Installing Identity Install Pack for WebLogic

Use the following information and procedures to install Identity Install Pack for use with the BEA WebLogic application server.


Before You Begin

During installation, you will need to know:


Installation Procedures

Follow these installation and configuration steps, located in this chapter and following chapters:

Step 1: Configure the WebLogic Software

Install WebLogic and select the domain that will be referenced when installing the software.

Step 2: Install the Identity Install Pack Software

  1. You may install the software using one of two methods:
    • Using the installer GUI
    • Run the install.bat (for Windows) or install (for UNIX) command to launch the installation process.

      The installer displays the Welcome panel.

    • Using the nodisplay option
    • On UNIX systems change directory to the Identity Install Pack software location. Enter the following command to activate the installer in nodisplay mode:

      install -nodisplay

      The installer displays the Welcome text. The installer then presents a list of questions to gather installation information in the same order as the GUI installer in these procedures.


      Note

      If no display is present, the installer defaults to the nodisplay option.

  2. Click Next. The installer displays the Install or Upgrade? panel.
  3. Leave the New Installation option selected, and then click Next.
  4. The installer displays the Select Installation Directory panel.

  5. Replace the displayed directory location with the location where you want to install Identity Install Pack. This could be a staging location or a specific folder. Enter the location (or click Browse to locate it), and then click Next.

  6. Notes

    • If the directory you enter does not exist, The installer prompts for confirmation, and then creates the directory.
    • The WebLogic Web application home directory is:
      • Versions 7.1, 8.1 — ServerHome/user_projects/DomainName/applications
      • Version 8.1 SP1 — ServerHome/user_projects/domains/DomainName/applications
  7. Click Next to begin installation.
  8. After installing the files, The installer displays the Launch Setup panel.


    WARNING  Before you continue, if you plan to use an index database, you may need to copy one or more files to the idm\WEB-INF\lib directory. For example, you may need to place into idm/WEB-INF/lib a JAR file containing a JDBC driver (for a DriverManager connection) or a JAR file containing a JNDI InitialContextFactory (for a DataSource connection). To determine the steps you may need to perform before you go on, see Appendix A, Index Database Reference. When finished, click Launch Setup to launch the Setup Wizard and continue with setup steps.

    If you click Launch Setup before copying your index database files, setup will not proceed correctly. If this happens, quit the installation program, and then use the lh setup command to restart the setup portion of the installation process.

  9. Click Next on the Setup Wizard panel.
  10. The installer displays the Locate the Repository panel.

  11. Select an index database:
    • Oracle (JDBC Driver)
    • Oracle (Data Source)
    • MySQL (JDBC Driver)
    • MySQL (Data Source)
    • DB2 (JDBC Driver)
    • DB2 (Data Source)
    • SQL Server (JDBC Driver)
    • SQL Server (Data Source)
    • LocalFiles
    • Depending on your selection, setup prompts for additional setup information.


      Note  See Appendix A, Index Database Reference, for selections and setup instructions.

  12. Click Next.
  13. The installer displays the License Key panel with a valid Identity Manager Free use license and License Key as default.

  14. If appropriate, click Import from File to import your license key data from an XML file or click Copy and Paste to paste in your license key data.

  15. Note  If you have an Identity Manager license key, enter it to enable support services.

    Depending on your license key data you will see the Identity Auditor, and/or Service Provider Edition boxes checked and a license valid message displayed.


    Note  If you re-license the product you must import update.xml again. This will insure that you get all the objects for the products which are licensed to you.

  16. Click Next.
  17. The Continue Identity Manager Demo Setup? panel appears.
  18. If this is a non-demo installation click No, I will configure Identity Manager myself. Go to Step 21.
  19. If appropriate, click Yes, I would like to continue setting up a demonstration environment.
  20. This allows you to quickly configure users and enter environment and server information.

  21. Enter the following personal information:
      • First name
      • Last name
      • Email address

      • Note  This personal information is used to create the Approver user (with configurator privileges.)

      • Approver name
      • Approver password
  23. Click Next.
  24. Select the Server Type from the list.
  25. Select None if your environment has no server to manager. If there is a server you wish to manage, select the appropriate server type. You will be prompted for further server information as appropriate.

  28. Click Next.
  29. The installer displays the Import Save Configuration panel.
  30. Click Execute to perform all the listed functions. If desired click Hide Details.
  31. When all functions complete, click Done in the setup panel.
  32. If you are running JDK 1.4.1 or higher, remove the Cryptix jars (cryptix-jce-api.jar and cryptix-jce-provider.jar) from the idm\WEB-INF\lib directory.

  33. Note  The Cryptix jars are no longer included and no longer supported. You need to remove them if you haven't already. If you've customized your Waveset.properties file please make sure that security.jce.workaround property is set to false or removed. An exception will be thrown if this property is set to true because the intention of this property will not be fulfilled.

Getting More Information

After successfully completing The installer installation, continue setup by configuring the WebLogic server.

Step 3: Configure the WebLogic Server

Use one of the following procedures to configure WebLogic:

  4. The console displays the Web Applications panel.

  5. Click Configure a new Web Application.
  6. Using the links, locate the idm folder and select it.
  7. Select the target server. To do this, select the server from the Available Servers list and move it to the Target Servers area, and then click Configure and Deploy.
  8. Click Deploy to deploy Identity Manager Pack.

Configure WebLogic 8.1

Use these steps to configure the server:

  1. Start the WebLogic server:
  2. Start the BEA WebLogic Administration Console.
  3. In the left panel, expand documents, and then choose Web Application Modules.
