OpenIDM Installation

Key Points

1. OpenIDM having in built server i.e Felix server so no need to installation any external server
2. OpenIDM having in built default orient DB as data base for development so no need to install any external database. But for production, it’s not recommended.
3. OpenIDM having sample project for different type of purpose so you can reuse it and update according to requirement.

 

Step 1: Default port change

 

OpenIDM default port is 8080 and this port might be using in your system so for better change the port to other port which is not using in your system

Here changing 8080 port to 8087

Go to D:\forgerock\blog\openidm\conf\boot

Open boot.properties file and change openidm.port.http parameter value

openidm.port.http=8080 –> openidm.port.http=8087

Save the file after port changed.

 

Step 2: Back-end Database Setup

 

Here we are using default embedded OrientDB as a back-end database so no need to install any other database.

Generally we need to file for database setup those are

1. datasource.jdbc-default.json

it contains database configuration details

2. repo.jdbc.json

it contains operational queries

Embedded OreintDB database one file is enough i.e repo.orientdb.json which is already available in the conf folder. so no need to do changes and leave it as it is.

You can find other database configuration in next article.

 

Step 3: Start OpenIDM

Open command prompt, and go to D:\forgerock\blog\openidm and then execute startup.bat

D:\forgerock\blog\openidm>startup.bat

Then OpenIDM popup window will be opened and wait for few minutes to start.

Here you can see -> OpenIDM ready. It means that OpenIDM installed successfully.

Now you can access OpenIDM by using the follow details

OpenIDM Admin Portal Details

Admin URL: http://localhost:8087/admin

Default Admin Username: openidm-admin
