validate issuer...
                    ValidIssuers = new[]
                    {
                        configuration["AuthServer:Authority"].EnsureEndsWith('/')
                    }
                };
            });
    }
}

Key points:

  • AuthServer:Authority must be the public URL of the AuthServer that issues the token (for example: https://auth.yourdomain.com/), and you must use the same value in:
    • The AuthServer configuration (OpenIddict issuer).
    • The clients (Angular app, web app, gateways, microservices).
  • Make sure it ends with / (issuer in tokens generated by OpenIddict normally does).
  • If you still get issuer-related issues under K8s because the AuthServer can’t download keys / metadata properly, you can additionally customize token validation like in the support ticket:
context.Services.AddAuthentication(JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme)
    .AddAbpJwtBearer(options =>
    {
        options.Authority = configuration["AuthServer:Authority"];
        options.Audience = "YourServiceName";

        options.TokenValidationParameters = new TokenValidationParameters
        {
            ValidIssuers = new[]
            {
                configuration["AuthServer:Authority"].EnsureEndsWith('/')
            },

            // Optional workaround when keys cannot be resolved in K8s:
            SignatureValidator = (token, parameters) =>
            {
                var jwt = new Microsoft.IdentityModel.JsonWebTokens.JsonWebToken(token);
                return jwt;
            }
        };
    });

Also verify on the AuthServer side (OpenIddict):

PreConfigure<OpenIddictServerBuilder>(builder =>
{
    var configuration = context.Services.GetConfiguration();
    builder.SetIssuer(new Uri(configuration["AuthServer:Authority"]));
});

So the issuer in the token and the authority / valid issuer in your APIs are identical.

Answer

1. Solution

Inside Docker, NuGet SSL problems usually come from the container not trusting the same certificates as your host (corporate proxy, dev HTTPS certs, man‑in‑the‑middle scanners, etc.). Below are concrete ways to fix this when building/running ABP apps in Docker.


A. If error is during dotnet restore (NuGet feed SSL)

  1. Check the exact error message
    Most common messages are like:

    • The SSL connection could not be established
    • Unable to load the service index for source 'https://....'
    • Authentication failed because the remote party has closed the transport stream
  2. If you are behind a corporate proxy with its own CA

    You must import the proxy’s root certificate into the Docker image so dotnet/NuGet trusts it.

    Typical Dockerfile pattern (Linux Debian/Ubuntu base images):

FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:8.0 AS build
   WORKDIR /src

   # Copy your corporate/proxy root certificate to the image
   COPY mycorp-root-ca.crt /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/mycorp-root-ca.crt

   # Register certificate in container trust store
   RUN update-ca-certificates

   # Now restore & build
   COPY *.sln ./
   COPY src/ ./src/
   RUN dotnet restore
   RUN dotnet build -c Release -o /app/build

Notes:

  • Export the root CA from your company proxy as mycorp-root-ca.crt (Base‑64).
  • After update-ca-certificates, the dotnet CLI and NuGet will use the updated trust store.
  1. If using a private NuGet feed with self‑signed certificate

    • Either:
      • Replace the feed certificate with one issued by a trusted CA (recommended), or
      • Import that feed’s root/intermediate certificate into the Docker image using the same pattern as above.
  2. Temporarily test by disabling HTTPS verification (not recommended for production)

    Only to confirm it’s an SSL trust issue, you can temporarily point to an HTTP feed (if available) or use another public feed (like nuget.org) in NuGet.config and see if restore succeeds. If yes, then the problem is definitely certificate/trust.


B. If issue is with local dev HTTPS (Kestrel / reverse proxy) for ABP

When developing ABP apps with Docker (especially microservice template), you often use local HTTPS endpoints. For development, ABP docs recommend using mkcert to create locally trusted certificates:

  1. Install mkcert on your host

    Follow mkcert’s guide:

    • Install mkcert
    • Run mkcert -install
    • Generate a cert for your dev host, e.g.:
mkcert localhost
  • You’ll get something like localhost.pem and localhost-key.pem (or .crt/.key).
  1. Use mkcert for your development certificates in Docker

    Typical pattern:

FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/aspnet:8.0 AS base
   WORKDIR /app

   # Copy mkcert-generated certificate into container
   COPY certs/localhost.pem /https/aspnetapp.crt
   COPY certs/localhost-key.pem /https/aspnetapp.key

   # Configure Kestrel via environment in docker-compose.yml:
   # ASPNETCORE_Kestrel__Certificates__Default__Path=/https/aspnetapp.crt
   # ASPNETCORE_Kestrel__Certificates__Default__KeyPath=/https/aspnetapp.key

This way both your browser and the container trust the same dev certificate.


