[[_server_installation]]
= Installation
= Installation and Configuration of Keycloak Server
== Installation
Keycloak Server has three downloadable distributions.
To run the Keycloak server you need to have Java 8 already installed.
* keycloak-.[zip|tar.gz]
* keycloak-overlay-.[zip|tar.gz]
* keycloak-demo-.[zip|tar.gz]
[[_server_install]]
=== Install Standalone Server
For production and for non-JavaEE developers we recommend using the standalone Keycloak server.
All you need to do is to download `keycloak-.zip` or `keycloak-.tar.gz`, unpackage and start to have a Keycloak server up and running.
To install first download either the zip or tar.gz and extract.
Then start by running either:
[source]
----
keycloak-/bin/standalone.sh
----
or:
[source]
----
keycloak-/bin/standalone.bat
----
[[_overlay_install]]
=== Install on existing WildFly or JBoss EAP
Keycloak can be installed into an existing installations of WildFly or JBoss EAP . To do this download `keycloak-overlay-.zip` or `keycloak-overlay-.tar.gz`.
Once downloaded extract into the root directory of your installation.
To add Keycloak to existing standalone.xml server config run:
[source]
----
bin/jboss-cli.sh --file=bin/keycloak-install.cli
----
To add Keycloak to existing standalone-ha.xml server config run:
[source]
----
bin/jboss-cli.sh --file=bin/keycloak-install-ha.cli
----
If you want to add Keycloak to a different server config edit `keycloak-install.cli` or `keycloak-install-ha.cli` and change the name of the server config.
=== Install Development Bundle
The demo bundle contains everything you need to get started with Keycloak including documentation and examples.
To install it first download `keycloak-demo-.zip` or `keycloak-demo-.tar.gz`.
Once downloaded extract it inside `keycloak-demo-` you'll find `keycloak` which contains a full WildFly server with Keycloak Server and Adapters included.
You'll also find `docs` and `examples` which contains everything you need to get started developing applications that use Keycloak.
To start WildFly with Keycloak run:
[source]
----
keycloak-/bin/standalone.sh
----
or:
[source]
----
keycloak-/bin/standalone.bat
----
== Configuring the Server
Although the Keycloak Server is designed to run out of the box, there's some things you'll need to configure before you go into production.
Specifically:
* Configuring Keycloak to use a production database
* Setting up SSL/HTTPS
* Enforcing HTTPS connections
=== Admin User
To access the admin console to configure Keycloak you need an account to login.
There is no built in user, instead you have to first create an admin account.
This can done either by opening http://localhost:8080/auth (creating a user through the browser can only be done through localhost) or you can use the add-user script from the command-line.
The `add-user` script creates a temporary file with the details of the user, which are imported at startup.
To add a user with this script run:
[source]
----
bin/add-user.[sh|bat] -r master -u <username> -p <password>
----
Then restart the server.
For `keycloak-overlay`, please make sure to use:
[source]
----
bin/add-user-keycloak.[sh|bat] -r master -u <username> -p <password>
----
=== Relational Database Configuration
You might want to use a better relational database for Keycloak like PostgreSQL or MySQL.
You might also want to tweak the configuration settings of the datasource.
Please see the https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/WFLY8/DataSource+configuration[Wildfly] documentation on how to do this.
Keycloak runs on a Hibernate/JPA backend which is configured in the `standalone/configuration/keycloak-server.json`.
By default the setting is like this:
[source]
----
"connectionsJpa": {
"default": {
"dataSource": "java:jboss/datasources/KeycloakDS",
"databaseSchema": "update"
}
},
----
Possible configuration options are:
dataSource::
JNDI name of the dataSource
jta::
boolean property to specify if datasource is JTA capable
driverDialect::
Value of Hibernate dialect.
In most cases you don't need to specify this property as dialect will be autodetected by Hibernate.
databaseSchema::
Specify if schema should be updated or validated.
Valid values are "update" and "validate" ("update is default).
showSql::
Specify whether Hibernate should show all SQL commands in the console (false by default)
formatSql::
Specify whether Hibernate should format SQL commands (true by default)
globalStatsInterval::
Will log global statistics from Hibernate about executed DB queries and other things.
Statistics are always reported to server log at specified interval (in seconds) and are cleared after each report.
schema::
Specify the database schema to use
===== Tested databases
Here is list of RDBMS databases and corresponding JDBC drivers, which were tested with Keycloak.
Note that Hibernate dialect is usually set automatically according to your database, but you have possibility to override if default dialect doesn't work correctly.
You can setup dialect by adding property `driverDialect` to the `keycloak-server.json` into `connectionsJpa` section (see above).

