Steps to Setup On-Premise IDP


The miniOrange identity provider (IdP) is a service that stores and verifies user identity. IdPs are typically cloud-hosted services, and they often work with single sign-on (SSO) providers to authenticate users.The purpose of this guide is to get you up and run as quickly as possible so that you can play with and test-drive various features that miniOrange has. It is a standalone application with default database and packaged tomcat and does not cover any complex deployment options. We support both windows and linux os for installation.

This short tutorial walks you through starting up the server in standalone mode, setting up the initial admin account, and logging into the miniOrange admin dashboard.

Prerequisites:

  • Installation of JDK 1.8 requires login through the oracle account. If you don't have the oracle account, Click here to directly install JDK 1.8.
  • If JAVA is already installed and Environment variables are set correctly on your system, then you don't need to follow this step, you can directly go to Install On-Premise Server.
  • Note:

    Once the Java installation is complete, check that the JAVA_HOME environment variable has been set correctly.Open a command prompt and type echo %JAVA_HOME% and hit Enter. If you see a path to your Java installation directory, the JAVA_Home environment variable has been set correctly. If nothing is displayed, or only %JAVA_HOME% is returned, you'll need to set the JAVA_HOME environment variable manually.



  • Set Java environment variables i.e. JAVA_HOME and JRE_HOME and path variables. Lets say JDK software is installed on your computer, for example, at C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_381 then JAVA_HOME and JRE_HOME paths can be as mentioned -
    • JAVA_HOME - C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_381
    • JRE_HOME - C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_381\jre
  • To Save these variables, right click My Computer and select Properties > Advanced System Settings.Click the Environment Variables button.Under System Variables, click New.In the Variable Name field, enter:
    • JAVA_HOME - C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_381
    • JRE_HOME - C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_381\jre
  • Also update the path variable set with path : path_to_JAVA_HOME/bin. You can Read more about java specfic environment variables.
  • You can verify whether above environment variables are set correctly. Execute below commands to verify environment variables -
  • echo %JAVA_HOME% echo %JRE_HOME%

    Start miniOrange On-Premise IDP Server:

  • To start the miniOrange server, go to the mo-idp-server-<version>/bin directory of the server distribution (i.e. folder with name similar to mo-idp-server-1.0.3 (version may vary)). Execute the startup file based on your environment.
  • > ...\bin\startup.bat

Run Tomcat as a Service for miniOrange IDP

  • Make sure your environment variable like JAVA_HOME and CATALINA_HOME are set.
  • Navigate the to <Tomcat Root Directory>/bin.
  • Open a CMD in the current directory and run mo-service.bat
  • You will be prompted with an administrator grant screen. Click Yes.
  • Enter the required information and hit Enter.
  • Tomcat as a Service

  • The miniOrange Service should be installed successfully.
  • Open linux terminal using your root profile.
  • Locate folder which contains the downloaded on-premise mo-idp-installer.sh script file (mo-idp-installer.sh).
  • On-Premise IDP Server Linux Install Locate Server

  • Run the following command in terminal: sh mo-idp-installer.sh
  • You will be prompted to install JAVA. Type "n" if JAVA 8 is already installed, if not type "y". As shown below:
  • On-Premise IDP Server Linux Install Java

  • After pressing "y", JAVA 8 will be installed.
  • Once the Java installation is completed, miniOrange Onpremise zip file will be downloaded & extracted from the source
  • On-Premise IDP Server Install

  • In case if JAVA 8 is already present, the script will directly download miniOrange onpremise zip and extract it in the same folder.
  • On-Premise IDP Server Linux Extract Folder

  • In case, some other version of JAVA is already installed, you will receive the message "Java 8 not found". Let the script install JAVA 8 by pressing "y" when requested.
  • Once the extraction is completed, IDP server will automatically start up and can be accessed through http://localhost:8080/initialize
  • After extraction of the file you can see the folder "mo-idp-server-X as shown below.
  • On-Premise IDP Server

  • As Tomcat has already started up, you can check the logs in catalina.out file */mo-idp-server-X/logs/catalina.out as shown below:
  • On-Premise IDP Server Initialize

  • Go to http://localhost:8080/initialize and setup your database.
  • You can download OpenJDK8 package using apt install openjdk-8-jdk for Debian, Ubuntu, etc. OR yum install java-1.8.0-openjdk for Fedora, Oracle Linux, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, etc.
  • If JAVA is already installed and Environment variables are set correcty on your system, then you don't need to follow this step, you can directly go to Install On-Premise Server.
  • Note:

    Once the Java installation is complete, check that the JAVA_HOME environment variable has been set correctly. Open a terminal and type echo $JAVA_HOME and hit Enter. If you see a path to your Java installation directory, the JAVA_Home environment variable has been set correctly. If nothing is displayed you'll need to set the JAVA_HOME environment variable manually.


