Shibboleth IdP v3.3.2 on Ubuntu Linux LTS 18.04

Installation assumes you have already installed Ubuntu Server 18.04 with default configuration and has a public IP connectivity with DNS setup

Lets Assume your server hostname as idp.YOUR-DOMAIN

All commands are to be run as root and you may use sudo su to become root

  1. Install the packages required:
    apt-get install vim default-jdk ca-certificates openssl tomcat8 apache2 ntp expat
    

  1. Modify /etc/hosts:
    vim /etc/hosts
    
     127.0.0.1 idp.YOUR-DOMAIN idp
    

(Replace idp.YOUR-DOMAIN with your IdP FQDN)

  1. Define the costants JAVA_HOME and IDP_SRC inside /etc/environment:
    • update-alternatives --config java
      
      (copy the path without /bin/java)
    • vim /etc/environment```
      
           JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64
           IDP_SRC=/usr/local/src/shibboleth-identity-provider-3.3.2
      
    • source /etc/environment
      
    • export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64
      
    • export IDP_SRC=/usr/local/src/shibboleth-identity-provider-3.3.2
      
  1. Configure /etc/default/tomcat8:
    • update-alternatives --config java
      
      (copy the path without /bin/java)
    • update-alternatives --config javac
      
    • vim /etc/default/tomcat8
      
      JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64
      ...
      JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -XX:+DisableExplicitGC -XX:+UseParallelOldGC -Xms256m -Xmx1g -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/./urandom"
      

(This settings configure the memory of the JVM that will host the IdP Web Application. The Memory value depends on the phisical memory installed on the machine. On production environment Set the "Xmx" (max heap space available to the JVM) at least to 2GB)

  1. Download the Shibboleth Identity Provider v3.3.2:
    • cd /usr/local/src
      
    • wget http://shibboleth.net/downloads/identity-provider/3.3.2/shibboleth-identity-provider-3.3.2.tar.gz
      
    • tar -xzvf shibboleth-identity-provider-3.3.2.tar.gz
      
    • cd shibboleth-identity-provider-3.3.2
      
  1. Generate Passwords for later use in the installation
    •    tr -c -d '0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz' </dev/urandom | dd bs=32 count=1 2>/dev/null;echo
      

Note: You will need two password string, ###PASSWORD-FOR-BACKCHANNEL### and ###PASSWORD-FOR-COOKIE-ENCRYPTION###

  1. Run the installer install.sh to install Shibboleth Identity Provider v3.3.2:
    •    ./bin/install.sh
      
         root@idp:/usr/local/src/shibboleth-identity-provider-3.3.2# ./bin/install.sh
         Source (Distribution) Directory: [/usr/local/src/shibboleth-identity-provider-3.3.2]
         Installation Directory: [/opt/shibboleth-idp]
         Hostname: [localhost.localdomain]
         idp.YOUR-DOMAIN
         SAML EntityID: [https://idp.YOUR-DOMAIN/idp/shibboleth]
         Attribute Scope: [localdomain]
         YOUR-DOMAIN
         Backchannel PKCS12 Password: ###PASSWORD-FOR-BACKCHANNEL###
         Re-enter password:           ###PASSWORD-FOR-BACKCHANNEL###
         Cookie Encryption Key Password: ###PASSWORD-FOR-COOKIE-ENCRYPTION###
         Re-enter password:              ###PASSWORD-FOR-COOKIE-ENCRYPTION###
      

From this point the variable idp.home refers to the directory: /opt/shibboleth-idp

  1. Import the JST libraries to visualize the IdP status page:
    • cd /opt/shibboleth-idp/edit-webapp/WEB-INF/lib
      
    • wget https://build.shibboleth.net/nexus/service/local/repositories/thirdparty/content/javax/servlet/jstl/1.2/jstl-1.2.jar
      
    •    cd /opt/shibboleth-idp/bin ; ./build.sh -Didp.target.dir=/opt/shibboleth-idp
      
  1. Change the owner to enable tomcat8 user to access on the following directories:
    • chown -R tomcat8 /opt/shibboleth-idp/logs/
      
    • chown -R tomcat8 /opt/shibboleth-idp/metadata/
      
    • chown -R tomcat8 /opt/shibboleth-idp/credentials/
      
    • chown -R tomcat8 /opt/shibboleth-idp/conf/
      

Configure SSL on Apache2 with Letsencrypt

If you do this installation in Lab setup please skip to implementing https with self-signed certificates as described in step 13.

