If the above command confirms that Java 8 is installed, you can go on with the oxd installation.

The oxd Linux packages provide an easy way to install the oxd-server. Follow the steps below to get started:

Step 1: Find the proper Linux package below.

Step 2: After the installation, configure your oxd server.

Step 3: Run oxd server:

Manual installation#

The oxd-server is a self-contained program.

To run oxd-server:

  1. download oxd distribution zip: https://ox.gluu.org/maven/org/gluu/oxd-server/4.0.Final/oxd-server-4.0.Final-distribution.zip

  2. create a new directory ($OXD_SERVER_HOME) with appropriate name and unzip the downloaded oxd-server-4.0.Final-distribution.zip into it.

  3. move to $OXD_SERVER_HOME/conf folder and edit oxd-server.yml file to make necessary configuration changes (like setting correct absolute path of oxd-server.keystore in keyStorePath property etc.)

  4. now go to $OXD_SERVER_HOME/bin folder and start oxd-server using below command

Windows:

oxd-start.bat 

Linux:

sh oxd-start.sh

Manual Build oxd-server Server#

If you're a Java geek, you can build the oxd-server server using Maven.

The code is available in Github.

The following command can be run inside the oxd folder to run the build:

  $ mvn clean package

oxd-server Uninstall Procedure#

Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial)#

/etc/init.d/oxd-server stop
sudo apt-get remove oxd-server
apt-get purge oxd-server

Ubuntu 18.04 (bionic)/Debian 9 (stretch)#

systemctl stop oxd-server
sudo apt-get remove oxd-server
apt-get purge oxd-server

CentOS 7/RHEL 7#

systemctl stop oxd-server
yum remove oxd-server
rm -rf /opt/oxd-server.save

Utility scripts#

View, delete entries inside the oxd-server database with lsox.sh or lsox.bat scripts#

There are four types of parameters which can be used by lsox.sh/lsox.bat files:

  • -l - list all oxd_ids inside the oxd database
  • -oxd_id <oxd_id> - view JSON representation of the entity by oxd_id
  • -d - removes entity by oxd_id.
  • -a - authorization access_token (e.g. lsox.sh -a gf4566-dlt456-emtr56-ddmg5kd). It is optional if oxd is not running. If it is running then it is REQUIRED. This is true if h2 database is used for persistence which is default. The reason is that if oxd is running it locks h2 database file. The lock is exclusive, so script can't access the file while oxd is running. To handle it script needs authorization via -a parameter. Authorization means access_token obtained via /get-client-token API call (same as Authorization header value used for all API calls).

The script is located in /opt/oxd-server/bin/lsox.sh. If you hit the script without any parameters, it shows a hint:

yuriy@yuriyz:~/oxd-server-distribution/bin$ sh lsox.sh
BASEDIR=.
CONF=./../conf/oxd-server.yml
Missing required option: oxd_id
usage: utility-name
 -oxd_id,--oxd_id <arg>   oxd_id is unique identifier within oxd database
                          (returned by register_site and setup_client
                          commands)
 -l,--list                list all oxd_ids inside oxd database
 -d,--delete              deletes entry from oxd database                         

A typical call looks like this:

yuriy@yuriyz:~/oxd-server-4.0-SNAPSHOT-distribution/bin$ sh lsox.sh -oxd_id d8cc6dea-4d66-4995-b6e1-da3a33722f2e -a gf4566-dlt456-emtr56-ddmg5kd
