Source: helloitsliam.com,support.citrix.com, simplesamlphp.org, citrix.com
- Prerequisites:
Ubuntu Server - VM or Physical box Internet connectivity
- Update Ubuntu
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade
- Install PHP, Apache2 & related libraries:
sudo apt-get install php7.0 apache2 php7.0-mcrypt php7.0-ldap php7.0-mysql libapache2-mod-php7.0 php-xml
- Installing SimpleSAMLphp binaries:
cd /var sudo wget https://github.com/simplesamlphp/simplesamlphp/releases/download/v1.14.12/simplesamlphp-1.14.12.tar.gz sudo tar zxf simplesamlphp-1.14.12.tar.gz cd simplesamlphp-1.14.12/ sudo mv simplesamlphp-1.14.12 simplesamlphp sudo rm -f simplesamlphp-1.14.12.tar.gz cd simplesamlphp/
- Configuring SimpleSAML php:
sudo nano /var/simplesamlphp/config/config.php sudo nano /var/simplesamlphp/config/authsources.php sudo nano /var/simplesamlphp/metadata/saml20-idp-hosted.php sudo nano /var/simplesamlphp/metadata/saml20-sp-remote.php
- Pointing Apache to SimpleSAMLphp
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf
- Now check if application is accessible over HTTP:
http://<ip-address-of-server>/simplesamlphp
- Enabling Secure (read SSL) access:
cd /etc/apache2/ sudo mkdir ssl
sudo openssl genrsa -des3 -out Certificate.key 4096 sudo openssl rsa -in Certificate.key -out Certificate.pem sudo openssl req -new -key Certificate.key -out Certificate.csr sudo openssl x509 -req -days 9999 -in Certificate.csr -signkey Certificate.key -out Certificate.crt
sudo a2enmod ssl sudo service apache2 restart
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf sudo a2ensite ssl sudo a2enmod ssl sudo service apache2 restart
sudo phpenmod mcrypt sudo service apache2 restart
- Now the page should be available over https:
https://<ip-address-of-server>/simplesamlphp
