This section will walk a developer through the steps of setting up Moves, on Windows or Linux. It does not cover OC4J installation, since that is covered elsewhere in this Wiki.

Prerequisites

A machine running Windows or Linux. (This should work for Macs too... but the author does not use a mac).
OC4J should be running, and accessible on port 8888 (preferably).
In your oc4j/j2ee/home/config folder, there should be a file called default-web-site.xml, that looks something like this:

Example default-web-site.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<web-site xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oracleas/schema/web-site-10_0.xsd"
    port="8888"
    display-name="OC4J 10g (10.1.3) Default Web Site"
    schema-major-version="10"
    schema-minor-version="0" > 
	<default-web-app application="default" name="defaultWebApp" />
	<web-app application="system" name="dms0" root="/dmsoc4j" />
	<web-app application="system" name="dms0" root="/dms0" />
	<web-app application="system" name="JMXSoapAdapter-web" root="/JMXSoapAdapter" />
	<web-app application="default" name="jmsrouter_web" load-on-startup="true" root="/jmsrouter" />
	<web-app application="javasso" name="javasso-web" root="/jsso" />
	<web-app application="ascontrol" name="ascontrol" load-on-startup="true" root="/em" ohs-routing="false" />
	<access-log path="../log/default-web-access.log" split="day" />
</web-site>

(Don't worry that we will not be developing over https, since in production, https is handled by the apache server).

What we'll set up

  • A recent JDK, with strong cryptography enabled
  • Kerberos
  • Subversion with kerberos authentication
  • Maven
  • Trustores
  • The link to the Development Moves component registry.

Setting up your JDK.

Get as recent a version of the JDK as MIT IS&T support, and install the Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) Unlimited Strength FOR THAT JDK. Make sure you get the JDK, and not just the JRE. Also make sure that the JDK is the FIRST java found in your path, and that you have the System environment variable JAVA_HOME pointing to that JDK. To install the JCE, simply backup %JAVA_HOME%/jre/lib/security/local_policy.jar and %JAVA_HOME%/jre/lib/security/US_export_policy.jar with the copies in the JCE zip file. For my windows jdk, the location was C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.6.0_29/jre/lib/security.

Kerberos

Moves does a WHOLE LOT of subversion activity. Unless you set yourself up for password-less authentication, you're gonna spend most of your life typing in your kerb username and password over and over again. Since you probably won't get an ssh private key installed on svn.mit.edu, you're gonna have to set yourself up with Kerberos. When we have Kerberos hooked up with svn, you'll only have to type in your username once per session. (A session lasts for about 10 hours).

Kerberos on Ubuntu

Unless you have a private ssh key on
