Установка Confluence WIki на Debian 5 Lenny

Что это: http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/

Вот официальная инструкция по установке: http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Confluence+Installation+Guide

Ставить будем в режиме EAR/WAR + Tomcat. Для начала ставим Tomcat: http://phpsuxx.blogspot.com/2010/11/apache-tomcat-55-debian-5-lenny.html

Следом поставим MySQL http://phpsuxx.blogspot.com/2009/12/mysql-debian5-lenny.html и создадим в ней пользователя и базу confluence с неким паролем.

Обращаю внимание, что MySQL нужно переконфигурировать следующим образом (источник):

vi /etc/mysql/my.cnf

И в блок [mysqld] добавить строку:

default-character-set=utf8

И применить изменения:

/etc/init.d/mysql restart

После этого нужно затюнить Tomcat, иначе настройки безопасности не дадут confluence запуститься:

vi /etc/default/tomcat5.5

И в самом низу добавляем:

TOMCAT5_SECURITY=no

Если же забыть это сделать, то в логах получим такой вот ужас и неработающий confluence:

Далее увеличиваем размер используемой памяти с 128 стандартных мегабайт до гигабайта (или как минимум 256 мегабайт):

vi /etc/default/tomcat5.5

JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -Xmx1024M -XX:MaxPermSize=192m"

Если же оставить стандартные 128, то confluence будет стопорится через раз с ошибкой "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space". Аналогично (офдокументация) с XX:MaxPermSize, у меня без указания явного выдавалась ошибка "jsvc.exec[27023]: Exception in thread "http-8180-Processor25" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space".

Теперь нужно скачать само приложение в формате EAR/WAR, открываем страницу http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/ConfluenceDownloadCenter.jspa, там выбираем Linux и щелкаем "Show all", из всего появившегося многообразия нам требуется "Confluence 3.4.1 - EAR/WAR (TAR.GZ Archive)", в данный момент прямая ссылка такая:

http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/downloads/binary/confluence-3.4.5.tar.gz

Скачиваем:

mkdir /opt/confluence_distrib
cd /opt/confluence_distrib
wget http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/downloads/binary/confluence-3.4.5.tar.gz
tar -xf confluence-3.4.5.tar.gz
cd confluence-3.4.5

Далее переходим к конфигурации:

vi /opt/confluence_distrib/confluence-3.4.5/confluence/WEB-INF/classes/confluence-init.properties

И добавляем там в самый низ:

confluence.home=/opt/confluence/

В этой папке confluence будет хранить все свои данные, не нужно указывать в ее качестве папку с дистрибутивом. Создаем ее:

mkdir /opt/confluence

Даем tomcat`у права на запись в нее:

chown tomcat55:root /opt/confluence

Теперь confluence нужно подключить к Tomcat, открываем конфиг:

vi /etc/tomcat5.5/Catalina/localhost/confluence.xml

И добавляем там следующее:

<Context path="/confluence" docBase="/opt/confluence_distrib/confluence-3.4.5/confluence" debug="0" reloadable="true">
</Context>

Если же Вы хотите, чтобы wiki была доступа по /, то прочтите следующее:

To run Confluence without a context path, change the path in the Context tag to an empty string (""). If not using a context path, your config will need to be saved as ROOT.xml rather than confluence.xml.

In Tomcat, a context path name follows the name of its xml file (except for ROOT.xml where no context path is used. Hence if you wish to change the context path to a different name, change both the context path and the name of the xml file. eg. "/wiki" context path should be saved in file wiki.xml.

То есть, если хотим, чтобы Confluence был доступен по /, то открываем файл:

vi /etc/tomcat5.5/Catalina/localhost/ROOT.xml

И добавляем в него:

<Context path="" docBase="/opt/confluence_distrib/confluence-3.4.5/confluence" debug="0" reloadable="true">
</Context>

Но при этом отвалится "Browse" - "Confluence Admin", это происходит из-за конфликта URL "/admin" админ-интерфейса Confluence c админкой TomCat:

HTTP Status 404 - /admin/console.action
type Status report
message /admin/console.action
description The requested resource (/admin/console.action) is not available.
Apache Tomcat/5.5

Пофиксить это можно отключением admin-интерфейса Tomcat:

mv /etc/tomcat5.5/Catalina/localhost/admin.xml /etc/tomcat5.5/Catalina/localhost/admin.old
/etc/init.d/tomcat5.5 restart

Открываем отладочный лог Tomcat:

tail -f /var/log/daemon.log

Перезапускаем Tomcat для применения настроек:

/etc/init.d/tomcat5.5 restart

Все, теперь заходим по адресу:

http://xx.xx.xx.xx:8180/confluence/

И там нас приветствует инсталлятор confluence и готовимся ввести регистрационные ключи. Далее выбираем "Production Install", External Database -> MySQL, далее выбираем тип соединения "Direct JDBC Connection". У нас язык русский, так что нам грозит использование UTF8, не забываем об этом при конфигурировании СУБД (также вписываем данные от ранее созданной базы):

Driver Class Name:
com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

Database URL:
jdbc:mysql://localhost/confluence?autoReconnect=true&sessionVariables=storage_engine%3DInnoDB&useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=utf8

После этого начинаем загрузку базы, далее выбираем "Example Site", чтобы забить вики тестовым контентом. Далее вписываем свои данные и начинаем разбираться во всей этой байде :)

Далее нужно немного разобраться с настройками. Указываем доменное имя: Browse, Confluence Admin, General Configuration, Edit и в поле "Server Base Url" вписываем доменное имя нашего сервера вместо IP.

Настройка почты. Browse, Confluence Admin, General Configuration, Mail Servers, Add a new SMTP mail server, SMTP Host Address: 127.0.0.1, from wiki@yourdomain.ru, Create.
