3 Configuration rollercoaster

...

Several scripts from dspace are using "/bin/bash". To make them happy:

...

Panel
<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75" enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100" connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true" URIEncoding="UTF-8" />

Panel
<!-- Define an AJP 1.3 Connector on port 8009 --> <Connector port="8009" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="8443" URIEncoding="UTF-8" />

Once again i found more reasonable not to copy (or symlink) webapps to tomcat appBase dir as suggests dspace official documentation. Instead i'm changin tomcat appBase to point to dspace webapps. Also put tomcat logs with other www/apache logs. Original lines are commented out and my lines marked bold.

Panel

<Host name="localhost" appBase="/data/dspace/webapps"
            unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true">
        
        <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve" directory="/var/log/apache2"
               prefix="tomcat_access." suffix=".log"
               pattern="%h %l %u %t "%r" %s %b" />

...

Some lines are omitted from output. Also configure "apache22/extra/httpd-mpm.conf" and "httpd-default.conf" to suit You. Also don't forget apache certificates.

Configure LDAP module. As i'm writing its not possible to configure multiple ldap servers in order to achieve failover (eg. ldap://ldapserver1 ldapserver2/?blah?blah).

...

And finally set proper permissons:

Panel
tcsh# chown -R www:www /data/dspace

Just in case verify /data/dspace/config/log4j.properties doesn't bug You. Remove unneeded "/" There may be 3 erratic lines like this one:

Panel
/var/log/apache2//cocoon.log

Also verify that /data/dspace/config/modules/authentication.cfg and authentication-ldap.cfg are correct.

...

Now install certificates required to use LDAPS. Make sure that You have JAVA_HOME set:

*tcsh# set JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/openjdk6* *
tcsh# echo $JAVA_HOME*
/usr/local/openjdk6 *
tcsh# keytool \ -import \ -file /tmp/myldap-clients.example.com.crt \ -alias myldap.example.com \ -keystore $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/cacerts*
Enter keystore password:  'changeit'   <\- by default without <- by default without '-es\!
/*/
Trust this certificate? \ [no\]:  *yes* Certificate was added to keystore *tcsh# keytool \-list \-keystore yes
Certificate was added to keystore
tcsh# keytool -list -keystore $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/cacerts* *
tcsh# rm \ -f /tmp/olp-wildmyldap-clients.example.com.crt*
