References #185.

Cause

The C8.8 docker-compose.yaml migration publishes the consolidated orchestration
container's REST API/UI on host port 8088 (the example app itself uses 8080), but
application-c8sm.yml still pointed the Camunda client at the old port 8081 and no
longer set a gRPC address — so process deployment and every REST call hit a dead port.

Fix

  • application-c8sm.yml: rest-address: http://localhost:8088 (was :8081), add explicit
    grpc-address: http://localhost:26500, drop the obsolete tasklist.base-url.
  • README.md: document the 8080 (app) vs 8088 (engine UI, demo/demo) split.

Verified

docker compose up brings up a healthy camunda/camunda:8.8.2; REST API v2 on :8088
returns 200 while the old :8081 is connection-refused; the app boots and configures the
Camunda basic-auth client against :8088.

Remaining blocker but out of scope

The example still can't fully start on develop: the c8 adapter is pinned to 2026.07.1,
which is built for Spring Boot 4 / Camunda 8.9, while this repo runs Spring Boot 3.5.16
(duplicate healthContributorRegistry bean + httpclient5 method mismatch).
This is addressed in Issue: #267

Cause: the C8.8 docker-compose migration moved the orchestration REST API/UI
to host port 8088 (the app itself uses 8080), but application-c8sm.yml still
pointed the Camunda client at the old port 8081 and no longer set a gRPC
address, so deployment and REST calls failed against a dead port.

Fix: point the client at grpc-address :26500 / rest-address :8088 (matching
docker-compose.yaml) and document the 8080-vs-8088 split in the README.
