Package installation
The Jiglu RPM packages can be downloaded from https://www.jiglu.com/download/.
First install the public key for the Jiglu RPM packages so that they can be verified as genuine:
wget https://www.jiglu.com/download/jiglu-rpm-key.txt
rpm --import jiglu-rpm-key.txt
Now copy the packages to a directory on the server and then use:
rpm -U jiglu-version.rpm jiglu-webapp-version.rpm
Changing version for the version number of the RPMs.
Configuration
There is a large amount of flexibility in configuring Jiglu for different architectures and installation sizes. This is controlled through the /etc/jiglu/bootstrap.properties file. At a minimum the following properties in the file need to be changed:
| The protocol by which end-users access the site. This will normally be https. |
| The host at which end-users access the site. This needs to match the value you set in Tomcat’s server.xml. |
| The port at which end-users access the site. This will normally be 443 to match the https protocol above. |
| The domain at which email messages are sent to the Jiglu system. |
| The hostname of the mail server that will send on email messages from the Jiglu system. |
| The port of the mail server that will send on email messages from the Jiglu system. For a mail submission agent, such as sendmail or postfix, running on the same machine this will normally be 587. For external hosts it will normally be 25. |
| The JDBC URL for connecting to the database server. |
| The password for the Jiglu database user at the database server. |
com.jiglu.jdbc.ownerPassword | The password for the Jiglu owner user at the database server. |