C. If you’re hitting nuget.abp.io (ABP Commercial feeds) via HTTPS

  1. Verify the feed URL and token on the host
abp login <your-email>
   dotnet nuget list source

Ensure the ABP feed is HTTPS and works locally.

  1. Propagate any custom CA/proxy trust to Docker

    If your environment injects certificates (proxy, SSL inspection), you must import that CA as shown in section A.

  2. Avoid turning off SSL validation
    Don’t use DOTNET_SYSTEM_NET_HTTP_USESOCKETSHTTPHANDLER=false or similar workarounds in production – fix trust instead.


D. Quick checklist

  • Can you curl https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json inside the container?
    • If not, it’s an SSL / CA trust issue → import root CA.
  • Are you using a corporate proxy?
    • Configure proxy for Docker and add proxy CA to container trust.
  • Using mkcert for dev ABP microservices?
    • Generate certs on host and copy them into container; use in Kestrel config.

  1. Solution

The runtime error:

MissingMethodException: Method not found:
'Void Volo.Abp.Localization.LanguageInfo..ctor(System.String, System.String, System.String, System.String)'

is caused by a version mismatch between your ABP Framework packages and the LeptonX theme package.

  • You are using ABP 8.3.x
  • But LeptonX is 3.1.x

In ABP 8.3 the LanguageInfo type (from Volo.Abp.Localization) exposes only the 3‑parameter constructor.
LeptonX 3.1 was compiled against an earlier ABP version where the 4‑parameter constructor still existed. At runtime, the CLR tries to call that old 4‑parameter constructor and fails with MissingMethodException.

Fix

  1. Open your web project .csproj and update the LeptonX package:
<PackageReference Include="Volo.Abp.AspNetCore.Mvc.UI.Theme.LeptonX" Version="3.3.*" />

(or explicitly, e.g. 3.3.0/3.3.1, matching your ABP 8.3 minor version).

  1. Ensure all ABP packages are aligned on the same version (8.3.x):
dotnet list package

If you see mixed versions, update them so every Volo.Abp.* package is 8.3.x and LeptonX is 3.3.x.

  1. Clean and rebuild:
abp clean
dotnet restore
dotnet build
dotnet run

After upgrading LeptonX to 3.3.x, it will be compiled against the correct LanguageInfo constructor (3 parameters), and the MissingMethodException will be gone.

  1. Solution

In the EasyCRM Angular app the text shown in the browser tab is the HTML <title> tag of the Angular app, not an ABP setting.

Change it in angular/src/index.html:

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <!-- CHANGE THIS LINE -->
    <title>My New CRM Title</title>
    <base href="/" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />
    <link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="favicon.ico" />
  </head>
  <body>
    <app-root></app-root>
  </body>
</html>
  • Save the file.
  • Rebuild / restart the Angular app (yarn start or npm start).
  • Refresh the browser (hard refresh / clear cache if needed).

If you later want localized, per‑page titles, you can additionally use a custom TitleStrategy (as shown in the second source below), but for simply replacing “MyProjectName” the index.html <title> tag is the place to change.

  1. From your description, what we know
  • Each API (1, 2, 3) can be called directly with a token → APIs 2 & 3 accept and process a token correctly.
  • When API‑1 calls API‑2/3 via ABP remote service, you now get 403 Forbidden after upgrading everything from v9 → v10.
  • Same architecture worked on v9.

That almost always means:

  • The token that API‑1 sends to API‑2/3 is no longer authorized after the v10 upgrade, even though user tokens work.

v10 moved everything fully to OpenIddict and tightened validation. You must realign:

  • The client representing API‑1 in the AuthServer.
  • The scopes/audiences that APIs 2 & 3 accept.
  • The token acquisition & attachment code used by API‑1.

Below is a concrete, minimal set of checks/fixes that resolves this in practice.


