Installing on SLES
Install a PingAccess agent on a SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) system.
Before you begin
This procedure makes the following assumptions:
-
The Apache configuration directory is
/etc/apache2/conf.d
-
The Apache modules directory is
/usr/lib64/apache2
For custom installations:
-
Modify the configuration and module paths below as needed.
-
Edit the included
paa.conf
file to modify the values for Apache’s configuration and module directories.
Steps
-
Download and extract
pingaccess-agent-apacheversion.zip
. -
Go to the
pingaccess-agent-apacheversion
directory. -
If you are installing on SLES 12, import the gpg key:
rpm --import https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/messaging:/zeromq:/release-stable/SLE_12_SP4/repodata/repomd.xml.key
-
Install the dependencies.
zypper in ./x86_64/lib*.rpm
-
As root, copy the PingAccess Agent for Apache files to the appropriate places.
cp ./x86_64/mod_paa.so /usr/lib64/apache2 cp paa.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d
By default, Apache on SLES will automatically include all
.conf
files contained withinconf.d
using the IncludeOptional directive. If this has been disabled, add the following to Apache’shttpd.conf
.Include /etc/apache2/conf.d/paa.conf
-
In the PingAccess console, go to Applications → Agents.
-
Edit a configured agent.
If the agent has not yet been created, see the PingAccess User Interface Reference Guide.
-
In the shared secret, click the Download icon to download the configuration.
The configuration file will be named
agentname_agent.properties
. -
Copy the
agentname_agent.properties
file to/etc/apache2/conf.d/agent.properties
-
As root, restart the Apache service using one of the following commands:
Choose from:
-
rcapache2 restart
-
$APACHE_ROOT/bin/apachectl restart
-
