Shell script to Install Tomcat on server

RSA to CPASS migration on windows platform

For IIS7

Prerequisites

• Put agent installer here.  E:\csapps\PolicyAgentIIS7
• Site should not be a virual directory(i.e. is being in default website folder), if it is so , you will have first make it as website and it should have dedicated application pool.
• To check if it’s a dedicated or not . Goto “application pool” and check number of application associated with that app pool
• Also check in the bindings of the application if the URL is “organisation1.com”, if not create new host name with organisation1.com domain name and get that configured with the help of IP DOMAIN team and after that manually enter in bindings too.
• Close IIS manager

Configuring CPASS

1. Create a friendly text file and copy password in the bin folder of the installer at E:\csapps\PolicyAgentIIS7. Alternatively, for IIS6 the path will be E:\csapps\sun\webaggents
2. Cmd>installer bin>cscript IIS7CreateConfig.vbs ABCconf.txt

Certificate renewal on Unix box

What are web site certificates?

If an organization wants to have a secure web site that uses encryption, it needs to obtain a site, or host, certificate. There are two elements that indicate that a site uses encryption:

•  a closed padlock, which, depending on your browser, may be located in the status bar at the bottom of your browser window or at the top of the browser window between the address and search fields
• a URL that begins with "https:" rather than "http:"

By making sure a web site encrypts your information and has a valid certificate, you can help protect yourself against attackers who create malicious sites to gather your information.

RAISING A CERTIFICATE REQUEST

1. Run the command for extracting server key (server.key)

/home/u2/neha>openssl genrsa -out server.key 2048

Generating RSA private key, 2048 bit long modulus

.........+++

..................+++

e is 65537 (0x10001)

   this will give a file named 'server.key'

2. generate .csr file

home/u2/neha>openssl req -new -key server.key -out server.csr

You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated

into your certificate request.

What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.

There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank

For some fields there will be a default value,

If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.

-----

Country Name (2 letter code) [AU]:

State or Province Name (full name) [Some-State]:

Locality Name (eg, city) []:

Organization Name (eg, company) [Internet Widgits Pty Ltd]:

Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []:Global

Common Name (eg, YOUR name) []:

Email Address []:

Please enter the following 'extra' attributes

to be sent with your certificate request

6. Convert the txt files in CRT mode 

7. Copy the txt from BEGIN CERTIFICATE up to END CERTIFICATE. Including "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----, -----END CERTIFICATE-----"

8. Save it on notepad with file name "server.crt” and "geotrust_intermediat.crt" on desktop. Format of txt will be changed to crt like server.crt and geotrust_intermediate.crt

10. Now, again do FTP and put the files server.crt and Geotrust_Intermediate.crt to home folder of UNIX server on which certs needs to be deployed.    Rename it with instance name – instance1.crt and geotrust_intermediate.crt. FTP to UNIX server must be BIN mode, not ASCII mode.

or 

Request UNIX team to put the files, server. Key, crt file and geotrust intermediate file.

In specified path 

11. change the ownership and group of files .

Note: The ownership and group will be same as it mentioned with old files in specified logs.

12. Exit from the ID of instance and then Bounce the apache with your own ID.

13. Check validity of certificate

 /export/apps/apache/OpenSSL/0.9.8.g/bin/openssl x509 -noout -in ./app.crt -startdate -enddate
notBefore=Apr 28 14:37:30 2015 GMT
notAfter=May  1 11:49:37 2016 GMT

How do you check a certificate of site?

Following are the points to see the security certificate of the website

1.       Open the site

2.       Right on the site

3.       Choose the property >Certificate

4.       Certificate contain start and expire date

Windows Server Migration Activities

1. Stop the Application specific webserver/appserver services like IIS service, JBoss, Tomcat or any  other software that is installed on the server explicitly. Open the service manager by 

A. Go to start

B. Go to run

C. Type 'services.msc' . Press 'ok'.

D. Choose the services to be stopped and click on 'stop'.

2. Set the services to 'Manual' (Not on 'Automatic'). This will ensure that when server is started again these services will not come up on itself.

3. In case there is any scheduled jobs on the server, make sure that all of them are suspended temporarily.

4. Database server mapping changes-
For SQL
Admin tools> OJDBC data source administrator > System DSN> see the services which have 'SQL service' > Select it> configure> update the server name of DB> Next> update Passward> Next

For Oracle
Make changes in TSNnames.ora file. Dont make changes manual. Use 'Oracle Net manager'.

