Incorrect bootstrap.xml after update from AMQ 7.12.3 to AMQ 7.13

[RobertFloor]

Summary

We performed an upgrade from AMQ version 7.12.3 to 7.13 using an Ansible playbook. Following the upgrade, the bootstrap.xml file was incorrectly generated. As a result, the web console fails to start. The content of the bootstrap.xml file appears to be outdated or incompatible, likely due to changes in the Hawtio console introduced in AMQ 7.13. We're using Ansible Galaxy role version 2.3.2 for this deployment.

Below is the resulting bootstrap.xml file:

   <!-- artemis.URI.instance is parsed from artemis.instance by the CLI startup.
        This is to avoid situations where you could have spaces or special characters on this URI -->
   <server configuration="file:/opt/amq/amq-broker/etc//broker.xml"/>

   <!-- The web server is only bound to localhost by default -->
   <web path="web" rootRedirectLocation="console">


       <binding name="artemis" uri="https://0.0.0.0:8161" keyStorePath="/opt/amq/amq-broker/etc/identity.ks" keyStorePassword="d7162f62-504d-4e17-8ea6-7160092b6f4c">
           <app name="branding" url="redhat-branding" war="redhat-branding.war"/>
           <app name="plugin" url="artemis-plugin" war="artemis-plugin.war"/>
           <app name="console" url="console" war="hawtio.war"/>
           <app name="metrics" url="metrics" war="metrics.war"/>
       </binding>
   </web>

This results in a broker does not want to start