  1. Disable default apache configuration:
    • a2dissite 000-default
      

  1. Create a new configuration file as idp.conf with the following:
    • vim /etc/apache2/site-available/idp.conf
      

   <VirtualHost *:80>
     ServerName idp.YOUR-DOMAIN
     ServerAdmin admin@YOUR-DOMAIN
     DocumentRoot /var/www/html
   </VirtualHost>

Enable Apache2 modules:

  • a2enmod proxy_http ssl headers alias include negotiation
    
    Restart the Apache service:
  • service apache2 restart
    
  1. Install Letsencrypt and enable HTTPS:
  •    add-apt-repository ppa:certbot/certbot
    
  •    apt install python-certbot-apache
    
  •    certbot --apache -d idp.YOUR-DOMAIN

   Congratulations! You have successfully enabled https://idp.YOUR-DOMAIN

  1. (OPTIONAL) If you haven't follow the letsencrypt method Create a Certificate and a Key self-signed for HTTPS
    •    mkdir /root/certificates
      
    •    openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 -keyout /root/certificates/idp-key-server.key -out /root/certificates/idp-cert-server.crt -nodes -days 1095
      
      If you purchased SSL certificates from a Public CA, move the Certificate and the Key file for HTTPS server to /root/certificates:

  •    mv /location-to-crts/idp-cert-server.crt /root/certificates
    
  •    mv /location-to-crts/idp-key-server.key /root/certificates
    
  •    mv /location-to-crts/PublicCA.crt /root/certificates
    

Then,

  •    chmod 400 /root/certificates/idp-key-server.key
    
  •    chmod 644 /root/certificates/idp-cert-server.crt
    
  •    chmod 644 /root/certificates/PublicCA.crt
    

Create the file /etc/apache2/sites-available/idp-ssl.conf as follows:

   <IfModule mod_ssl.c>
      SSLStaplingCache        shmcb:/var/run/ocsp(128000)

Enable proxy_http, SSL and headers Apache2 modules:

  •    a2enmod proxy_http ssl headers alias include negotiation
    
  •    a2ensite idp-ssl.conf
    
  •    service apache2 restart
    

Configure Apache2 to redirect all on HTTPS:

  •    vim /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf
    

   <VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName "idp.YOUR-DOMAIN"
        Redirect "/" "https://idp.YOUR-DOMAIN/"
   </VirtualHost>

Configure Apache Tomcat 8

  1. Modify server.xml:
    •    vim /etc/tomcat8/server.xml
      

Comment out the Connector 8080 (HTTP):

     <!-- A "Connector" represents an endpoint by which requests are received
          and responses are returned. Documentation at :
          Java HTTP Connector: /docs/config/http.html (blocking & non-blocking)
          Java AJP  Connector: /docs/config/ajp.html
          APR (HTTP/AJP) Connector: /docs/apr.html
          Define a non-SSL/TLS HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8080
     -->
     <!--
     <Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
                connectionTimeout="20000"
                URIEncoding="UTF-8"
                redirectPort="8443" />
     -->

Enable the Connector 8009 (AJP):

`apache <!-- Define an AJP 1.3 Connector on port 8009 --> <Connector port="8009" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="443" address="127.0.0.1" enableLookups="false" tomcatAuthentication="false"/> `

Check the integrity of XML files just edited with: xmlwf -e UTF-8 /etc/tomcat8/server.xml

  1. Create and change the file idp.xml: *
       sudo vim /etc/tomcat8/Catalina/localhost/idp.xml```
    
         ```apache
         <Context docBase="/opt/shibboleth-idp/war/idp.war"
                  privileged="true"
                  antiResourceLocking="false"
                  swallowOutput="true"/>
         ```
    
    16. Create the Apache2 configuration file for IdP:
     *
       {{{
       vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/idp-proxy.conf```
      
         ```apache
         <IfModule mod_proxy.c>
           ProxyPreserveHost On
           RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto "https"
    
           <Proxy ajp://localhost:8009>
             Require all granted
           </Proxy>
    
           ProxyPass /idp ajp://localhost:8009/idp retry=5
           ProxyPassReverse /idp ajp://localhost:8009/idp retry=5
         </IfModule>
         ```
    
    17. Enable **proxy_ajp** apache2 module and the new IdP site:
     *
       {{{
       a2enmod proxy_ajp```
     *
       {{{
       a2ensite idp-proxy.conf```
     *
       {{{
       service apache2 restart```
      
    18. Modify **context.xml** to prevent error of *lack of persistence of the session objects* created by the IdP :
     *
       {{{
       vim /etc/tomcat8/context.xml```
    
         and remove the comment from:
    
         ```<Manager pathname="" />```
        
    19. Restart Tomcat8:
     *
       {{{
       service tomcat8 restart```
    
    20. Verify if the IdP works by opening this page on your browser:
     *
       {{{
       https://idp.YOUR-DOMAIN/idp/shibboleth``` (you should see the IdP metadata)
    
    
    
    ### Speed up Tomcat 8 startup
    
      
    21. Find out the JARs that can be skipped from the scanning:
      *
       {{{
       cd /opt/shibboleth-idp/```
      *
       {{{
       ls webapp/WEB-INF/lib | awk '{print $1",\\"}'```
      
        Insert the output list into ```/etc/tomcat8/catalina.properties``` at the tail of  ```tomcat.util.scan.StandardJarScanFilter.jarsToSkip```
        Make sure about the  ```,\``` symbols
       