  • Linux users can use below commands to set JAVA_HOME and JRE_HOME variables using below commands -
    • export JAVA_HOME=/path/to/jdk export JRE_HOME=/path/to/jre
  • You can verify whether above environment variables are set correctly. Execute below commands to verify environment variables -
  • echo $JAVA_HOME echo $JRE_HOME
  • To start the miniOrange server, go to the mo-idp-server-<version>/bin directory of the server distribution (i.e. folder with name similar to mo-idp-server-1.0.3 (version may vary)). Execute the startup file based on your environment.
  • Linux/Unix: Execute chmod +x startup.sh to give executable permission to this file. Set relevant permission of mo-idp-server folder to allow the creation of new folder like temp or logs folder – chmod 755.
    $ .../bin/startup.sh

Run Tomcat as a Service for miniOrange IDP

  • Install Tomcat as Linux Service from Apache project site.
  • Unpack the tomcat folder in opt directory. For this, you will need a terminal and root access.
  • Create Tomcat user with restricted permissions:
  • groupadd tomcat
    useradd -s /sbin/nologin -g tomcat -d /opt/mo-idp-server tomcat
    passwd tomcat
  • Set the tomcat user as the owner of the $CATALINA_HOME folder.
  • chown -R tomcat.tomcat /opt/mo-idp-server
  • Configure Tomcat to run as a Service
  • Using init.d
  • Navigate to /etc/init.d , create a directory named as tomcat and paste the below code.
    #!/bin/bash ## Change the path of mo-idp folder below ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: tomcat # Required-Start: $network $remote_fs $syslog # Required-Stop: $network $remote_fs $syslog # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: Start Tomcat at boot time # Description: Start Tomcat at boot time ### END INIT INFO export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/jre export CATALINA_HOME=/opt/<PATH OF MiniOrange IDP Folder> export JAVA_OPTS="-Xms250m -Xmx1024m" RETVAL=$? case $1 in start) if [ -f $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh ]; then echo $"Starting Tomcat" su -p -s /bin/sh tomcat $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh fi ;; stop) if [ -f $CATALINA_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh ]; then echo $"Stopping Tomcat" su -p -s /bin/sh tomcat $CATALINA_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh fi ;; *) echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop}" exit 1 ;; esac exit $RETVAL
  • The script shown above would have a LSB type header to define dependencies and runlevels.
  • To make the script executable:
    chmod ug+x /etc/init.d/tomcat
  • Configure the system to run the script at boot:
    sudo update-rc.d tomcat defaults # Debian, Ubuntu
    sudo chkconfig --add tomcat # Red Hat & co.
  • If you want to remove the service:
    sudo update-rc.d -f tomcat remove # Debian, Ubuntu
  • To start/stop the script manually:
    service tomcat [start | stop]
  • Or the old-fashioned way (Ubuntu):
    /etc/init.d/tomcat [start | stop]


1. Setup External Database

  • Set up miniOrange with the external database supported in the list below. This is recommended for production systems. miniOrange supports a number of databases and if you don’t have an established database of choice within your organization and do not have a strong preference for any of our supported databases, we recommend PostgreSQL, which is free and thoroughly tested against.
  • You can refer to the below document to see supported versions of MySQL, PostgreSQL, MS SQL, and Oracle DB: click here.
  • Note:

    If you already have a database setup which is not in the list below, you can contact us to add support for that database.


  • Create an empty database in your database server: PostgreSQL/MySQL/MS SQL/Oracle DB. Once done, start filling the form shown below:
  • If you choose MSSQL and want to enable MVCC behavior in MSSQL, run the following query: ALTER DATABASE YourDatabaseName
    SET ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION ON;

    • newhosts linux

    • Save the changes.


Run miniOrange IDP server over SSL (Optional)

Note:


Before moving forward, you need to make two changes related to same site cookie. Starting with version 80, Google Chrome will change the default value for the SameSite cookie parameter to Lax. Therefore, changes are required and SameSite parameter has to be set to NONE.

To do changes, follow the path: mo-idp-server-<version>/moas/WEB-INF/classes. In this folder search for the file spring-context-onpremise and open it in editor. Search for bean id="customCookie". you will see a bean with name,samesite and secure properties. Update value of samesite from LAX to NONE and of secure to true.





    1. Generate a Keystore
    • Open a command prompt or terminal. And go to <Path to JAVA_HOME/bin> path and enter the command given below.
      keytool -genkey -alias onpremssoidp -keyalg RSA -keystore onpremssoidp.jks
    • If you get a permission error (mostly on a windows machine) in this step.Then change the location in command prompt or terminal to Desktop or any other location of your choice.
    • Enter your convenient password and remember it.(If the password you entered didn’t work then keep the password as “changeit” ).
    2. Generate SSL Certificate
    • After Pressing the Return key it will prompt for a password for <onpremssoidp>. Hit Return to continue.
      (Note: firstname and lastname needs to be the server DNS name/hostname of the server)
    • generate ssl certificate

    • SSL self-signed certificate is generated at the given location.
    3. Configure Tomcat with above-generated Keystore

      1. Open Tomcat Configuration:

      • Navigate to the conf directory within the miniOrange installation folder.
      • Open the server.xml file in a text editor.