=== MongoDB based model
Keycloak provides http://www.mongodb.com[MongoDB] based model implementation, which means that your identity data will be saved in MongoDB instead of traditional RDBMS.
To configure Keycloak to use Mongo open `standalone/configuration/keycloak-server.json` in your favourite editor, then change:
[source]
----
"eventsStore": {
"provider": "jpa",
"jpa": {
"exclude-events": [ "REFRESH_TOKEN" ]
}
},
"realm": {
"provider": "jpa"
},
"user": {
"provider": "${keycloak.user.provider:jpa}"
},
----
to:
[source]
----
"eventsStore": {
"provider": "mongo",
"mongo": {
"exclude-events": [ "REFRESH_TOKEN" ]
}
},
"realm": {
"provider": "mongo"
},
"user": {
"provider": "mongo"
},
----
And at the end of the file add the snippet like this where you can configure details about your Mongo database:
[source]
----
"connectionsMongo": {
"default": {
"host": "127.0.0.1",
"port": "27017",
"db": "keycloak",
"connectionsPerHost": 100,
"databaseSchema": "update"
}
}
----
All configuration options are optional.
Default values for host and port are localhost and 27017.
Default name of database is `keycloak` . You can also specify properties `user` and `password` if you want authenticate against your MongoDB.
If user and password are not specified, Keycloak will connect unauthenticated to your MongoDB.
Finally there is set of optional configuration options, which can be used to specify connection-pooling capabilities of Mongo client.
Supported int options are: `connectionsPerHost`, `threadsAllowedToBlockForConnectionMultiplier`, `maxWaitTime`, `connectTimeout` `socketTimeout`.
Supported boolean options are: `socketKeepAlive`, `autoConnectRetry`.
Supported long option is `maxAutoConnectRetryTime`.
See http://api.mongodb.org/java/2.11.4/com/mongodb/MongoClientOptions.html[Mongo documentation] for details about those options and their default values.
Alternatively, you can configure MongoDB using a MongoDB http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/connection-string/[connection URI].
In this case, you define all information concerning the connection and authentication within the URI, as described in the MongoDB documentation.
Please note that the database specified within the URI is only used for authentication.
To change the database used by keycloak you have to set `db` property as before.
Therefore, a configuration like the following
[source]
----
"connectionsMongo": {
"default": {
"uri": "mongodb://user:password@127.0.0.1/authentication",
"db": "keycloak"
}
}
----
will authenticate the user against the authentication database, but store all keycloak related data in the keycloak database.
==== MongoDB Replica Sets
In order to use a mongo replica set for Keycloak, one has to use URI based configuration, which supports the definition of replica sets out of the box: `mongodb://host1:27017,host2:27017,host3:27017/`.
=== Outgoing Server HTTP Requests
Keycloak server needs to invoke on remote HTTP endpoints to do things like backchannel logouts and other management functions.
Keycloak maintains a HTTP client connection pool which has various configuration settings you can specify before boot time.
This is configured in the `standalone/configuration/keycloak-server.json`.
By default the setting is like this:
[source]
----
"connectionsHttpClient": {
"default": {}
},
----
Possible configuration options are:
establish-connection-timeout-millis::
Timeout for establishing a socket connection.
socket-timeout-millis::
If an outgoing request does not receive data for this amount of time, timeout the connection.
connection-pool-size::
How many connections can be in the pool (128 by default).
max-pooled-per-route::
How many connections can be pooled per host (64 by default).
connection-ttl-millis::
Maximum connection time to live in milliseconds.
Not set by default.
max-connection-idle-time-millis::
Maximum time the connection might stay idle in the connection pool (900 seconds by default). Will start background cleaner thread of Apache HTTP client.
Set to -1 to disable this checking and the background thread.
disable-cookies::
`true` by default.
When set to true, this will disable any cookie caching.
client-keystore::
This is the file path to a Java keystore file.
This keystore contains client certificate for two-way SSL.
client-keystore-password::
Password for the client keystore.
This is _REQUIRED_ if `client-keystore` is set.
client-key-password::
_Not supported yet, but we will support in future versions. Password for the client's key.
This is _REQUIRED_ if `client-keystore` is set.
[[_truststore]]
=== Securing Outgoing Server HTTP Requests
When Keycloak connects out to remote HTTP endpoints over secure https connection, it has to validate the other server's certificate in order to ensure it is connecting to a trusted server.
That is necessary in order to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks.
How certificates are validated is configured in the `standalone/configuration/keycloak-server.json`.
By default truststore provider is not configured, and any https connections fall back to standard java truststore configuration as described in https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/security/jsse/JSSERefGuide.html[
Java's JSSE Reference Guide] - using `javax.net.ssl.trustStore system property`, otherwise `cacerts` file that comes with java is used.
