Chapter 34. KIE Server ZIP file installation and configuration

Procedure

1. Extract the rhdm-7.11.0-add-ons.zip file.

2. From the extracted rhdm-7.11.0-add-ons.zip file, extract the following files:

   • rhdm-7.11.0-kie-server-jws.zip
   • rhdm-7.11.0-decision-engine.zip

   In the following instructions, the directory that contains the extracted rhdm-7.11.0-kie-server-jws.zip file is called JWS_TEMP_DIR and the directory that contains the extracted rhdm-7.11.0-decision-engine.zip file is called ENGINE_TEMP_DIR.

3. Copy the JWS_TEMP_DIR/rhdm-7.11.0-kie-server-jws/kie-server.war directory to the JWS_HOME/tomcat/webapps directory.

   Note

   Ensure the names of the Red Hat Decision Manager deployments you copy do not conflict with your existing deployments in the Red Hat JBoss Web Server instance.

4. Remove the .war extensions from the kie-server.war folder.
5. Move the kie-tomcat-integration-7.52.0.Final-redhat-00007.jar file from the ENGINE_TEMP_DIR directory to the JWS_HOME/tomcat/lib directory.
6. Move the jboss-jacc-api-<VERSION>.jar, slf4j-api-<VERSION>.jar, and slf4j-jdk14-<VERSION>.jar files from the ENGINE_TEMP_DIR/lib directory to the JWS_HOME/tomcat/lib directory, where <VERSION> is the version artifact file name, in the lib directory.

7. Add the following line to the <host> element in the JWS_HOME/tomcat/conf/server.xml file after the last Valve definition:

   <Valve className="org.kie.integration.tomcat.JACCValve" />

8. Open the JWS_HOME/tomcat/conf/tomcat-users.xml file in a text editor.

9. Add users and roles to the JWS_HOME/tomcat/conf/tomcat-users.xml file. In the following example, <ROLE_NAME> is a role supported by Red Hat Decision Manager. <USER_NAME> and <USER_PWD> are the user name and password of your choice:

   <role rolename="<ROLE_NAME>"/>
   <user username="<USER_NAME>" password="<USER_PWD>" roles="<ROLE_NAME>"/>

   If a user has more than one role, as shown in the following example, separate the roles with a comma:

   <role rolename="admin"/>
   <role rolename="kie-server"/>
   <user username="rhdmUser" password="user1234" roles="admin,kie-server"/>

10. Complete one of the following steps in the JWS_HOME/tomcat/bin directory:

    • On Linux or UNIX, create the setenv.sh file with the following content:

      CATALINA_OPTS="-Xmx1024m
       -Dorg.jboss.logging.provider=jdk
       -Dorg.jbpm.server.ext.disabled=true
       -Dorg.jbpm.ui.server.ext.disabled=true
       -Dorg.jbpm.case.server.ext.disabled=true"

    • On Windows, add the following content to the setenv.bat file:

      set CATALINA_OPTS="-Xmx1024m -Dorg.jboss.logging.provider=jdk -Dorg.jbpm.server.ext.disabled=true -Dorg.jbpm.ui.server.ext.disabled=true -Dorg.jbpm.case.server.ext.disabled=true