      2. Edit server.xml:

      • Locate the line <Service name=”Catalina”>.
      • Immediately after this line, insert the following snippet:
        <Connector port="443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true" maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true" clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" keystoreFile="<JKS Keystore Path>" ciphers="ALL" keystorePass="<Password while keystore generation>"/>
      • Replace <JKS Keystore Path> with your keystore file path and <Password while keystore generation> with your keystore password.

        Note: Make sure the .jks file has appropriate permissions/run command prompt as Administrator.

Using a certificate from Trusted CAs like LetsEncrypt, GoDaddy, Comodo SSL.

  • The following steps assume that you have a valid certificate generated through Certbot. In case you do not have the certificates, you can use the Certbot commands below to generate the certificate for your domain
    certbot certonly --standalone -d.example.com
  • Once the certificate is generated, the following folder structure will be obtained.
    #:/etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com# ls
    cert.pem chain.pem fullchain.pem privkey.pem README
  • Copy over the cert.pem, chain.pem, fullchain.pem and privkey.pem in the conf directory of the IdP.
  • Edit the conf/server.xml and add the following connector element.
     <Connector port="443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
                        maxThreads="150" SSLEnabled="true">
                        <SSLHostConfig>
                        <Certificate certificateFile="conf/cert.pem"
                        certificateKeyFile="conf/privkey.pem"
                        certificateChainFile="conf/chain.pem" />
                        <SSLHostConfig>
                        <Connector>
                        
  • Restart the IdP. The IdP should now use the valid certificate from LetsEncrypt.
  • The steps below assume that you have downloaded the valid SSL certificates from GoDaddy. The certificates need to be imported in a Java Keystore (JKS). In order to create a JKS, the keytool utility can be used.
    keytool -genkey -alias onpremssoidp -keyalg RSA -keystore onpremssoidp.jks
  • The original certificates need to be removed from the keystore. That can be done using the below command.
    keytool -delete -alias onpremssoidp -keystore onpremssoidp.jks
  • OpenSSL commands can be used to import the certificates downloaded from GoDaddy into the Java Keystore.
    openssl pkcs12 -export -in <GoDaddyCertificate>.crt -inkey <PrivateKey>.key
    -out <PublicPrivateKeyPair>.p12 -name tomcat -CAfile gd_bundle-g2-g1.crt -caname root
  • The keystore can now be used to configure the connector in conf/server.xml.
    <Connector port="443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true" maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
                        clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" keystoreFile="<JKS Keystore Path>" ciphers="ALL"
                        keystorePass="<Password while keystore generation>"/>
                        
  • Restart the IdP. The IdP should now use the valid certificate from GoDaddy.

    Creating a New Keystore

  • Navigate to the directory where you plan to locate the new keystore.
  • Enter the following command:
    keytool -genkey -alias server -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -keystore your_site_name.jks
  • When prompted, create a password for your new Keystore.
  • Enter the required information (Note: Do not type your own name into the name field, type your FQDN).
  • When finished, verify your information by typing “Y” or “Yes”.
  • Finally, enter the password you just created in step three.

  • Creating a CSR on Tomcat Servers

  • Run the following command:
    keytool -certreq -alias server -file csr.txt -keystore your_site_name.jks
  • Once prompted, enter the password you created in step three of the Keystore instructions
  • Use the information you supplied when creating the keystore. The CSR will be generated and saved in the chosen directory as “CSR.txt.”
  • We recommend saving and backing up the keystore file once you’ve complete generating the CSR. Once you’ve got the CSR complete, choose the SSL certificate you’d like to install on your Tomcat server and then purchase it, copy/pasting the CSR (open the .txt file) into the relevant field (usually the one labelled CSR).
  • Once the purchase and validation are complete, the CA will email you a bundle that includes your SSL certificate and an intermediate certificate that needs to be installed with it.

  • How to Install an SSL Certificate on Your Tomcat Server

  • Save your certificate(s) to the Keystore directory you created.
  • Use the following command to import the keystore:
    keytool -import -alias server -file your_site_name.p7b -keystore your_site_name.jks
  • You should see a confirmation message that says: “Certificate reply was installed in keystore.”
  • Type “Y” or “Yes” to trust the certificate.
  • Now, finally, we just need to configure the Tomcat server to serve the website via HTTPS.

  • Configuring Your SSL/TLS Connector

  • Using a text editor, open your Tomcat server.xml file.
  • Locate the connector you want to secure with your new keystore.
  • Configure the connector to use port 443 (HTTPS), your configuration file should look something like this:
    <Connector port="443" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" maxThreads="100"
                        minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
                        enableLookups="false" disableUploadTimeout="true"
                        acceptCount="100" scheme="https" secure="true"
