Steps to Setup On-Premise IDP

The miniOrange identity provider (IdP) is a service that stores and verifies user identity. IdPs are typically cloud-hosted services, and they often work with single sign-on (SSO) providers to authenticate users. The purpose of this guide is to get you up and run as quickly as possible so that you can play with and test-drive various features that miniOrange has. It is a standalone application with default database and packaged tomcat and does not cover any complex deployment options. We support both windows and linux os for installation.

This short tutorial walks you through starting up the server in standalone mode, setting up the initial admin account, and logging into the miniOrange admin dashboard.

1. Setup External Database

Set up miniOrange with the external database supported in the list below. This is recommended for production systems. miniOrange supports a number of databases and if you don’t have an established database of choice within your organization and do not have a strong preference for any of our supported databases, we recommend PostgreSQL, which is free and thoroughly tested against.
You can refer to the below document to see supported versions of MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MS SQL: click here.

Note:

If you already have a database setup which is not in the list below, you can contact us to add support for that database.

Create an empty database in your database server: PostgreSQL/MySQL/MS SQL. Once done, start filling the form shown below:
If you choose MSSQL and want to enable MVCC behavior in MSSQL, run the following query: ALTER DATABASE YourDatabaseName SET ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION ON;

Note:

You can refer this link to know more about how miniOrange can enhance performance and data consistency by enabling Snapshot Isolation.
Enter Database Host: localhost or IP address.

Run miniOrange IDP server over SSL (Optional)

Note:

Before moving forward, you need to make two changes related to same site cookie. Starting with version 80, Google Chrome will change the default value for the SameSite cookie parameter to Lax. Therefore, changes are required and SameSite parameter has to be set to NONE.

To do changes, follow the path: mo-idp-server-<version>/moas/WEB-INF/classes. In this folder search for the file spring-context-onpremise and open it in editor. Search for bean id="customCookie". you will see a bean with name samesite and secure properties. Update value of samesite from LAX to NONE and of secure to true.

For Self Signed Certificate
For Certificates from Trusted CAs

1. Generate a Keystore

Open a command prompt or terminal. And go to <Path to JAVA_HOME/bin> path and enter the command given below.
keytool -genkey -alias onpremssoidp -keyalg RSA -keystore onpremssoidp.jks
If you get a permission error (mostly on a windows machine) in this step.Then change the location in command prompt or terminal to Desktop or any other location of your choice.
Enter your convenient password and remember it.(If the password you entered didn’t work then keep the password as “changeit” ).

2. Generate SSL Certificate

After Pressing the Return key it will prompt for a password for <onpremssoidp>. Hit Return to continue.
(Note: firstname and lastname needs to be the server DNS name/hostname of the server)

SSL self-signed certificate is generated at the given location.

3. Configure Tomcat with above-generated Keystore

1. Open Tomcat Configuration:

Navigate to the conf directory within the miniOrange installation folder.
Open the server.xml file in a text editor.

2. Edit server.xml:

Locate the line <Service name=”Catalina”>.

Immediately after this line, insert the following snippet:

<Connector port="443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true" maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true" clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" keystoreFile="<JKS Keystore Path>" ciphers="ALL" keystorePass="<Password while keystore generation>"/>

Replace <JKS Keystore Path> with your keystore file path and <Password while keystore generation> with your keystore password.

Note: Make sure the .jks file has appropriate permissions/run command prompt as Administrator.

Using a certificate from Trusted CAs like LetsEncrypt, GoDaddy, Comodo SSL.

a) LetsEncrypt

The following steps assume that you have a valid certificate generated through Certbot. In case you do not have the certificates, you can use the Certbot commands below to generate the certificate for your domain
certbot certonly --standalone -d.example.com
Once the certificate is generated, the following folder structure will be obtained.
#:/etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com# ls cert.pem chain.pem fullchain.pem privkey.pem README
Copy over the cert.pem, chain.pem, fullchain.pem and privkey.pem in the conf directory of the IdP.

