Introduction

Once you have created your project, you can start adapting it to your own needs and requirements.

Deployment directory

Currently, Syncope needs two base directories to be defined:

  • bundles - where ConnId bundles are stored (check what a connector bundle is);
  • log - where all system logs are written.

For example, you can create directories as follows:

$ mkdir /opt/syncope
$ mkdir /opt/syncope/bundles
$ mkdir /opt/syncope/log

Internal storage

Internal storage is a database where all information and configurations are stored.

You may want to setup some default content to be loaded on internal storage upon schema creation: for this you need to edit

core/src/main/resources/content.xml

.

Please note that Syncope core will populate internal storage with provided content only if the corresponding database is empty, i.e. does not contain any table or view.

Depending on your DBMS, you will need to change your project setup accordingly; modify the content of

core/src/main/resources/persistence.properties

as indicated in the following.

PostgreSQL

jpa.driverClassName=org.postgresql.Driver
jpa.url=jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/syncope
jpa.username=syncope
jpa.password=syncope
jpa.dialect=org.apache.openjpa.jdbc.sql.PostgresDictionary
quartz.jobstore=org.quartz.impl.jdbcjobstore.PostgreSQLDelegate
quartz.sql=tables_postgres.sql
logback.sql=postgresql.sql

This assumes that you have a PostgreSQL instance running on localhost, listening on its default port 5432 with a database

syncope

fully accessible by user

syncope

with password

syncope

MySQL

jpa.driverClassName=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
jpa.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/syncope?characterEncoding=UTF-8
jpa.username=syncope
jpa.password=syncope
jpa.dialect=org.apache.openjpa.jdbc.sql.MySQLDictionary
quartz.jobstore=org.quartz.impl.jdbcjobstore.StdJDBCDelegate
quartz.sql=tables_mysql_innodb.sql
logback.sql=mysql.sql

This assumes that you have a MySQL instance running on localhost, listening on its default port 3306 with a database

syncope

fully accessible by user

syncope

with password

syncope

Oracle

jpa.driverClassName=oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver
jpa.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:orcl
jpa.username=syncope
jpa.password=syncope
jpa.dialect=org.apache.openjpa.jdbc.sql.OracleDictionary
quartz.jobstore=org.quartz.impl.jdbcjobstore.oracle.OracleDelegate
quartz.sql=tables_oracle.sql
logback.sql=oracle.sql
database.schema=SYNCOPE

This assumes that you have an Oracle instance running on localhost, listening on its default port 1521 with a database

syncope

under tablespace

SYNCOPE

fully accessible by user

syncope

with password

syncope

You will also need to

  1. create directory
    core/src/main/resources/META-INF
  2. download Oracle mapping file, rename it to
    orm.xml
    and copy it under the directory created above

Microsoft SQL Server

jpa.driverClassName=com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
jpa.url=jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1344;database=syncope;selectMethod=cursor;sendStringParametersAsUnicode=false
jpa.username=syncope
jpa.password=syncope
jpa.dialect=org.apache.openjpa.jdbc.sql.SQLServerDictionary
quartz.jobstore=org.quartz.impl.jdbcjobstore.MSSQLDelegate
quartz.sql=tables_sqlserver.sql
logback.sql=sqlserver.sql

This assumes that you have an SQL Server instance running on localhost, listening on its default port 1344 with a database

syncope

fully accessible by user

syncope

with password

syncope

You will also need to

  1. create directory
    core/src/main/resources/META-INF
  2. download SQL Server mapping file, rename it to
    orm.xml
    and copy it under the directory created above

JEE container

Apache Tomcat 7

This assumes that you have got Apache Tomcat 7 installed in directory

$CATALINA_HOME

.

setenv.sh

Create

$CATALINA_HOME/bin/setenv.sh

with content (keep everything on a single line).

JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -server \
-Xms1536m -Xmx1536m -XX:NewSize=256m -XX:MaxNewSize=256m -XX:PermSize=256m \
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m -XX:+DisableExplicitGC"

context.xml

Uncomment <Manager pathname="" /> in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/context.xml.

Optionally, define a datasource for internal storage (following example is for MySQL): please check that the connection parameters are same as configured above.

<Resource name="jdbc/syncopeDataSource" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
          factory="org.apache.tomcat.jdbc.pool.DataSourceFactory" testWhileIdle="true"
          testOnBorrow="true" testOnReturn="true" validationQuery="SELECT 1" validationInterval="30000"
          maxActive="50" minIdle="2" maxWait="10000" initialSize="2" removeAbandonedTimeout="10"
          removeAbandoned="true" logAbandoned="true" suspectTimeout="10"
          timeBetweenEvictionRunsMillis="5000" minEvictableIdleTimeMillis="5000"
          jdbcInterceptors="org.apache.tomcat.jdbc.pool.interceptor.ConnectionState;org.apache.tomcat.jdbc.pool.interceptor.StatementFinalizer"
          username="syncope" password="syncope" driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
          url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/syncope?characterEncoding=UTF-8"/>

Be sure to put the JDBC driver JAR file under $CATALINA_HOME/lib for the Datasource you have defined above.

Other setup tasks

Use datasource

Syncope, when not finding a datasource called jdbc/syncopeDataSource, will connect to internal storage by instantiating a new connection upon request: this is of course strongly discouraged for any production environment.

When using a container-managed datasource, be sure to uncomment the <resource-ref ... /> element in core/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml.

Connecting console to core

Modify console/src/main/resources/configuration.properties so that provided properties reflects the scheme, hostname and port number where your JEE container is running and the URL context where Syncope core will be deployed.

For example, when running your JEE container on port 9080, you should have

scheme=http
host=localhost
port=9080
path=/syncope/rest/
version=${project.version}

Build and deploy

Assuming that you have created the two deployment directories defined above, just run

mvn clean package -Dbundles.directory=/opt/syncope/bundles -Dlog.directory=/opt/syncope/log

At this point you can deploy core/target/syncope.war and console/target/syncope-console.war to your JEE container.

Test your installation

  1. Point your favorite browser to administration console at http://localhost:9080/syncope-console/ (assuming that your JEE container is running on localhost, port 9080)
  2. Login as 'admin' / 'password'