Start>all Programs> Oracle OraClient10g_home2>configuration and Migration Tools> Net Manager

Add the New Host name (new database name) or new SID that is to be used for data connection after Migration.

5. Check in each Website in IIS, if it is mapped to correctIP.

Website>app>properties>IP Address

6. After Migration some changes will be done in RSA end as well(In case you are using RSA as authentication for any of the application on the server )

Control panel>RSA Authentication Agent> Advanced>clear note secret

change IP

main tab> test the RSA> 'Success' come up in the dialog box.

Type of Issues which we get under Apache Tomcat

Type of Issues which we get under Apache/Tomcat:-
=====================================================================

A. Reducing the file size by compressing the existing files to reduce the used space on server.

1. First we need to check the size of file system. File size of the different file systems can be known by command df -k 
2. 1.       We can always check for file of bigger size and compress them if they are not compressed.
   sudo find . –size +5000000 |more
3.  Suppose you have got the output of last command as :- “/export/apps/apache/app_instance/logs/access_log” , then go to the path where this file exists... path should be something like "/export/apps/apache/app_instance/logs"
4. Then you need to go to the bin folder of this particular application, example for this file: - /export/apps/apache/app_instance/bin and then you have to stop the apache services with command - “sudo ./apachectl stop” 
5. And to check if the instances are stopped or not then we need to run a command that will be: - “ps -ef|grep -i”.
6. Once you are confirmed that all the instances are stopped then go and rename the file i.e. :- “sudo mv access_log access_log_current_date”.Once, name of file is change you can zip the log with command “sudo gzip access_log_current date”.
7.  Now you can again check the file system with command df -k. It will be surely reduced file system then before. Side wise we should also restart the apache service that stopped, for this we will again have to go to “bin” directory (/export/apps/apache/app_instance/bin) and command  “sudo ./apachectl start” can be used to start the apache service.
8. So once the services are started you need to do check the log directory if the new log file has been created or not and you need to do the same steps for all the files which you find under large files.

Note :- At times when we get other files as large files we need to check the time stamp of the files so that we can zip the files.

===================================================================

B. To redirect a particular website or a particular address to a different address.

Single address redirect can be done by adding a line to the conf file where the site is hosted.

Two types of redirection can be done.

1.)     Domain  redirection

2.)     Web page redirection.

1.)     Domain Redirection

Domain redirection is to redirect whole domain to of site to another site.

 www.a1.domain1.com 

Above domain needs redirects to another site http://xxx5.lvs.domain1.com/dir4/dir5/     

Note: Host name –“dir4” must be mentioned in documented root as virtually

Document Root: /dir1/dir2/dir3/ (check on the path)

Open “httpd.conf” of apache in which you want to make the redirection.Use vi editor (make sure take the backup of configuration file before any changes in it)

  Run command - vi “httpd.conf” and then add

    Document Root /dir1/dir2/dir3/dir4/dir5/ 

    Server Name        www.a1.domain1.com 

    Server Alias         a1.domain1.com 

    Redirect permanent  /   http://xxx5.lvs.domain1.com/dir4/dir5/ 

There after recycle same Apache to affect the changes.

2.)     Web page redirection.

Web page redirection is permanent redirection of link to another link; it redirects always link to domain or link to domain+directoty/link – (whole web page).

Link - /dir1/dir2/

It will redirect the link “/dir1/dir2/” to desired web page, it does not take prefixed domain name

Whatever the domain name is prefixed to link it will redirect to desired web page.

User wants to redirect the link - /dir1/dir2/  which is mentioned in documented root of  application, to http://qwerty.domain.com/display/ddmx/Home.

Whatever domain prefixed   to link it ignores the domain and redirects the link to desired site.

Example:

xxx1.lvs.domain.com/dir1/dir2/ 
or xxx2.lvs.domain.com/dir1/dir2/  
or xxx5.lvs.domain.com/dir1/dir2/  
after changes in configuration for redirection to desired site, it will concentrate to link only and open the other site.

User wants to redirect http://xxx5.lvs.domain.com/dir1/dir2/index.html to

                                     http://qwerty.es.domain.com/a/b/Home.

Path - :/export/apps/apache/Apache2.0.54/conf

File - httpd.conf

Vi httpd.conf and add the below line in redirection parameter of file.

Redirect permanent   /dir1/dir2/index.html  “http://qwerty.es.dupont.com/a/b/Home”

Recycle Apache after addition in file to affect the changes.