  1. Verify the inter‑service token that API‑1 uses

In API‑1:

  1. Log the access token just before ABP sends it:
public class LoggingHttpClientAuthenticator : IRemoteServiceHttpClientAuthenticator, ISingletonDependency
{
    private readonly IRemotingTokenStore _tokenStore;
    private readonly ILogger<LoggingHttpClientAuthenticator> _logger;

    public LoggingHttpClientAuthenticator(
        IRemotingTokenStore tokenStore,
        ILogger<LoggingHttpClientAuthenticator> logger)
    {
        _tokenStore = tokenStore;
        _logger = logger;
    }

    public async Task Authenticate(RemoteServiceHttpClientAuthenticateContext context)
    {
        context.Request.Headers.Authorization = null;
        var token = await _tokenStore.GetTokenAsync(CancellationToken.None);

        _logger.LogInformation("Outgoing inter-service access token: {Token}", token);

        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(token))
        {
            context.Request.Headers.Add("Authorization", $"Bearer {token}");
        }
    }
}
  1. Take that token string and call an endpoint on API‑2 directly with Postman:
  • Authorization: Bearer <copied-token>

If you still get 403, then the problem is not ABP remote services, but access token configuration / scopes / audiences between AuthServer, API‑1 client, and APIs 2 & 3.


  1. Fix OpenIddict client/scopes for API‑1 in AuthServer

In your AuthServer (Identity service), open your OpenIddictDataSeedContributor (or equivalent) and check the application (client) that represents API‑1.

It must have:

  • client_type = confidential
  • Grant type: client_credentials
  • Scopes including the API scopes of services 2 & 3.

Roughly like the official template:

// scopes
await CreateScopesAsync(context, new[]
{
    "Api2",
    "Api3",
    OpenIddictConstants.Scopes.Email,
    OpenIddictConstants.Scopes.Profile,
    OpenIddictConstants.Scopes.Roles
});

// client for API-1
await CreateApplicationAsync(
    name: "Api1_Internal_Client",
    type: OpenIddictConstants.ClientTypes.Confidential,
    consentType: OpenIddictConstants.ConsentTypes.Systematic,
    displayName: "Api1 internal client",
    secret: "VERY-SECRET",
    grantTypes: new[]
    {
        OpenIddictConstants.GrantTypes.ClientCredentials
    },
    scopes: new[]
    {
        "Api2",
        "Api3"
    });

Make sure the scope names you put here match what APIs 2 & 3 are configured to accept (next section).

If the client was migrated from IdentityServer4 config, the allowed scopes/resources often need to be re‑created in this OpenIddict seeding.


  1. Align API‑2 and API‑3 resource configuration (audience & scope)

In each resource API (2 and 3) you normally have something like this in the module’s ConfigureServices:

public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
{
    var configuration = context.Services.GetConfiguration();

    context.Services.AddAuthentication("Bearer")
        .AddJwtBearer("Bearer", options =>
        {
            options.Authority = configuration["AuthServer:Authority"]; // e.g. https://auth.mycompany.com
            options.RequireHttpsMetadata = true;
            options.Audience = "Api2"; // or "Api3" for the 3rd API
        });

    // ...
}

Or, if you use OpenIddict validation:

PreConfigure<OpenIddictValidationBuilder>(builder =>
{
    builder.AddAudiences("Api2"); // or "Api3"
    builder.UseLocalServer();
    builder.UseAspNetCore();
});

Now match that:

  • Audience / AddAudiences("Api2") must equal the scope name you granted to API‑1’s client (previous step).
  • If API‑1 is requesting a token with scope Api2 Api3 but API‑2 is configured with Audience = "MyApi2" or something else, the token will be considered not for this API, and authorization will fail.

So:

  • Decide a scope name for each API, e.g. "Api2" and "Api3".
  • Use those consistently:
    • In OpenIddictDataSeedContributor (scope + client’s allowed scopes).
    • In the resource APIs’ JWT/OpenIddict validation config (Audience or AddAudiences).

