YouTrack v6.x on CentOS v7.0 as a WAR install
Note: Jetbrains now support '.jar' and '.zip' distributions - '.war' distributions are not supported.
Install JetBrains YouTrack on a CentOS 7.0 VM. Use the distribution OpenJDK and Tomcat v7.x to host YouTrack v6.x.
Prerequisites:
- a minimal CentOS 7.x VM installation
- 1 GB RAM
- disk capacity for the 'youtrack' (tomcat) user to store the database
Install
Install tomcat, which will pull in the openjdk.
# yum install tomcat
Storage
The YouTrack will server will store it's data in the home directory of the identity it runs under. Since it is running in the tomcat server this will be in the '/usr/share/tomcat' directory.
Add an entry to /etc/fstab to mount the filesystem in the ~tomcat directory. Note: The maximum length of the ext4 label is truncated at 16 characters.
LABEL=/usr/share/tomca /usr/share/tomcat ext4 defaults 0 0
Format the device used for the data. Copy the previous contents of the tomcat directory onto the new device and mount it (before tomcat is started)
# mkfs.ext4 /dev/xvdc1 -L '/usr/share/tomcat' # mkdir /tmp/tc # mount /dev/xvdc1 /tmp/tc # mv -v /usr/share/tomcat/* /tmp/tc/ # umount /tmp/tc # mount -a
Youtrack
Download and copy the distribution WAR to /usr/share/tomcat/webapps as the root application.
# mkdir /usr/share/tomcat/teamsysdata # chown tomcat.tomcat /usr/share/tomcat/teamsysdata # mv youtrack-eap60-10923.war /usr/share/tomcat/webapps/ROOT.war
Firewall
Allow connections via ipv4 and ipv6
- in to port 8080 from the Nginx reverse proxy
- out to xmpp-client on port 5222
-A tcpIn -p tcp -m tcp --dport 8080 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW -j ACCEPT -A tcpOut -p tcp -m tcp --dport 5222 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW -j ACCEPT
Start
# systemctl enable tomcat.service # systemctl start tomcat.service
The youtrack server startup can be monitored from the log file
# tail -f /var/log/tomcat/youtrack.log