Truststore is used when connecting securely to identity brokers, LDAP identity providers, when sending emails, and for backchannel communication with client applications.
Some of these facilities may - in case when no trusted certificate is found in your configured truststore - fallback to using the JSSE provided truststore.
The default JavaMail API implementation used to send out emails behaves in this way, for example.
You can add your truststore configuration by using the following template:
[source]
----
"truststore": {
"file": {
"file": "path to your .jks file containing public certificates",
"password": "password",
"hostname-verification-policy": "WILDCARD",
"disabled": false
}
}
----
Possible configuration options are:
file::
The value is the file path to a Java keystore file.
HTTPS requests need a way to verify the host of the server they are talking to.
This is what the trustore does.
The keystore contains one or more trusted host certificates or certificate authorities.
Truststore file should only contain public certificates of your secured hosts.
This is _REQUIRED_ if `disabled` is not true.
password::
Password for the truststore.
This is _REQUIRED_ if `disabled` is not true.
hostname-verification-policy::
`WILDCARD` by default.
For HTTPS requests, this verifies the hostname of the server's certificate.
`ANY` means that the hostname is not verified. `WILDCARD` Allows wildcards in subdomain names i.e.
*.foo.com. `STRICT` CN must match hostname exactly.
disabled::
If true (default value), truststore configuration will be ignored, and certificate checking will fall back to JSSE configuration as described.
If set to false, you must configure `file`, and `password` for the truststore.
You can use _keytool_ to create a new truststore file and add trusted host certificates to it:
[source]
----
$ keytool -import -alias HOSTDOMAIN -keystore truststore.jks -file host-certificate.cer
----
[[_ssl_modes]]
=== SSL/HTTPS Requirement/Modes
WARNING: Keycloak is not set up by default to handle SSL/HTTPS.
It is highly recommended that you either enable SSL on the Keycloak server itself or on a reverse proxy in front of the Keycloak server.
Keycloak can run out of the box without SSL so long as you stick to private IP addresses like localhost, 127.0.0.1, 10.0.x.x, 192.168.x.x, and 172..16.x.x.
If you try to access Keycloak from a non-IP adress you will get an error.
Keycloak has 3 SSL/HTTPS modes which you can set up in the admin console under the Settings->Login page and the `Require SSL` select box.
Each adapter config should mirror this server-side setting.
See adapter config section for more details.

If you try to access Keycloak from a non-IP adress you will get an error.
none::
Keycloak does not require SSL.
all::
Keycloak requires SSL for all IP addresses.
=== SSL/HTTPS Setup
First enable SSL on Keycloak or on a reverse proxy in front of Keycloak.
Then configure the Keycloak Server to enforce HTTPS connections.
==== Enable SSL on Keycloak
The following things need to be done
* keytool
* Enable Wildfly to use this certificate and turn on SSL/HTTPS.
===== Creating the Certificate and Java Keystore
In order to allow HTTPS connections, you need to obtain a self signed or third-party signed certificate and import it into a Java keystore before you can enable HTTPS in the web container you are deploying the Keycloak Server to.
====== Self Signed Certificate
In development, you will probably not have a third party signed certificate available to test a Keycloak deployment so you'll need to generate a self-signed on.
Generate one is very easy to do with the `keytool` utility that comes with the Java jdk.
[source]
----
$ keytool -genkey -alias localhost -keyalg RSA -keystore keycloak.jks -validity 10950
Enter keystore password: secret
Re-enter new password: secret
What is your first and last name?
[Unknown]: localhost
What is the name of your organizational unit?
[Unknown]: Keycloak
What is the name of your organization?
[Unknown]: Red Hat
What is the name of your City or Locality?
[Unknown]: Westford
What is the name of your State or Province?
[Unknown]: MA
What is the two-letter country code for this unit?
[Unknown]: US
Is CN=localhost, OU=Keycloak, O=Test, L=Westford, ST=MA, C=US correct?
[no]: yes
----
You should answer `What is your first and last name ?` question with the DNS name of the machine you're installing the server on.
For testing purposes, `localhost` should be used.
After executing this command, the `keycloak.jks` file will be generated in the same directory as you executed the `keytool` command in.
If you want a third-party signed certificate, but don't have one, you can obtain one for free at http://cacert.org[cacert.org].
You'll have to do a little set up first before doing this though.
The first thing to do is generate a Certificate Request:
[source]
----
$ keytool -certreq -alias yourdomain -keystore keycloak.jks > keycloak.careq
----
Where `yourdomain` is a DNS name for which this certificate is generated for.
