Installation on Red Hat/CentOS

LL::NG requires at least Red Hat/CentOS 7

Organization

LemonLDAP::NG provides packages for Red Hat/Centos 7:

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

Get the packages

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
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
You must also install the EPEL repository for non-core dependencies. See prerequisites and dependencies chapter for more.

Manual download

RPMs are available on the Download page.

Package GPG signature

The GPG key can be downloaded here: rpm-gpg-key-ow2

Install it to trust RPMs:

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:

yum install lemonldap-ng

You can also use yum on local RPMs file:

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

With RPM

Before installing the packages, install all dependencies.

You have then to install all the downloaded packages:

rpm -Uvh lemonldap-ng-* perl-Lemonldap-NG-*
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.

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/*
