OpenShift Origin
In this tutorial we’ll configure the OpenShift Origin Web Console. It has been written on Ruby and will allow access to users for create applications, offering the available application cartridges.
So let’s go…
Configuring web console
First wee need to install the package
yum install -y openshift-origin-console
After that, we’ll configure authentication. In the last post we configured access to broker API (the admin-console), but now we’ll configure the web console, the public access for users.
Same as admin-console, let’s configure BASIC authentication mechanism,
We must generate some random bits for the session security and we’ll do it in the file /etc/openshift/console.conf
echo "SESSION_SECRET=\"$(openssl rand -base64 64|tr -d \"\\n\")\"">> /etc/openshift/console.conf
Now let’s copy the configuration file authentication to work on.
cp /var/www/openshift/console/httpd/conf.d/openshift-origin-auth-remote-user-basic.conf{.sample,}
Ruby and their “gems”
We’ll verify that Ruby can resolve the needed dependencies.
cd /var/www/openshift/console bundle --local rake assets:precompile chown -R apache:apache Gemfile.lock tmp
The command bundle –local must show something like
Your bundle is complete! Use `bundle show [gemname]` to see where a bundled gem is installed.
If yes, we can continue, else you need to review previous posts to verify you has installed all packages.
SELinux
The web console also requires a SELinux configuration, so we must enable the booleans and the contexts.
setsebool -P httpd_unified=on setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect=on setsebool -P httpd_can_network_relay=on setsebool -P httpd_run_stickshift=on setsebool -P named_write_master_zones=on setsebool -P allow_ypbind=on setsebool -P httpd_verify_dns=on setsebool -P httpd_enable_homedirs=on setsebool -P httpd_execmem=on setsebool -P httpd_read_user_content=on semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_log_t '/var/log/openshift/console(/.*)?' semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_log_t '/var/log/openshift/console/httpd(/.*)?' semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_var_run_t '/var/www/openshift/console/httpd/run(/.*)?' fixfiles -R rubygem-passenger restore fixfiles -R mod_passenger restore restorecon -RFvv /var/run restorecon -RFvv /opt restorecon -RFvv /var/log/openshift/console restorecon -RFvv /var/www/openshift/console
Enabling services
It’s turn to start and enable the web console service for boot
systemctl start openshift-console.service
systemctl enable openshift-console.serviceNow you can access http://broker.dmartin.es , but can not create applications yet because we haven't configured the node. But be patient, in the next post we will configure it.
See you soon.