Keytool generates the request:
[source]
----
-----BEGIN NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----

-----END NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
----
Send this ca request to your CA.
The CA will issue you a signed certificate and send it to you.
Before you import your new cert, you must obtain and import the root certificate of the CA.
You can download the cert from CA (ie.: root.crt) and import as follows:
[source]
----
$ keytool -import -keystore keycloak.jks -file root.crt -alias root
----
Last step is import your new CA generated certificate to your keystore:
[source]
----
$ keytool -import -alias yourdomain -keystore keycloak.jks -file your-certificate.cer
----
===== Installing the keystore to WildFly
Now that you have a Java keystore with the appropriate certificates, you need to configure your Wildfly installation to use it.
First step is to move the keystore file to a directory you can reference in configuration.
I like to put it in `standalone/configuration`.
Then you need to edit `standalone/configuration/standalone.xml` to enable SSL/HTTPS.
To the `security-realms` element add:
[source]
----
<security-realm name="UndertowRealm">
<server-identities>
<ssl>
<keystore path="keycloak.jks" relative-to="jboss.server.config.dir" keystore-password="secret" />
</ssl>
</server-identities>
</security-realm>
----
Find the element `server name="default-server"` (it's a child element of `subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:undertow:1.0"`) and add:
[source]
----
<https-listener name="https" socket-binding="https" security-realm="UndertowRealm"/>
----
Check the https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/WFLY8/Undertow+(web)+subsystem+configuration[Wildfly Undertow] documentation for more information on fine tuning the socket connections.
==== Enable SSL on a Reverse Proxy
Follow the documentation for your web server to enable SSL and configure reverse proxy for Keycloak.
It is important that you make sure the web server sets the `X-Forwarded-For` and `X-Forwarded-Proto` headers on the requests made to Keycloak.
Next you need to enable `proxy-address-forwarding` on the Keycloak http connector.
Assuming that your reverse proxy doesn't use port 8443 for SSL you also need to configure what port http traffic is redirected to.
===== Configure WildFly
. Open `standalone/configuration/standalone.xml` in your favorite editor.
. First add `proxy-address-forwarding` and `redirect-socket` to the `http-listener` element:
[source]
----
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:undertow:1.1">
...
<http-listener name="default" socket-binding="http"
proxy-address-forwarding="true" redirect-socket="proxy-https"/>
...
</subsystem>
----
Then add a new `socket-binding` element to the `socket-binding-group` element:
[source]
----
<socket-binding-group name="standard-sockets" default-interface="public"
port-offset="${jboss.socket.binding.port-offset:0}">
...
<socket-binding name="proxy-https" port="443"/>
...
</socket-binding-group>
----
Check the https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/WFLY8/Undertow+(web)+subsystem+configuration[WildFly] documentation for more information.
== Keycloak server in Domain Mode
In domain mode, you start the server with the "domain" command instead of the "standalone" command.
In this case, the Keycloak subsystem is defined in domain/configuration/domain.xml instead of standalone/configuration.standalone.xml.
Inside domain.xml, you will see more than one profile.
The Keycloak subsystem is defined for all initial profiles.
THe server is also added to server profiles.
By default two servers are started in the main-server-group which uses the full profile.
You need to make sure `domain/servers/SERVER NAME/configuration` is identical for all servers in a group.
To deploy custom providers and themes you should deploys these as modules and make sure the modules are available to all servers in the group.
See <<_providers,Providers>> and <<_themes,Themes>> sections for more information on how to do this.
== Installing Keycloak Server as Root Context
The Keycloak server can be installed as the default web application.
In doing so, the server can be referenced at `http://mydomain.com/` instead of `http://mydomain.com/auth`.
To do this, add the `default-web-module` attribute in the Undertow subystem in standalone.xml.
[source]
----
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:undertow:2.0">
<server name="default-server">
<host name="default-host" alias="localhost" default-web-module="keycloak-server.war">
<location name="/" handler="welcome-content"/>
</host>
----
`keycloak-server.war` is the runtime name of the Keycloak server application.
Note that the WAR file does not exist as a file.
If its name changes (ie. `keycloak-server.war`) in the future, find its new name from the Keycloak log entry with `runtime-name:`.
NOTE: If you have run your server before altering the root context, your database will contain references to the old /auth context. Your clients may also have incorrect references.
To fix this on the server side, you will need to export your database to json, make corrections, and then import.
Client-side `keycloak.json` files will need to be updated manually as well.
This chapter reviews what binaries you need to install to run the {{book.project.name}} Server on a specific machine.
It describes the directory structure and files of the distribution. Finally, it describes how to install {{book.project.name}}
on the cloud if you prefer that type of deployment.