Note;- Before redirecting, first we need to check if single address needs to be redirected to a different address or a new website is hosted on our server


=====================================================================


C. To change the look of the URL

Re-write Engine modifies a web URL's appearance. This modification is called URL rewriting. Rewritten URLs are used to provide shorter and more relevant-looking links to web pages.

Re-write redirects the URL to the directory of webapps in which war file is deployed. It redirects the URL of application to folder where war file of application is deployed.

Let’s take an example

There is a URL - http://app-dev.lvs.domain1.com , if we click on URL then the actual web page does not come up, it opens “tomcat successfully installation page”. The actual web page is http://app-dev.lvs.domain1.com/app-war-d . I had to write complete URL along with /app-war-d.  to  get the actual web page.

Re-write rule comes in picture now; Re-write engine redirect the JK_Mount in httpd.conf file in instance directory on server.

Login to the server on which the application is hosted .Go to the directory of apache of instance and make changes in httpd.conf file of application.

Export/apps/apache//conf

vi edit the httpd.con file. There is Re-write Engine Module in configuration file.

JK Mount mounting application to URL

Uncomment the RewriteRule by remove the “# key” and then replace the re-write folder name with the name of folder in which war file of application is deployed. Navigate the directory export/apps/tomcat///webapps , in webapps there could be folder(suppose 'app-air-d') in which war file must be deployed , so use the name of that folder in which war file deployed.

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule  ^/$  /app-air-d/ [R]

#JkMount /* app-dev

Recycle the apache of instance to get the changes affected. Try to open the URL http://app-dev.lvs.domain1.com and it will redirect to substitute directory http://app-dev.lvs.domain.com/app-war-d.

@ Important

1. Make sure Re-write Engine should be ON, in httpd.conf file of apache.
2. An ISO file mod_rewrite.so file must be saved on module director of apache. I fit is not there then download it and copy into module directory. 

=====================================================================

D. MIME TYPE updation

The Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) types file contains mappings between file extensions and MIME types. This file is utilized during request processing to tell the server what type of resource is being requested. It bases this information on the extension of the resource (such as .txt, .html, or .cgi) and associates a type, language, or encoding method based on the extension.

Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) is an Internet standard that extends the format of email to support.

An Internet media type is a standard identifier used on the Internet to indicate the type of data that a file contains.

email clients use them to identify attachment files,

    web browsers use them to determine how to display or output files that are not in HTML format,

    search engines use them to classify data files on the web.

  

There are 3 things in MIMI TYPE updations

1.    File Type – Characteristics of the file , weather it is HTML , EXEL , WORD DOC., PPT like ...

2.    File Extension – The Extension of file after “.” .doc, .xls, .ppt,.html.

3.    MIMI TYPE - Type of Application format. Like template , micro

MIMI TYPE is arranged alphabetically, The MIMI TYPE is divided in 3 parts and all 3 parts are arranged alphabetically.

Example.

I am assuming that you are not logged in with apache ID so the I am using "sudo" with each command.

cdcux00:neha:/export/apps/apache/app_name/httpd-2.0.65> sudo ./configure --enable-mods-shared=most --prefix=/export/apps/apache/app_name --with-mpm=worker


Similarly it could also be installed under a folder inside any directory residing in the "app_name" folder

cdcux00:neha:/export/apps/apache/app_name/httpd-2.0.65> sudo ./configure --enable-mods-shared=most --prefix=/export/apps/apache/app_name/app_name-apache --with-mpm=worker


cdcux00:neha:/export/apps/apache/app_name/httpd-2.0.65>sudo make

Till these two steps you will not be able to see the apache installed

cdcux00:neha:/export/apps/apache/app_name/httpd-2.0.65> sudo make install

after this step you will be able to see the apache installed.

cdcux00:neha:/export/apps/apache/app_name/app_name-apache>ls -lrt

file " httpd-std.conf" is the copy of the httpd.conf. Even then you can't find it, take backup of current httpd.conf (to be on safer side) and then do the following changes.

cdcux00:neha:/export/apps/apache/app_name/app_name-apache/conf>vi httpd.conf

Listen  xx.XX.xxx.XXX:80

ServerName app_name.domain.com

User apache
Group www

for directory index page
 make a html file named "mytesting.html" and keep this inside "cdcux00:neha:/export/apps/apache/app_name/app_name-apache/htdocs"

make following changes in the httpd.conf file 

DirectoryIndex mytesting.html

Now restart the Apache. now when you will look up " app_name.domain.com" on internet explorer this will show the page "mytesting.html" that you made.