  1. Ensure API‑1 actually requests the correct scopes

Your IRemotingTokenStore (or equivalent) in API‑1 must request the same scopes:

public class RemotingClientOptions
{
    public string ClientName { get; set; }
    public string ClientSecret { get; set; }
    public string Scope { get; set; } // e.g. "Api2 Api3"
}

appsettings.json in API‑1:

"AuthServer": {
  "Authority": "https://<your-auth-server>"
},
"Remoting": {
  "Client": {
    "ClientName": "Api1_Internal_Client",
    "ClientSecret": "VERY-SECRET",
    "Scope": "Api2 Api3"
  }
}

Token store (simplified):

var tokenResponse = await client.RequestClientCredentialsTokenAsync(
    new ClientCredentialsTokenRequest
    {
        Address = discovery.TokenEndpoint,
        ClientId = clientId,
        ClientSecret = clientSecret,
        Scope = scope // "Api2 Api3"
    },
    cancellationToken);

If in v9 you used older IdentityServer4 client‑credentials with different scope names, after migrating to OpenIddict those old names will not work. You must request scopes that actually exist in OpenIddict.


  1. Re‑confirm the remote service wiring in API‑1 (non‑auth piece)

Once the token and scopes are fixed, your existing ABP remote service setup is usually fine:

// appsettings.json of API-1
"RemoteServices": {
  "Api2": {
    "BaseUrl": "https://api2.yourdomain"
  },
  "Api3": {
    "BaseUrl": "https://api3.yourdomain"
  }
}
// in API-1 module
context.Services.AddHttpClientProxies(
    typeof(Api2ApplicationContractsModule).Assembly,
    remoteServiceConfigurationName: "Api2"
);

context.Services.AddHttpClientProxies(
    typeof(Api3ApplicationContractsModule).Assembly,
    remoteServiceConfigurationName: "Api3"
);

Together with an IRemoteServiceHttpClientAuthenticator that attaches the bearer token, those parts typically don’t change between v9 and v10.


  1. Summary of what to actually change

  2. In AuthServer

    • Define / verify scopes: one per API (e.g. Api2, Api3).
    • Define API‑1’s confidential client with grant type client_credentials and allowed scopes Api2, Api3.
  3. In APIs 2 & 3

    • Configure JWT/OpenIddict validation audience to Api2 / Api3 (same as scopes above).
  4. In API‑1

    • Configure the client credentials request to ask for Scope = "Api2 Api3".
    • Keep using IRemoteServiceHttpClientAuthenticator to attach that token.
  5. Debug once

    • Copy the exact token from API‑1 logs and call API‑2 with it in Postman.
    • When that returns 200, ABP dynamic remote service calls will also return 200 (403 disappears).

  1. Understand what 403 means in this scenario

A 403 from API‑2 / API‑3 means:

  • The HTTP call from API‑1 reaches API‑2/3.
  • The access token is present, but authorization fails (policy / permission / scope / client not allowed).

So the problem is not “remote service call configuration”, but application‑to‑application authorization after the v9→v10 upgrade (where identity/auth stack has changed).


  1. Checklist on API‑2 / API‑3 (the services being called)

On each modular layered API (2 & 3):

  1. Check the authorize attributes

    • If your application service or controller has:
[Authorize("SomePolicy")]
     // or
     [Authorize(MyPermissions.Foo.Bar)]
 ensure that the **principal represented by the token coming from API‑1** is actually allowed for that policy / permission.
  1. If you use permissions, ensure the calling client has them

    When you use ABP’s permission system on APIs:

    • Each service must define its permissions in its Application.Contracts module.
    • Those permissions must be granted either:
      • to the user represented in the token, or
      • to the client (if you use client‑credentials flow and ClientPermissionValueProvider).

    In a microservice/zero‑trust setup this is typically done via a central identity/permission service; see the “Zero Trust Microservice Architecture with ABP Framework” article for a complete pattern:

// Example central permission check service
   public interface IPermissionCheckerAppService : IApplicationService
   {
       Task<bool> CheckPermissionAsync(CheckPermissionInput input);
       Task<MultiplePermissionGrantResultDto> CheckPermissionsAsync(CheckPermissionsInput input);
   }
  1. Check that the token subject is what you expect

    • If API‑1 calls 2/3 using client credentials, the token will represent a client, not a user.
    • If your permissions / policies assume a user (e.g. they check ICurrentUser.IsAuthenticated or user‑based permissions), they will deny requests coming from a pure client token.
    • In that case either:
      • Switch your authorization to client‑based permissions, or
      • Call APIs using a user token (on behalf of the end user) instead of client credentials.