* +keycloak-overlay-{{book.project.version}}.[zip|tar.gz]+
* +keycloak-demo-{{book.project.version}}.[zip|tar.gz]+
The +keycloak-{{book.project.version}}.[zip|tar.gz]+ file is the server only distribution. It contains nothing other than the scripts and binaries
to run the Keycloak Server.
The +keycloak-overlay-{{book.project.version}}.[zip|tar.gz]+ file is a Wildfly Service Pack that allows you to install Keycloak Server on top of an existing
Wildfly or JBoss EAP distribution. We suggest that you do not use this file unless you want to install on top of a JBoss EAP distribution.
The +keycloak-demo-{{book.project.version}}.[zip|tar.gz]+ contains a the server binaries, all documentation and all examples. It is preconfigured with both the
OIDC and SAML client application adapters and can deploy any of the distribution examples out of the box with no configuration. This distribution is only
recommended for those that want to test drive Keycloak.
To unpack of these files run the +unzip+ or +gunzip+ and +tar+ utilities.

= Installation and Configuration of Keycloak Server
== Installation
Keycloak Server has three downloadable distributions.
To run the Keycloak server you need to have Java 8 already installed.
* keycloak-.[zip|tar.gz]
* keycloak-overlay-.[zip|tar.gz]
* keycloak-demo-.[zip|tar.gz]
[[_server_install]]
=== Install Standalone Server
For production and for non-JavaEE developers we recommend using the standalone Keycloak server.
All you need to do is to download `keycloak-.zip` or `keycloak-.tar.gz`, unpackage and start to have a Keycloak server up and running.
To install first download either the zip or tar.gz and extract.
Then start by running either:
[source]
----
keycloak-/bin/standalone.sh
----
or:
[source]
----
keycloak-/bin/standalone.bat
----
[[_overlay_install]]
=== Install on existing WildFly or JBoss EAP
Keycloak can be installed into an existing installations of WildFly or JBoss EAP . To do this download `keycloak-overlay-.zip` or `keycloak-overlay-.tar.gz`.
Once downloaded extract into the root directory of your installation.
To add Keycloak to existing standalone.xml server config run:
[source]
----
bin/jboss-cli.sh --file=bin/keycloak-install.cli
----
To add Keycloak to existing standalone-ha.xml server config run:
[source]
----
bin/jboss-cli.sh --file=bin/keycloak-install-ha.cli
----
If you want to add Keycloak to a different server config edit `keycloak-install.cli` or `keycloak-install-ha.cli` and change the name of the server config.
=== Install Development Bundle
The demo bundle contains everything you need to get started with Keycloak including documentation and examples.
To install it first download `keycloak-demo-.zip` or `keycloak-demo-.tar.gz`.
Once downloaded extract it inside `keycloak-demo-` you'll find `keycloak` which contains a full WildFly server with Keycloak Server and Adapters included.
You'll also find `docs` and `examples` which contains everything you need to get started developing applications that use Keycloak.
To start WildFly with Keycloak run:
[source]
----
keycloak-/bin/standalone.sh
----
or:
[source]
----
keycloak-/bin/standalone.bat
----
== Configuring the Server
Although the Keycloak Server is designed to run out of the box, there's some things you'll need to configure before you go into production.
Specifically:
* Configuring Keycloak to use a production database
* Setting up SSL/HTTPS
* Enforcing HTTPS connections
=== Admin User
To access the admin console to configure Keycloak you need an account to login.
There is no built in user, instead you have to first create an admin account.
This can done either by opening http://localhost:8080/auth (creating a user through the browser can only be done through localhost) or you can use the add-user script from the command-line.
The `add-user` script creates a temporary file with the details of the user, which are imported at startup.
To add a user with this script run:
[source]
----
bin/add-user.[sh|bat] -r master -u <username> -p <password>
----
Then restart the server.
For `keycloak-overlay`, please make sure to use:
[source]
----
bin/add-user-keycloak.[sh|bat] -r master -u <username> -p <password>
----
=== Relational Database Configuration
You might want to use a better relational database for Keycloak like PostgreSQL or MySQL.
You might also want to tweak the configuration settings of the datasource.
Please see the https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/WFLY8/DataSource+configuration[Wildfly] documentation on how to do this.
Keycloak runs on a Hibernate/JPA backend which is configured in the `standalone/configuration/keycloak-server.json`.
By default the setting is like this:
[source]
----
"connectionsJpa": {
"default": {
"dataSource": "java:jboss/datasources/KeycloakDS",
"databaseSchema": "update"
}
},
----
Possible configuration options are:
dataSource::
JNDI name of the dataSource
jta::
boolean property to specify if datasource is JTA capable
driverDialect::
Value of Hibernate dialect.
