Environment
Release : 14.4.x
Component : Identity Portal
Resolution
This document is an example of how the Symantec (Formerly CA) Identity Portal (IP) 14.4 can be deployed on Linux.
In this example the deployment is as follows:
OS - Centos 7
JDK - OpenJDK 1.8.0_322
Application Server - Wildfly 15.0.1
Database - MS SQL 2012
Please refer to the Platform Support Matrix (PSM) in the product documentation for more information on supported deployments.
Implementation Steps.
1. Pre-Requisites
Please ensure that you have
(i) IP requires a database connection to build the application repository. Install a new/clean database and
(ii) Ensure that the admin user has appropriate access privileges and
(iii) Ensure that there are now firewalls\ port filtering etc. blocking communication between the Linux host and DB Server.
(iv) For MS SQL use SQL Authentication.
(v) Ensure that OpenJDK (AdoptOpenJDK) 1.8.161 or higher is installed.
2. As "root" use the "yum install" command to deploy the following packages
rpm.x86_64
rpm-build.x86_64
rpm-build-libs.i686
rpm-build-libs.x86_64
rpm-devel.i686
rpm-devel.x86_64
rpm-libs.i686
rpm-libs.x86_64
rpm-python.x86_64
glibc.i686
libXext.i686
libXtst.i686
ncurses-devel.i686
ksh
3. Download and deploy Wildfly 15.0.1.Final
