Comparing an OpenSSO Enterprise WAR File to Its Internal Manifest

Use this procedure to determine if an OpenSSO Enterprise WAR file has been customized or modified since it was downloaded.

The ssopatch utility generates a new internal manifest file and then compares this internal manifest against the manifest stored inside the original OpenSSO Enterprise WAR file in the META-INF directory.

To Compare an OpenSSO Enterprise WAR File to Its Internal Manifest

1. Run ssopatch to compare the OpenSSO Enterprise WAR file to its internal manifest. For example:

   ./ssopatch -o /zip-root/opensso/deployable-war/opensso.war Generating Manifest for: /zip-root/opensso/deployable-war/opensso.war Comparing manifest of Internal (Enterprise 8.0 Build 6(200810311055)) against /zip-root/opensso/deployable-war/opensso.war (generated-200905050855) File not in original war (images/login-origimage.jpg) File updated in new war (images/login-backimage.jpg) File updated in new war (WEB-INF/classes/amConfigurator.properties) Differences: 3

This example shows these changes to the original WAR file:

• images/login-origimage.jpg is in opensso.war but was not found in the original manifest.

• images/login-backimage.jpg has been customized in opensso.war from the original manifest.

• WEB-INF/classes/amConfigurator.properties file has been customized in opensso.war from the original manifest.
