Chapter 7. Installing the headless Process Automation Manager controller

Procedure

1. Extract the rhpam-7.1-controller-jws.zip archive to a temporary directory. In the following examples this directory is called TEMP_DIR.

2. Copy the TEMP_DIR/rhpam-7.1-controller-jws.zip/controller.war directory to the JWS_HOME/tomcat/webapps directory.

   Warning

   Ensure the names of the Red Hat Process Automation Manager deployments you are copying do not conflict with your existing deployments in the Red Hat JBoss Web Server instance.

3. Remove the .war extensions from the controller.war folder.
4. Copy the contents of the TEMP_DIR/rhpam-7.1-controller-jws/SecurityPolicy/ directory to JWS_HOME/bin. When asked to overwrite files, select Yes.

5. Add the kie-server role and user to the JWS_HOME/tomcat/conf/tomcat-users.xml file. In the following example, <USERNAME> and <PASSWORD> is a user and password combination of your choice:

   <role rolename="kie-server"/>
   <user username="<USER_NAME>" password="<PASSWORD>" roles="kie-server"/>

6. In the JWS_HOME/tomcat/bin directory of the instance running Process Server, create a readable setenv.sh file with the following content:

   CATALINA_OPTS="-Xmx1024m -Dorg.jbpm.server.ext.disabled=true -Dorg.jbpm.ui.server.ext.disabled=true -Dorg.jbpm.case.server.ext.disabled=true -Dorg.kie.server.controller.user=<CONTROLLER_USER> -Dorg.kie.server.controller.pwd=<CONTROLLER_PWD> -Dorg.kie.server.id=<KIE_SERVER_ID> -Dorg.kie.server.location=http://<HOST>:<PORT>/kie-server/services/rest/server -Dorg.kie.server.controller=http://<HOST>:<PORT>/controller/rest/controller"

7. In the JWS_HOME/tomcat/bin directory of the instance running the headless Process Automation Manager controller, create a readable setenv.sh file with the following content:

   CATALINA_OPTS="-Dorg.kie.server.user=<USERNAME> -Dorg.kie.server.pwd=<USER_PWD>"

8. To start the headless Process Automation Manager controller, enter one of the following commands in the JWS_HOME/tomcat/bin directory:

   • On Linux or UNIX-based systems:

     $ ./startup.sh

   • On Windows:

     startup.bat

9. After a few minutes, review the the JWS_HOME/tomcat/logs directory and correct any errors.

10. To verify that the headless Process Automation Manager controller is working on Red Hat JBoss Web Server, enter the following command. In this command, replace <CONTROLLER> and <CONTROLLER_PWD> with the values in the tomcat-users.xml file. The output of this command provides information about the Process Server instance.

    curl -X GET "http://<HOST>:<PORT>/controller/rest/controller/management/servers" -H  "accept: application/xml" -u '<CONTROLLER>:<CONTROLLER_PWD>'
