Procedure 5.2. Installing JBoss Fuse

1. Download the JBoss Fuse Full Installation

   You can download the Red Hat JBoss Fuse archive from the Red Hat Customer Portal>Downloads>Red Hat JBoss Middleware>Downloads page, after you register and login to your customer account.
   When logged in:
   1. Select Fuse, listed under Integrated Platforms in the sidebar menu.
   2. Select 6.1.0 from the Version drop-down list on the Software Downloads page.
   3. Click the Download button next to the Red Hat JBoss Fuse 6.1.0 distribution file to download.
   JBoss Fuse allows you to choose between installations that contain different feature sets. To run JBoss Data Grid with JBoss Fuse, the Full installation is required. The Full installation includes the following:
   • Apache Karaf
   • Apache Camel
   • Apache ActiveAMQ
   • Apache CXF
   • Fuse Management
   • Console (hawtio)
   • JBI components

2. Unpacking the Archive

   Red Hat JBoss Fuse is installed by unpacking an archive on a system. JBoss Fuse is packaged as a zip file. Using a suitable archive tool, unpack Red Hat JBoss Fuse into a directory to which you have full access.

   Warning

   Do not unpack the archive file into a folder that has spaces in its path name. For example, do not unpack into C:\Documents and Settings\Greco Roman\Desktop\fusesrc.

   Additionally, do not unpack the archive file into a folder that has any of the following special characters in its path name: #, %, ^, ".

3. Adding a Remote Console User

   The server's remote command console is not configured with a default user. Before remotely connecting to the server's console, add a user to the configuration.

   Important

   The information in this file is unencrypted so it is not suitable for environments that require strict security.
   To add a user:
   1. Open InstallDir/etc/users.properties in your favorite text editor.
   2. Locate the line #admin=admin,admin. This line specifies a user admin with the password admin and the role admin.
   3. Remove the leading # to uncomment the line.
   4. Replace the first admin with a name for the user.
   5. Replace the second admin with the password for the user.
   6. Leave the last admin as it is, and save the changes.

   Note

   To access the Fuse Management Console to monitor and manage your Camel routes, ActiveMQ brokers, Web applications, and so on, open a browser to

   http://localhost:8181/hawtio

   , after starting Red Hat JBoss Fuse.

4. Red Hat JBoss Fuse Maven Repositories

   To use Maven to build projects, specify the location of the artifacts in a Maven settings.xml file.
   The following JBoss Fuse Maven repository contains the required dependencies for Camel and must be added to the settings.xml file.

   https://repo.fusesource.com/nexus/content/groups/public/

   The JBoss Fuse repository runs alongside the JBoss Data Grid repository.
   JBoss Data Grid includes a features.xml file for Karaf that deploys all artifacts required for the camel-jbossdatagrid component. This file is not included in the JBoss Fuse container distribution. The features.xml file is in jboss-datagrid-6.6.1-maven-repository/org/apache/camel/camel-jbossdatagrid/${version}/. No further configuration of the JBoss Data Grid repository is required.
   For more information about installing and getting started with JBoss Fuse, see the Red Hat JBoss Fuse documentation on the Red Hat Customer Portal.
