.. danger::

    The package lemonldap-ng-nginx requires the nginx
    community package. If you use openrestry or Nginx plus, you must ignore
    this dependency. To do this, download the package and install it with:

    ::

       rpm --nodeps -i lemonldap-ng-nginx*.rpm


Prerequisites
-------------

LemonLDAP::NG has dependencies which are not in base RHEL repositories

You need to enable `EPEL repositories <https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/epel/#Quickstart>`__ before installing.

On RHEL8 and derivatives, you also also need to enable the PowerTools repository in ``/etc/yum.repos.d``.

Get the packages
----------------

.. _installrpm-yum-repository:

YUM repository
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You can add this YUM repository to get recent packages:

::

   vi /etc/yum.repos.d/lemonldap-ng.repo

::

   [lemonldap-ng]
   name=LemonLDAP::NG packages
   baseurl=https://lemonldap-ng.org/redhat/stable/$releasever/noarch
   enabled=1
   gpgcheck=1
   gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-OW2


.. tip::

    Replace ``stable`` by ``2.0`` to avoid upgrade to next major
    version

You may also need some extras packages, available here:

::

   [lemonldap-ng-extras]
   name=LemonLDAP::NG extra packages
   baseurl=https://lemonldap-ng.org/redhat/extras/$releasever
   enabled=1
   gpgcheck=1
   gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-OW2

Run this to update packages cache:

::

   yum update


Manual download
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

RPMs are available on the `Download page <https://lemonldap-ng.org/download.html>`__.

Package GPG signature
---------------------


Get the `RPM signing key <https://lemonldap-ng.org/_media/rpm-gpg-key-ow2>`__ onto your LemonLDAP::NG server:

::

   curl https://lemonldap-ng.org/_media/rpm-gpg-key-ow2 > /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-OW2

Install packages
----------------

With YUM
~~~~~~~~

If the packages are stored in a yum repository:

.. code-block:: shell

   yum install lemonldap-ng

   # If you use SELinux
   yum install lemonldap-ng-selinux

You can also use yum on local RPMs file:

::

   yum localinstall lemonldap-ng-* perl-Lemonldap-NG-*

With RPM
~~~~~~~~

You have then to install all the downloaded packages:

::

   yum install lemonldap-ng-* perl-Lemonldap-NG-*


.. tip::

    You can choose to install only one component by choosing the
    package ``lemonldap-ng-portal``, ``lemonldap-ng-handler`` or
    ``lemonldap-ng-manager``.

    Install the package ``lemonldap-ng-conf`` on all server which contains
    one of those packages.

First configuration steps
-------------------------

Change default DNS domain
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

By default, DNS domain is ``example.com``. You can change it quick with
a sed command. For example, we change it to ``ow2.org``:

.. code-block:: shell

   sed -i 's/example\.com/ow2.org/g' /etc/lemonldap-ng/* /var/lib/lemonldap-ng/conf/lmConf-1.json /etc/nginx/conf.d/* /etc/httpd/conf.d/*

Upgrade
~~~~~~~

If you upgraded LemonLDAP::NG, check all :doc:`upgrade notes<upgrade>`.

DNS
~~~

Configure your DNS server to resolve names with your server IP:

-  ``auth.<your domain>``: main portal, must be public
-  ``manager.<your domain>``: manager, only for adminsitrators
-  ``test1.<your domain>``, ``test2.<your domain>``: sample applications

Follow the :ref:`next steps<start-configuration>`

File location
-------------

-  Configuration is in ``/etc/lemonldap-ng``
-  LemonLDAP::NG configuration (edited by the Manager) is in
   ``/var/lib/lemonldap-ng/conf/``
-  All Perl modules are in the ``/usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl`` directory
-  All Perl scripts/pages are in ``/var/lib/lemonldap-ng/``
-  All static content (examples, CSS, images, etc.) is in
   ``/usr/share/lemonldap-ng/``
- Administration scripts are in ``/usr/libexec/lemonldap-ng/bin``

Build your packages
-------------------

If you need it, you can rebuild RPMs:

-  Install rpm-build package
-  Install all build dependencies (see BuildRequires in
   ``lemonldap-ng.spec`` )
-  Put LemonLDAP::NG tarball in ``%_topdir/SOURCES``
-  Edit ``~/.rpmmacros`` and set your build parameters:

::

   %_topdir /home/user/build
   %dist .el7
   %rhel 7

-  Go to ``%_topdir``
-  Build:

::

   rpmbuild -ta SOURCES/lemonldap-ng-VERSION.tar.gz
