Document Overview

  • This document contains instructions to install Apache Fortress 2.0.3 Core, Web, Rest and ApacheDS.

SECTION 1. Prerequisites

Minimum hardware requirements:

  • 2 Cores
  • 4GB RAM

Minimum software requirements:

  • Centos or Debian Machine
  • Java SDK 8
  • Apache Maven3++

Everything else covered in steps that follow. Tested on Debian & Centos systems.


SECTION 2. ApacheDS Installation

  1. Download and install Apache Directory Server

a. Download either the 32 or 64-bit linux binary

b. For 32-bit (as sudo or root):

chmod a+x *.bin
./apacheds-[version]-32bit.bin

b. For 64-bit (as sudo or root):

chmod a+x *.bin
./apacheds-[version]-64bit.bin

Accept the defaults.

  1. Edit ApacheDS conf file
sudo vi /opt/apacheds-[version]/conf/wrapper.conf
  1. Add location of java:
wrapper.java.command=/usr/bin/java

contains fully qualified location of target machine's java.

  1. Save and exit.

  2. After installation start the directory server process. From system command prompt (as sudo or root):

/etc/init.d/apacheds-[version]-default start
  1. Check the status of server process. From system command prompt (as sudo or root):
/etc/init.d/apacheds-[version]-default status
ApacheDS - default is running (70041).

SECTION 3. Apache Fortress Core Setup

  1. Download the package: a. from git:
git clone --branch 2.0.3 https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/directory-fortress-core.git
cd directory-fortress-core

b. or download package:

wget http://www.apache.org/dist/directory/fortress/dist/2.0.3/fortress-core-2.0.3-source-release.zip
unzip fortress-core-2.0.3-source-release.zip
cd fortress-core-2.0.3
  1. Prepare the package:
cp build.properties.example build.properties

build.properties.example contains the apacheds default config. Learn more about the config here: README-CONFIG

  1. Prepare your terminal for execution of maven commands.
export JAVA_HOME=...
export M2_HOME=...
export PATH=$PATH:$M2_HOME/bin
  1. Build fortress core. This step will generate config artifacts using settings from build.properties.
mvn install
  1. Import Fortress ldap schema into ApacheDS server.

There are many ways to import an ldif file into an LDAP server like ApacheDS. For example an LDAP browser like Apache Directory Studio can be used. This guide shows how to use the OpenLDAP client.

a. Test to see if it is already installed. From the command prompt enter:

ldapmodify

b. If the command was not found we need to install the OpenLDAP client:

i. For Redhat / Centos based systems:

yum install -y openldap-clients

ii. Else for Debian based systems:

sudo apt-get install ldap-utils
  1. Load the Apache Fortress schema into ApacheDS server.

Load the fortress schema to ApacheDS instance using ldapmodify command.

ldapmodify -h localhost -p 10389 -D uid=admin,ou=system -w secret -a -f ./ldap/schema/apacheds-fortress.ldif

SECTION 4. Apache Fortress Core Integration Test

  1. From fortress core base folder, enter the following commands:
mvn install -Dload.file=./ldap/setup/refreshLDAPData.xml
mvn install -Dload.file=./ldap/setup/DelegatedAdminManagerLoad.xml

These will build the Directory Information Tree (DIT), create the config and data policies needed for the integration test to follow.

  1. Next, enter the following command:
mvn -Dtest=FortressJUnitTest test

Tests the APIs against your LDAP server.

  1. Verify the tests worked:
Tests run: Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 372.708 sec - in org.apache.directory.fortress.core.impl.FortressJUnitTest

Results:

Tests run: Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0

mvn -Dtest=FortressJUnitTest test
  1. Verify that worked also:
Tests Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 778.501 sec - in org.apache.directory.fortress.core.impl.FortressJUnitTest

Results :

Tests run: Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0

Notice more tests ran this time vs the first time, due to teardown.

Test Notes:

  • If tests complete without errors Fortress works with your Apache Directory server.
  • These tests load thousands of objects into the target ldap server.
  • Warning messages are negative tests in action.
  1. Optional sections in the README file:
  • SECTION 11. Instructions to run the Apache Fortress Command Line Interpreter (CLI).
  • SECTION 12. Instructions to run the Apache Fortress Command Console.
  • SECTION 13. Instructions to build and test the Apache Fortress samples.
  • SECTION 14. Instructions to performance test.

