In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing OSIAM on Linux Mint Latest. OSIAM is an open-source identity and access management software that provides secure and reliable authentication and authorization services.
Before we begin, ensure that you have the following prerequisites installed on your Linux Mint system:
The first step is to clone the OSIAM repository to your local system using the following command in your terminal:
git clone https://github.com/osiam/osiam.git
Navigate to the cloned OSIAM directory by running the following command:
cd osiam
Now, build OSIAM using the following command:
./mvnw clean package
This command will download all the required dependencies and build the OSIAM application.
Once the build process has completed successfully, you can start OSIAM by running the following command:
java -jar ./server/target/osiam-server-3.1.0-SNAPSHOT.war
This command will start the OSIAM server on port 8080. You can access the server by opening your web browser and navigating to http://localhost:8080/osiam-server/.
The last step is to configure OSIAM by modifying the osiam-server.properties file. This file is located in the ${user.home}/.osiam/ directory.
Edit the osiam-server.properties file and change the following settings:
osiam.security.create_admin_user - Set this value to true to create an admin user during startup.osiam.storage.jdbc.database_url - Set the database URL to the desired database.osiam.storage.jdbc.database_username - Set the username for the database.osiam.storage.jdbc.database_password - Set the password for the database.Save the changes to the osiam-server.properties file.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured OSIAM on your Linux Mint system. You can now use OSIAM to provide secure authentication and authorization services for your applications.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