Edit the conf/server.xml and add the following connector element.

 <Connector port="443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
                    maxThreads="150" SSLEnabled="true">
                    <SSLHostConfig>
                    <Certificate certificateFile="conf/cert.pem"
                    certificateKeyFile="conf/privkey.pem"
                    certificateChainFile="conf/chain.pem" />
                    <SSLHostConfig>
                    <Connector>

Restart the IdP. The IdP should now use the valid certificate from LetsEncrypt.

b) Go Daddy

The steps below assume that you have downloaded the valid SSL certificates from GoDaddy. The certificates need to be imported in a Java Keystore (JKS). In order to create a JKS, the keytool utility can be used.
keytool -genkey -alias onpremssoidp -keyalg RSA -keystore onpremssoidp.jks
The original certificates need to be removed from the keystore. That can be done using the below command.
keytool -delete -alias onpremssoidp -keystore onpremssoidp.jks
OpenSSL commands can be used to import the certificates downloaded from GoDaddy into the Java Keystore.
openssl pkcs12 -export -in <GoDaddyCertificate>.crt -inkey <PrivateKey>.key -out <PublicPrivateKeyPair>.p12 -name tomcat -CAfile gd_bundle-g2-g1.crt -caname root

The keystore can now be used to configure the connector in conf/server.xml.

<Connector port="443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true" maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
                    clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" keystoreFile="<JKS Keystore Path>" ciphers="ALL"
                    keystorePass="<Password while keystore generation>"/>

Restart the IdP. The IdP should now use the valid certificate from GoDaddy.

c) Comodo SSL

Creating a New Keystore

Navigate to the directory where you plan to locate the new keystore.
Enter the following command:
keytool -genkey -alias server -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -keystore your_site_name.jks
When prompted, create a password for your new Keystore.
Enter the required information (Note: Do not type your own name into the name field, type your FQDN).
When finished, verify your information by typing “Y” or “Yes”.
Finally, enter the password you just created in step three.

Creating a CSR on Tomcat Servers

Run the following command:
keytool -certreq -alias server -file csr.txt -keystore your_site_name.jks
Once prompted, enter the password you created in step three of the Keystore instructions
Use the information you supplied when creating the keystore. The CSR will be generated and saved in the chosen directory as “CSR.txt.”
We recommend saving and backing up the keystore file once you’ve complete generating the CSR. Once you’ve got the CSR complete, choose the SSL certificate you’d like to install on your Tomcat server and then purchase it, copy/pasting the CSR (open the .txt file) into the relevant field (usually the one labelled CSR).
Once the purchase and validation are complete, the CA will email you a bundle that includes your SSL certificate and an intermediate certificate that needs to be installed with it.

How to Install an SSL Certificate on Your Tomcat Server

Save your certificate(s) to the Keystore directory you created.
Use the following command to import the keystore:
keytool -import -alias server -file your_site_name.p7b -keystore your_site_name.jks
You should see a confirmation message that says: “Certificate reply was installed in keystore.”
Type “Y” or “Yes” to trust the certificate.
Now, finally, we just need to configure the Tomcat server to serve the website via HTTPS.

Configuring Your SSL/TLS Connector

Using a text editor, open your Tomcat server.xml file.
Locate the connector you want to secure with your new keystore.

Configure the connector to use port 443 (HTTPS), your configuration file should look something like this:

<Connector port="443" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" maxThreads="100"
                    minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
                    enableLookups="false" disableUploadTimeout="true"
                    acceptCount="100" scheme="https" secure="true"
                    SSLEnabled="true" clientAuth="false"
                    sslProtocol="TLS" keyAlias="server"
                    keystoreFile="/home/user_name/your_site_name.jks"
                    keystorePass="your_keystore_password" />

Save the changes to your server.xml file.
Restart your Tomcat server.

If the above methods don't work follow the link given below
Click here to follow the steps if you have any other CA certificates.