SECTION 5. Apache Tomcat Setup

During this section, you will be asked to setup Apache Tomcat 8 and prepare for usage with Apache Fortress

  1. Download and prepare the package:
wget http://archive.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-8/v8.0.30/bin/apache-tomcat-8.0.30.tar.gz
tar -xvf apache-tomcat-8.0.30.tar.gz
sudo mv apache-tomcat-8.0.30 /usr/local/tomcat8

Change the tomcat version as neeeded - v7 and beyond are ok. For BSD variants (i.e. Mac) append / to the folder name above on mv command.*

  1. Download the fortress realm proxy jar into tomcat/lib folder:
sudo wget http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/apache/directory/fortress/fortress-realm-proxy/2.0.3/fortress-realm-proxy-2.0.3.jar -P /usr/local/tomcat8/lib
  1. Prepare tomcat fortress usage:
sudo vi /usr/local/tomcat8/conf/tomcat-users.xml
  1. Add tomcat user to deploy fortress:
<role rolename="manager-script"/>
<role rolename="manager-gui"/>
<user username="tcmanager" password="m@nager123" roles="manager-script"/>
<user username="tcmanagergui" password="m@nager123" roles="manager-gui"/>
  1. Save and exit tomcat-users.xml file

  2. Configure Tomcat as a service (optional)

a. Edit the config file:

vi /etc/init.d/tomcat

b. Add the following:

#!/bin/bash
# description: Tomcat Start Stop Restart
# processname: tomcat
# chkconfig: 234 20 80
CATALINA_HOME=/usr/local/tomcat8
case $1 in
start)
sh $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh
;;
stop)
sh $CATALINA_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh
;;
restart)
sh $CATALINA_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh
sh $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh
;;
esac
exit 0

c. Add the init script to startup for run level 2, 3 and 4:

cd /etc/init.d
chmod 755 tomcat
chkconfig --add tomcat
chkconfig --level 234 tomcat on
  1. Start tomcat server:

a. If running Tomcat as a service:

service tomcat start

b. Else

sudo /usr/local/tomcat8/bin/startup.sh
  1. Verify clean logs after startup:
tail -f -n10000 /usr/local/tomcat8/logs/catalina.out
  1. Verify setup by signing onto the Tomcat Manager app with credentials userId: tcmanagergui, password: m@nager123
http://hostname:8080/manager

SECTION 6. Apache Fortress Rest Setup

During this section, you will be asked to setup Apache Fortress Rest Application

  1. Download the package:

a. from git:

git clone --branch 2.0.3 https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/directory-fortress-enmasse.git
cd directory-fortress-enmasse

b. or download package:

wget http://www.apache.org/dist/directory/fortress/dist/2.0.3/fortress-rest-2.0.3-source-release.zip
unzip fortress-rest-2.0.3-source-release.zip
cd fortress-rest-2.0.3
  1. Prepare:
cp ../[FORTRESS-CORE-HOME]/config/fortress.properties src/main/resources

where FORTRESS-CORE-HOME is package location on your machine

  1. Build, perform fortress rest test policy load and deploy to Tomcat:
mvn clean install -Dload.file=./src/main/resources/FortressRestServerPolicy.xml tomcat:deploy
  1. Redeploy (if need be):
mvn tomcat:redeploy
  1. Smoke test:
mvn test -Dtest=EmTest

SECTION 7. Apache Fortress Web Setup

During this section, you will be asked to setup Apache Fortress Web Application

  1. Download the package:

a. from git:

git clone --branch 2.0.3 https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/directory-fortress-commander.git
cd directory-fortress-commander

b. or download package:

wget http://www.apache.org/dist/directory/fortress/dist/2.0.3/fortress-web-2.0.3-source-release.zip
unzip fortress-web-2.0.3-source-release.zip
cd fortress-web-2.0.3
  1. Prepare:
cp ../[FORTRESS-CORE-HOME]/config/fortress.properties src/main/resources

where FORTRESS-CORE-HOME is package location on your machine

  1. Build, perform fortress web test policy load and deploy to Tomcat:
mvn clean install -Dload.file=./src/main/resources/FortressWebDemoUsers.xml tomcat:deploy
  1. Redeploy (if need be):
mvn tomcat:redeploy
  1. Open browser and test (creds: test/password):
http://hostname:8080/fortress-web
  1. Click on the links, to pull up various views on the data stored in the directory.

  2. Run the Selenium Web driver integration tests with Firefox (default):

mvn test -Dtest=FortressWebSeleniumITCase
  1. Run the tests using Chrome:
mvn test -Dtest=FortressWebSeleniumITCase -Dweb.driver=chrome

Note: The Selenium tests require that:

  • Either Firefox or Chrome installed to target machine.
  • FORTRESS_CORE_HOME/FortressJUnitTest successfully run. This will load some test data to grind on.
  • FortressWebDemoUsers policy loaded into target LDAP server.
