      To load balance connections between the agent and an AM site, enter the URL of the load balancer in front of the AM site.

      If a reverse proxy is configured between AM and the agent, enter the proxy URL. For more information, refer to Configure an Apache HTTP Server as a reverse proxy.

    2. Enter the $CATALINA_HOME environment variable, specifying the path to the root of the Tomcat server:

      ...
[ ? : Help, < : Back, ! : Exit ]
Enter the $CATALINA_HOME environment variable: /path/to/apache-tomcat

    3. Enter the agent URL:

      ...
[ ? : Help, < : Back, ! : Exit ]
Agent URL: https://agent.example.com:443/app

    4. Enter the name of the agent profile created in AM:

      ...
[ ? : Help, < : Back, ! : Exit ]
Enter the Agent Profile name: java-agent

    5. Enter the AM realm containing the agent profile. Realms are case-sensitive.

      ...

    After successful installation, the installer adds the agent configuration to the Tomcat configuration, and sets up configuration and log directories for the agent.

  7. Test the installation by browsing to a resource that the agent protects. AM redirects you to authenticate. After authentication, AM redirects you back to the requested resource.

Install Tomcat Java Agent silently

Use the agentadmin --useResponse command for silent installation. For information about the option, refer to agentadmin command.

The following example uses a response file containing the same configuration as in Install Tomcat Java Agent interactively.

  1. Review the information in Before you install, and perform the steps in Preinstallation tasks.

  2. Shut down the Tomcat server where you plan to install the agent.

  3. Make sure AM is running.

  4. Create a response file with the following content, at /path/to/response-file:

    # Response File
CONFIG_DIR= /path/to/apache-tomcat/conf
AM_SERVER_URL= https://am.example.com:8443/am
CATALINA_HOME= /path/to/apache-tomcat
AGENT_URL= https://agent.example.com:443/app
AGENT_PROFILE_NAME= java-agent
AGENT_PROFILE_REALM= /
AGENT_PASSWORD_FILE= /secure-directory/pwd.txt
AGENT_SIGNING_FILE= /secure-directory/signing-key.txt

  5. Run the agentadmin command with the --useResponse option:

    $ agentadmin --install --useResponse /path/to/response-file

Install in a subrealm

Other installation examples install the agent in the top-level realm. To install the agent in a subrealm during interactive or silent installation, use the subrealm during the installation or in the response file. For example, instead of:

AGENT_PROFILE_REALM = /

specify:

AGENT_PROFILE_REALM = /myrealm

Even though the agent is installed in a subrealm, the default login redirect requires users to log into the top-level realm. For information about how to change the login, refer to Use the request domain to redirect login to a different realm.

Install JBoss Java Agent

The examples in this section assume that you are using JBoss, but the procedures are the same for WildFly. Agent binaries for JBoss and WildFly are the same.

Install JBoss Java Agent interactively

  1. Review the information in Before you install, and perform the steps in Preinstallation tasks.

  2. Shut down the JBoss server where you plan to install the agent.

Enter the path to the JBoss installation: /path/to/jboss

  6. Enter the name of the deployment mode for the JBoss installation:

    • standalone: Manage a single JBoss instance

      In standalone mode, the agent installer uses an auto-deployment feature provided by the JBoss deployment scanner so that you do not have to deploy the agentapp.war manually.

    • domain: Manage multiple server instances from a single control point.

      In this mode, at the end of the procedure, you must manually deploy the java_agents/jboss_agent/etc/agentapp.war file to JBoss.

  7. Enter the name of the profile to use in standalone or domain mode:

    • standalone: Default.

    • full: Supports Java EE 6 Full Profile, and subsystems that are not required for high-availability.

    • ha: Enables all default subsystems, and adds the clustering capabilities.

    • full-ha: Enables all default subsystems, including those required for high-availability, and adds clustering capabilities.

  8. Choose whether to deploy the agent as a global JBoss module.

    ...
[ ? : Help, < : Back, ! : Exit ]
Install agent as global module? [true]: true

    To include specific modules for a web application, enter false, and complete the additional steps at the end of this procedure.

  9. Enter the AM URL, including the deployment URI:

    ...
[ ? : Help, < : Back, ! : Exit ]
AM server URL: https://am.example.com:8443/am

    To load balance connections between the agent and an AM site, enter the URL of the load balancer in front of the AM site.

    After successful completion, the installer updates the JBoss configuration, adds the agent web application under JBOSS_HOME/server/standalone/deployments, and sets up configuration and log directories for the agent.

  15. Follow these steps if you responded false to the question Deploy the policy agent as a global JBoss module during the installation:

    1. Add the following line to the web application file /path/to/protected/app/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF:

      Dependencies: org.forgerock.openam.agent

    2. Create a file at /path/to/protected/app/WEB-INF/jboss-deployment-structure.xml with the following content:

      <?xml version="1.0"?>
 <jboss-deployment-structure xmlns="urn:jboss:deployment-structure:1.2" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
  <deployment>
   <dependencies>
    <module name="org.forgerock.openam.agent" >
     <imports>
      <include path="META-INF"/>
      <include path="org"/>
     </imports>
    </module>
   </dependencies>
  </deployment>
</jboss-deployment-structure>

  16. If you chose domain as the deployment mode, manually deploy the java_agents/jboss_agent/etc/agentapp.war file to JBoss.

