Running pubman coreservice fedora postgres on one machine

This page documents the configuration setup used to run the whole pubman stack on one virtual machine (vm34) while the original three servers were being upgraded in November 2011.

Most changes consisted of changing port-numbers to avoid conflict, but in addition, changes were necessary to the apache server, and the side-by-side location of two jboss servers.

Changes in Fedora
here the diff output from the main fedora configuration file. The Fedora ports were moved from 8082, 8005, 8082 to 10082, 10005, 10443 to avoid conflict with the two co-resident jbosses.

In addition, the fedora artefacts had to be reachable via the same path (/opt/fedora/data) as on the original system, to maintain consistency with the paths to the objects in the postgresql DB. This was achieved via a symbolic link

Changes in PostgreSQL
All changes in PostgreSQL configuration related to the ip-address / hostname that the server was running on. No other changes were made to server configuration.

Merging of databases
The content of the large databases was taken (via rsync) directly from srv01). In addition, pubman uses two further pgsql databases on srv03, cone and pubman-import.

The content of these databases was dumped on srv03, for example with:

pg_dump --create --inserts --encoding=UTF-8 -f cone.sql cone

then transferred, loaded with

psql -f cone.sql

Changes in Coreservice
since both coreservice and pubman run in jboss, on the same machine, the two instances had to run side-by-side without any conflict. This involved
 * 1) installing both instances alongside the normal "default" under $JBOSS_HOME/server
 * 2) resolving any port conflicts
 * 3) changing the startup scripts to start the required server instance

running instances side-by-side
# ls /data/jboss-4.2.2.GA/server all coreservice  default  minimal  pubman

resolving port conflicts
for the jboss-specific files there is adequate documentation at the JBoss Community site ConfigurePorts

Changes in Pubman
Pubman configuration was intentionally left as near to the original as possible. The changes to pubman.properties were necessary to allow the apache2 server configuration on newhost that serve both pubmanhost and coreservicehost on port 80 to distinguish http requests for coreservice from those for pubman