In most cases you don't need to specify this property as dialect will be autodetected by Hibernate.
databaseSchema::
Specify if schema should be updated or validated.
Valid values are "update" and "validate" ("update is default).
showSql::
Specify whether Hibernate should show all SQL commands in the console (false by default)
formatSql::
Specify whether Hibernate should format SQL commands (true by default)
globalStatsInterval::
Will log global statistics from Hibernate about executed DB queries and other things.
Statistics are always reported to server log at specified interval (in seconds) and are cleared after each report.
schema::
Specify the database schema to use
===== Tested databases
Here is list of RDBMS databases and corresponding JDBC drivers, which were tested with Keycloak.
Note that Hibernate dialect is usually set automatically according to your database, but you have possibility to override if default dialect doesn't work correctly.
You can setup dialect by adding property `driverDialect` to the `keycloak-server.json` into `connectionsJpa` section (see above).

=== MongoDB based model
Keycloak provides http://www.mongodb.com[MongoDB] based model implementation, which means that your identity data will be saved in MongoDB instead of traditional RDBMS.
To configure Keycloak to use Mongo open `standalone/configuration/keycloak-server.json` in your favourite editor, then change:
[source]
----
"eventsStore": {
"provider": "jpa",
"jpa": {
"exclude-events": [ "REFRESH_TOKEN" ]
}
},
"realm": {
"provider": "jpa"
},
"user": {
"provider": "${keycloak.user.provider:jpa}"
},
----
to:
[source]
----
"eventsStore": {
"provider": "mongo",
"mongo": {
"exclude-events": [ "REFRESH_TOKEN" ]
}
},
"realm": {
"provider": "mongo"
},
"user": {
"provider": "mongo"
},
----
And at the end of the file add the snippet like this where you can configure details about your Mongo database:
[source]
----
"connectionsMongo": {
"default": {
"host": "127.0.0.1",
"port": "27017",
"db": "keycloak",
"connectionsPerHost": 100,
"databaseSchema": "update"
}
}
----
All configuration options are optional.
Default values for host and port are localhost and 27017.
Default name of database is `keycloak` . You can also specify properties `user` and `password` if you want authenticate against your MongoDB.
If user and password are not specified, Keycloak will connect unauthenticated to your MongoDB.
Finally there is set of optional configuration options, which can be used to specify connection-pooling capabilities of Mongo client.
Supported int options are: `connectionsPerHost`, `threadsAllowedToBlockForConnectionMultiplier`, `maxWaitTime`, `connectTimeout` `socketTimeout`.
Supported boolean options are: `socketKeepAlive`, `autoConnectRetry`.
Supported long option is `maxAutoConnectRetryTime`.
See http://api.mongodb.org/java/2.11.4/com/mongodb/MongoClientOptions.html[Mongo documentation] for details about those options and their default values.
Alternatively, you can configure MongoDB using a MongoDB http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/connection-string/[connection URI].
In this case, you define all information concerning the connection and authentication within the URI, as described in the MongoDB documentation.
Please note that the database specified within the URI is only used for authentication.
To change the database used by keycloak you have to set `db` property as before.
Therefore, a configuration like the following
[source]
----
"connectionsMongo": {
"default": {
"uri": "mongodb://user:password@127.0.0.1/authentication",
"db": "keycloak"
}
}
----
will authenticate the user against the authentication database, but store all keycloak related data in the keycloak database.
==== MongoDB Replica Sets
In order to use a mongo replica set for Keycloak, one has to use URI based configuration, which supports the definition of replica sets out of the box: `mongodb://host1:27017,host2:27017,host3:27017/`.
=== Outgoing Server HTTP Requests
Keycloak server needs to invoke on remote HTTP endpoints to do things like backchannel logouts and other management functions.
Keycloak maintains a HTTP client connection pool which has various configuration settings you can specify before boot time.
This is configured in the `standalone/configuration/keycloak-server.json`.
By default the setting is like this:
[source]
----
"connectionsHttpClient": {
"default": {}
},
----
Possible configuration options are:
establish-connection-timeout-millis::
Timeout for establishing a socket connection.
socket-timeout-millis::
If an outgoing request does not receive data for this amount of time, timeout the connection.
connection-pool-size::
How many connections can be in the pool (128 by default).
max-pooled-per-route::
How many connections can be pooled per host (64 by default).
connection-ttl-millis::
Maximum connection time to live in milliseconds.
Not set by default.
max-connection-idle-time-millis::
Maximum time the connection might stay idle in the connection pool (900 seconds by default). Will start background cleaner thread of Apache HTTP client.
