Get the packages
YUM repository
You can add this YUM repository to get recent packages:
vi /etc/yum.repos.d/lemonldap-ng.repo
[lemonldap-ng] name=LemonLDAP::NG packages baseurl=https://lemonldap-ng.org/redhat/stable/$releasever/noarch enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-OW2
stable
by 2.0
to avoid upgrade to next major version
You may also need some extras packages, available here:
[lemonldap-ng-extras] name=LemonLDAP::NG extra packages baseurl=https://lemonldap-ng.org/redhat/extras/$releasever enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-OW2
Run this to update packages cache:
yum update
Manual download
RPMs are available on the Download page.
Package GPG signature
The GPG key can be downloaded here: rpm-gpg-key-ow2
Install it to trust RPMs:
curl https://lemonldap-ng.org/_media/rpm-gpg-key-ow2 > /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-OW2
Install packages
With YUM
If the packages are stored in a yum repository:
yum install lemonldap-ng
You can also use yum on local RPMs file:
yum localinstall lemonldap-ng-* perl-Lemonldap-NG-*
With RPM
Before installing the packages, install all dependencies.
You have then to install all the downloaded packages:
rpm -Uvh lemonldap-ng-* perl-Lemonldap-NG-*
lemonldap-ng-portal
, lemonldap-ng-handler
or lemonldap-ng-manager
.
Install the package lemonldap-ng-conf
on all server which contains one of those packages.
First configuration steps
Change default DNS domain
By default, DNS domain is example.com
. You can change it quick with a sed command. For example, we change it to ow2.org
:
sed -i 's/example\.com/ow2.org/g' /etc/lemonldap-ng/* /var/lib/lemonldap-ng/conf/lmConf-1.json /etc/nginx/conf.d/* /etc/httpd/conf.d/*
Upgrade
If you upgraded LL::NG, check all upgrade notes.
DNS
Configure your DNS server to resolve names with your server IP:
- auth.<your domain>: main portal, must be public
- manager.<your domain>: manager, only for adminsitrators
- test1.<your domain>, test2.<your domain>: sample applications
Follow the next steps
File location
- Configuration is in /etc/lemonldap-ng
- LemonLDAP::NG configuration (edited by the Manager) is in /var/lib/lemonldap-ng/conf/
- All Perl modules are in the VENDOR perl directory
- All Perl scripts/pages are in /var/lib/lemonldap-ng/
- All static content (examples, CSS, images, etc.) is in /usr/share/lemonldap-ng/
Build your packages
If you need it, you can rebuild RPMs:
- Install rpm-build package
- Install all build dependencies (see BuildRequires in lemonldap-ng.spec)
