IDM installing and deploying under JBOSS

[unlex]

Hi!

I'm quite new to the JBoss and IDM. May you provide a complete step-by-step instruction on how to install and deploy Picketlink IDM under JBoss AS 5, please?

I've read the reference guide , there is described deployment process in Chapter 29 and 30. But I havn't understand the sequence of actions. I.e where all these config.xml, jars and deployer files should be placed, and so on to get this working.

Thanks in advance.

Deploying IDM as a JBoss AS service may be usefull if you want to consume it from several apps. For a simple setup or for a single app you can bootstrap it easier manually. Please look at the provided examples. The example/simple is a maven project that bootstraps the service and perform some tests. The example/auth creates a simple sar archive that will start IDM service and populate it - then you can play with simple war secured with JAAS LoginModule leveraging IDM.

Well. Finally, after hours of considerable effort I've managed to deploy the idm into the JBoss AS 5. Now I can obtain IdentitySession object by JNDI lookup:

InitialContext ic = new InitialContext();            
IdentitySessionFactory idmSessionFactory = (IdentitySessionFactoryImpl) ic.lookup("java:/IdentitySessionFactory");
IdentitySession is = idmSessionFactory.getCurrentIdentitySession("realm://JBossIdentity");

But when I try to start transaction by is.beginTransaction(), I obtain the folowing error

What can be the reason?

Your hibernate configuration is probably relying on JTA transaction. Try surrounding your code with:

UserTransaction tx = (UserTransaction)ctx.lookup("UserTransaction");
tx.begin();

...

tx.commit();

Then you should not begin transactions manually with the IdentitySession. This is mainly Hibernate configuration part.

Thanks. Finally I successefuly configured my Hibernate settings. So it works fine now.