Set to -1 to disable this checking and the background thread.
disable-cookies::
`true` by default.
When set to true, this will disable any cookie caching.
client-keystore::
This is the file path to a Java keystore file.
This keystore contains client certificate for two-way SSL.
client-keystore-password::
Password for the client keystore.
This is _REQUIRED_ if `client-keystore` is set.
client-key-password::
_Not supported yet, but we will support in future versions. Password for the client's key.
This is _REQUIRED_ if `client-keystore` is set.
[[_truststore]]
=== Securing Outgoing Server HTTP Requests
When Keycloak connects out to remote HTTP endpoints over secure https connection, it has to validate the other server's certificate in order to ensure it is connecting to a trusted server.
That is necessary in order to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks.
How certificates are validated is configured in the `standalone/configuration/keycloak-server.json`.
By default truststore provider is not configured, and any https connections fall back to standard java truststore configuration as described in https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/security/jsse/JSSERefGuide.html[
Java's JSSE Reference Guide] - using `javax.net.ssl.trustStore system property`, otherwise `cacerts` file that comes with java is used.
Truststore is used when connecting securely to identity brokers, LDAP identity providers, when sending emails, and for backchannel communication with client applications.
Some of these facilities may - in case when no trusted certificate is found in your configured truststore - fallback to using the JSSE provided truststore.
The default JavaMail API implementation used to send out emails behaves in this way, for example.
You can add your truststore configuration by using the following template:
[source]
----
"truststore": {
"file": {
"file": "path to your .jks file containing public certificates",
"password": "password",
"hostname-verification-policy": "WILDCARD",
"disabled": false
}
}
----
Possible configuration options are:
file::
The value is the file path to a Java keystore file.
HTTPS requests need a way to verify the host of the server they are talking to.
This is what the trustore does.
The keystore contains one or more trusted host certificates or certificate authorities.
Truststore file should only contain public certificates of your secured hosts.
This is _REQUIRED_ if `disabled` is not true.
password::
Password for the truststore.
This is _REQUIRED_ if `disabled` is not true.
hostname-verification-policy::
`WILDCARD` by default.
For HTTPS requests, this verifies the hostname of the server's certificate.
`ANY` means that the hostname is not verified. `WILDCARD` Allows wildcards in subdomain names i.e.
*.foo.com. `STRICT` CN must match hostname exactly.
disabled::
If true (default value), truststore configuration will be ignored, and certificate checking will fall back to JSSE configuration as described.
If set to false, you must configure `file`, and `password` for the truststore.
You can use _keytool_ to create a new truststore file and add trusted host certificates to it:
[source]
----
$ keytool -import -alias HOSTDOMAIN -keystore truststore.jks -file host-certificate.cer
----
[[_ssl_modes]]
=== SSL/HTTPS Requirement/Modes
WARNING: Keycloak is not set up by default to handle SSL/HTTPS.
It is highly recommended that you either enable SSL on the Keycloak server itself or on a reverse proxy in front of the Keycloak server.
Keycloak can run out of the box without SSL so long as you stick to private IP addresses like localhost, 127.0.0.1, 10.0.x.x, 192.168.x.x, and 172..16.x.x.
If you try to access Keycloak from a non-IP adress you will get an error.
Keycloak has 3 SSL/HTTPS modes which you can set up in the admin console under the Settings->Login page and the `Require SSL` select box.
Each adapter config should mirror this server-side setting.
See adapter config section for more details.

If you try to access Keycloak from a non-IP adress you will get an error.
none::
Keycloak does not require SSL.
all::
Keycloak requires SSL for all IP addresses.
=== SSL/HTTPS Setup
First enable SSL on Keycloak or on a reverse proxy in front of Keycloak.
Then configure the Keycloak Server to enforce HTTPS connections.
==== Enable SSL on Keycloak
The following things need to be done
* keytool
* Enable Wildfly to use this certificate and turn on SSL/HTTPS.
===== Creating the Certificate and Java Keystore
In order to allow HTTPS connections, you need to obtain a self signed or third-party signed certificate and import it into a Java keystore before you can enable HTTPS in the web container you are deploying the Keycloak Server to.
====== Self Signed Certificate
In development, you will probably not have a third party signed certificate available to test a Keycloak deployment so you'll need to generate a self-signed on.
Generate one is very easy to do with the `keytool` utility that comes with the Java jdk.
[source]
----
$ keytool -genkey -alias localhost -keyalg RSA -keystore keycloak.jks -validity 10950
Enter keystore password: secret
Re-enter new password: secret
What is your first and last name?