  1. Checklist on API‑1 (the caller)

On the single‑layer API‑1, which calls 2 & 3 via remote service / HTTP client:

  1. Confirm how the token is added to outgoing calls

    You should have something equivalent to an IRemoteServiceHttpClientAuthenticator that sets the Authorization: Bearer <token> header for all dynamic client proxy calls, e.g.:

[Dependency(ReplaceServices = true)]
   [ExposeServices(typeof(IRemoteServiceHttpClientAuthenticator))]
   public class SampleServiceHttpClientAuthenticator :
       IRemoteServiceHttpClientAuthenticator, ISingletonDependency
   {
       private readonly IRemotingTokenStore _tokenStore;

       public async Task Authenticate(RemoteServiceHttpClientAuthenticateContext context)
       {
           context.Request.Headers.Authorization = null;
           var token = await _tokenStore.GetTokenAsync(CancellationToken.None);
           if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(token))
           {
               context.Request.Headers.Add("Authorization", $"Bearer {token}");
           }
       }
   }

If after the upgrade this authenticator is not registered or not executed, API‑2/3 will receive a request without a valid token and return 401/403.

  1. Check client credentials used by API‑1

    If API‑1 uses client credentials to obtain a token (as in the “Zero Trust Microservice Architecture” sample):

    • Verify in your configuration (e.g. appsettings.json) that:
      • AuthServer:Authority points to the correct identity server.
      • Remoting:Client:ClientName, ClientSecret, and Scope (or equivalent) match a client that exists and is allowed to call API‑2/3.
    • Ensure that this client is granted all required scopes / API resources / permissions for endpoints in API‑2 and 3.
  2. Ensure RemoteServices base URLs are correct

    In API‑1, for each remote service:

"RemoteServices": {
     "Service2": {
       "BaseUrl": "https://<api2-host>"
     },
     "Service3": {
       "BaseUrl": "https://<api3-host>"
     }
   }

and in your module:

context.Services.AddHttpClientProxies(
       typeof(Service2ApplicationContractsModule).Assembly,
       remoteServiceConfigurationName: "Service2"
   );

   context.Services.AddHttpClientProxies(
       typeof(Service3ApplicationContractsModule).Assembly,
       remoteServiceConfigurationName: "Service3"
   );

Misconfigured remote service name or base URL won’t usually produce 403, but verify them while you’re here.


  1. Typical concrete fix path

Based on similar ABP microservice setups (including the referenced zero‑trust sample):

  1. Create/verify a client in your identity server representing API‑1, with:

    • Grant type: client credentials.
    • Allowed scopes/resources: APIs exposed by services 2 and 3.
  2. Grant required permissions to that client (if you use centralized permission management and client permission provider).

  3. Configure API‑1 to use those client credentials when requesting tokens and to attach the token on all remote calls (via an IRemoteServiceHttpClientAuthenticator).

  4. Align [Authorize] usage on API‑2 / API‑3 so that:

    • They accept a client token where appropriate, or
    • They check permissions in a way compatible with your token (client vs user).
  5. Test directly with the same token

    • From API‑1 logs or debugger, copy the access token it is using.
    • Call an endpoint on API‑2 / API‑3 via Postman using that exact token.
    • If you still get 403, your issue is purely authorization (permissions / scopes) on API‑2/3.

  1. If you want a hardened pattern

The Zero Trust Microservice Architecture with ABP Framework article shows a complete, working pattern of:

  • Centralized identity/permission microservice.
  • Each service having its own client.
  • IRemotingTokenStore + custom IRemoteServiceHttpClientAuthenticator for inter‑service calls.
  • Remote permission checks and auditing.

You can align your solution with that pattern to make your inter‑service calls and permissions robust.


  1. Summary

After upgrading to ABP 10, you must:

  • Ensure API‑1 obtains a valid token as a client and attaches it to all remote calls.
  • Ensure API‑2 & API‑3 accept that token and grant it the necessary permissions / scopes.
  • Check [Authorize] attributes and permission assignments accordingly.

Once client credentials, scopes/permissions, and the HTTP client authenticator are correctly configured, the 403s from your modular APIs will stop.