        Restart Tomcat 8:
      *
       {{{
       service tomcat8 restart```
      
    
    ### Configure Shibboleth Identity Provider v3.2.1 to release the persistent-id (Stored mode)
    
    
    22. Test IdP by opening a terminal and running these commands:
     *
       {{{
       cd /opt/shibboleth-idp/bin```
     *
       {{{
       ./status.sh``` (You should see some informations about the IdP installed)
    
    23. Install **MySQL Connector Java** and other useful libraries used by Tomcat for MySQL DB (if you don't have them already):
     *
       {{{
       apt-get install mysql-server libmysql-java libcommons-dbcp-java libcommons-pool-java```
     *
       {{{
       cd /usr/share/tomcat8/lib/```
     *
       {{{
       ln -s ../../java/mysql.jar mysql-connector-java.jar```
     *
       {{{
       ln -s ../../java/commons-pool.jar commons-pool.jar```
     *
       {{{
       ln -s ../../java/commons-dbcp.jar commons-dbcp.jar```
     *
       {{{
       ln -s ../../java/tomcat-jbcp.jar tomcat-jbcp.jar```
       Ignore if you get errors for some of the ```ln``` commands as the files might be already there.
    
    24. Rebuild the **idp.war** of Shibboleth with the new libraries:
     *
       {{{
       cd /opt/shibboleth-idp/ ; ./bin/build.sh```
       You may need to press enter on `Installation Directory: [/opt/shibboleth-idp]`
    
    25. Create and prepare the "**shibboleth**" MySQL DB to host the values of the several **persistent-id** and **StorageRecords** MySQL DB to host other useful information about user consent:
    
        * `mysql_secure_installation`
    
    
    ```
    Securing the MySQL server deployment.
    
    Connecting to MySQL using a blank password.
    
    VALIDATE PASSWORD PLUGIN can be used to test passwords
    and improve security. It checks the strength of password
    and allows the users to set only those passwords which are
    secure enough. Would you like to setup VALIDATE PASSWORD plugin?
    
    Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No: y
    
    There are three levels of password validation policy:
    
    LOW    Length >= 8
    MEDIUM Length >= 8, numeric, mixed case, and special characters
    STRONG Length >= 8, numeric, mixed case, special characters and dictionary file
    
    Please enter 0 = LOW, 1 = MEDIUM and 2 = STRONG: 1
    Please set the password for root here.
    
    New password:
    
    Re-enter new password:
    
    Estimated strength of the password: 50
    Do you wish to continue with the password provided?(Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y
    By default, a MySQL installation has an anonymous user,
    allowing anyone to log into MySQL without having to have
    a user account created for them. This is intended only for
    testing, and to make the installation go a bit smoother.
    You should remove them before moving into a production
    environment.
    
    Remove anonymous users? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y
    Success.
    
    Normally, root should only be allowed to connect from
    'localhost'. This ensures that someone cannot guess at
    the root password from the network.
    
    Disallow root login remotely? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y
    Success.
    
    By default, MySQL comes with a database named 'test' that
    anyone can access. This is also intended only for testing,
    and should be removed before moving into a production
    environment.
    
    
    Remove test database and access to it? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y
     - Dropping test database...
    Success.
    
     - Removing privileges on test database...
    Success.
    
    Reloading the privilege tables will ensure that all changes
    made so far will take effect immediately.
    
    Reload privilege tables now? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y
    Success.
    
    All done!

               * the baseDN ==> ```ou=people, dc=example,dc=org``` (branch containing the registered users)
               * the bindDN ==> ```cn=admin,dc=example,dc=org``` (distinguished name for the user that can made queries on the LDAP)
    
    
    29. Enrich IDP logs with the authentication error occurred on LDAP:
     *
       {{{

         <!-- Logs on LDAP user authentication -->
         <logger name="org.ldaptive.auth.Authenticator" level="INFO" />
         ```
    
    30. Build the **attribute-resolver.xml** to define which attributes your IdP can manage. Here you can find the **attribute-resolver-v1-LEARN.xml** provided by LEARN:
        * Download the attribute resolver provided by LEARN:
          ```wget https://fr-training.ac.lk/attribute-resolver-v1-LEARN.xml -O /opt/shibboleth-idp/conf/attribute-resolver-v1-LEARN.xml```
    
        * Modify ```services.xml``` file:
          ```vim /opt/shibboleth-idp/conf/services.xml```
    
          ```xml
          <value>%{idp.home}/conf/attribute-resolver.xml</value>
          ```
    
          must become:
    
          ```xml
          <value>%{idp.home}/conf/attribute-resolver-v1-LEARN.xml</value>
          ```
    
        * Configure the LDAP Data Connector to be compliant to the values put on ```ldap.properties```. (See above suggestions)
    
        * Restart Tomcat8: 
          ```service tomcat8 restart```
    
    31. Enable the SAML2 support by changing the ```idp-metadata.xml``` and disabling the SAML v1.x deprecated support:
      *