  17. Test the installation by browsing to a resource that the agent protects. AM redirects you to authenticate. After authentication, AM redirects you back to the requested resource.

Install JBoss Java Agent Silently

To install the Java Agent silently, create a response file containing the installation parameters, and then provide it to the agentadmin command.

The following is an example response file to install the agent when JBoss is configured in standalone mode:

# Agent User Response File
HOME_DIR= /path/to/jboss
INSTANCE_NAME= standalone
GLOBAL_MODULE= true
INSTALL_PROFILE_NAME=
AM_SERVER_URL= https://am.example.com:8443/am
AGENT_URL= https://agent.example.com:443/app
AGENT_PROFILE_NAME= JBossAgent
AGENT_PROFILE_REALM= /
AGENT_PASSWORD_FILE= /secure-directory/pwd.txt
AGENT_SIGNING_FILE= /secure-directory/signing-key.txt

The INSTALL_PROFILE_NAME variable is used only when the INSTANCE_NAME is set to domain. It specifies the name of the JBoss domain profile.

To load balance connections between the agent and an AM site, set AM_SERVER_URL to the URL of the load balancer in front of the AM site.

If a reverse proxy is configured between AM and the agent, set AM_SERVER_URL to the proxy URL. For more information, refer to Configure an Apache HTTP Server as a reverse proxy.

  1. Review the information in Before you install, and perform the steps in Preinstallation tasks.

  2. Make sure that the response file for the installation is ready, or create a response file, for example:

    $ agentadmin --install --saveResponse response-file

  3. Shut down the JBoss server where you plan to install the agent.

  4. Make sure AM is running.

  5. Run the agentadmin command with the --useResponse option:

    $ agentadmin --install --useResponse /path/to/response-file

  6. If you configured the GLOBAL_MODULE variable as false in the response file, add the following line to the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file of the web application:

    Dependencies: org.forgerock.openam.agent

  7. If you configured the INSTANCE_NAME variable as domain in the response file, manually deploy the java_agents/jboss_agent/etc/agentapp.war file to JBoss.

Install in a subrealm

Other installation examples install the agent in the top-level realm. To install the agent in a subrealm during interactive or silent installation, use the subrealm during the installation or in the response file. For example, instead of:

AGENT_PROFILE_REALM = /

specify:

AGENT_PROFILE_REALM = /myrealm

Even though the agent is installed in a subrealm, the default login redirect requires users to log into the top-level realm. For information about how to change the login, refer to Use the request domain to redirect login to a different realm.

Install Jetty Java Agent

Consider the following points before you install:

  • For installation on Jetty 12, you can use Javax EE8, Jakarta EE9, or Jakarta EE10. Make sure you use the correct agent (Javax or Jakarta) for your environment.

  • Command-line examples in this chapter show Jetty accessed remotely. If you have issues accessing Jetty remotely, consider changing the filter settings in the deployment descriptor file, /path/to/jetty/webapps/test/WEB-INF/web.xml, as shown in the following example:

     <filter>
 <filter-name>TestFilter</filter-name>
 <filter-class>com.acme.TestFilter</filter-class>
 <init-param>
   <param-name>remote</param-name>
   <param-value>true</param-value> <!-- default: false -->
 </init-param>
</filter>

Jetty configuration

The Jetty compliance mode is configured by default to prevent path traversal vulnerabilities. Consider the impact on security before you change org.eclipse.jetty.http.UriCompliance to a less safe value such as UNSAFE or RFC3986.

Install Jetty Java Agent interactively

Install WebLogic Java Agent in multi-server domains

In many WebLogic domains, the administration server provides a central point for controlling and managing the configuration of the managed servers that host protected web applications.

If WebLogic-managed servers run on different hosts, you must create separate agent profiles and perform separate installations for each so that AM can send notifications to the appropriate addresses.

Install WebLogic Java Agent on administration and managed servers

  1. If servers are on different hosts, create agent profiles for each server where you plan to install the agent. For more information, refer to Installing the WebLogic Java Agent.

  2. Prepare your protected web applications by adding the agent filter configuration as described in Configure the agent filter for a web application.

  3. Use the agentadmin command to install the agent either interactively, or silently on each server in the domain:

  4. On each managed server in the domain, update the classpath to include agent .jar files.

    In WebLogic Node Manager console, navigate to Environment > Servers > server > Server Start > Class Path, and then edit the classpath as in the following example, but all on a single line:

    /path/to/java_agents/weblogic_agent/lib/agent.jar:
/path/to/java_agents/weblogic_agent/lib/openssoclientsdk.jar:
 ...
/path/to/java_agents/weblogic_agent/locale:
/path/to/java_agents/weblogic_agent/Agent_001/config:
$CLASSPATH

    Replace the paths in the example with the actual paths for your domain.

  5. Restart the managed servers.