[Unknown]: localhost
What is the name of your organizational unit?
[Unknown]: Keycloak
What is the name of your organization?
[Unknown]: Red Hat
What is the name of your City or Locality?
[Unknown]: Westford
What is the name of your State or Province?
[Unknown]: MA
What is the two-letter country code for this unit?
[Unknown]: US
Is CN=localhost, OU=Keycloak, O=Test, L=Westford, ST=MA, C=US correct?
[no]: yes
----
You should answer `What is your first and last name ?` question with the DNS name of the machine you're installing the server on.
For testing purposes, `localhost` should be used.
After executing this command, the `keycloak.jks` file will be generated in the same directory as you executed the `keytool` command in.
If you want a third-party signed certificate, but don't have one, you can obtain one for free at http://cacert.org[cacert.org].
You'll have to do a little set up first before doing this though.
The first thing to do is generate a Certificate Request:
[source]
----
$ keytool -certreq -alias yourdomain -keystore keycloak.jks > keycloak.careq
----
Where `yourdomain` is a DNS name for which this certificate is generated for.
Keytool generates the request:
[source]
----
-----BEGIN NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----

-----END NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
----
Send this ca request to your CA.
The CA will issue you a signed certificate and send it to you.
Before you import your new cert, you must obtain and import the root certificate of the CA.
You can download the cert from CA (ie.: root.crt) and import as follows:
[source]
----
$ keytool -import -keystore keycloak.jks -file root.crt -alias root
----
Last step is import your new CA generated certificate to your keystore:
[source]
----
$ keytool -import -alias yourdomain -keystore keycloak.jks -file your-certificate.cer
----
===== Installing the keystore to WildFly
Now that you have a Java keystore with the appropriate certificates, you need to configure your Wildfly installation to use it.
First step is to move the keystore file to a directory you can reference in configuration.
I like to put it in `standalone/configuration`.
Then you need to edit `standalone/configuration/standalone.xml` to enable SSL/HTTPS.
To the `security-realms` element add:
[source]
----
<security-realm name="UndertowRealm">
<server-identities>
<ssl>
<keystore path="keycloak.jks" relative-to="jboss.server.config.dir" keystore-password="secret" />
</ssl>
</server-identities>
</security-realm>
----
Find the element `server name="default-server"` (it's a child element of `subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:undertow:1.0"`) and add:
[source]
----
<https-listener name="https" socket-binding="https" security-realm="UndertowRealm"/>
----
Check the https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/WFLY8/Undertow+(web)+subsystem+configuration[Wildfly Undertow] documentation for more information on fine tuning the socket connections.
==== Enable SSL on a Reverse Proxy
Follow the documentation for your web server to enable SSL and configure reverse proxy for Keycloak.
It is important that you make sure the web server sets the `X-Forwarded-For` and `X-Forwarded-Proto` headers on the requests made to Keycloak.
Next you need to enable `proxy-address-forwarding` on the Keycloak http connector.
Assuming that your reverse proxy doesn't use port 8443 for SSL you also need to configure what port http traffic is redirected to.
===== Configure WildFly
. Open `standalone/configuration/standalone.xml` in your favorite editor.
. First add `proxy-address-forwarding` and `redirect-socket` to the `http-listener` element:
[source]
----
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:undertow:1.1">
...
<http-listener name="default" socket-binding="http"
proxy-address-forwarding="true" redirect-socket="proxy-https"/>
...
</subsystem>
----
Then add a new `socket-binding` element to the `socket-binding-group` element:
[source]
----
<socket-binding-group name="standard-sockets" default-interface="public"
port-offset="${jboss.socket.binding.port-offset:0}">
...
<socket-binding name="proxy-https" port="443"/>
...
</socket-binding-group>
----
Check the https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/WFLY8/Undertow+(web)+subsystem+configuration[WildFly] documentation for more information.
== Keycloak server in Domain Mode
In domain mode, you start the server with the "domain" command instead of the "standalone" command.
In this case, the Keycloak subsystem is defined in domain/configuration/domain.xml instead of standalone/configuration.standalone.xml.
Inside domain.xml, you will see more than one profile.
The Keycloak subsystem is defined for all initial profiles.
THe server is also added to server profiles.
By default two servers are started in the main-server-group which uses the full profile.
You need to make sure `domain/servers/SERVER NAME/configuration` is identical for all servers in a group.
To deploy custom providers and themes you should deploys these as modules and make sure the modules are available to all servers in the group.
See <<_providers,Providers>> and <<_themes,Themes>> sections for more information on how to do this.
== Installing Keycloak Server as Root Context
The Keycloak server can be installed as the default web application.
In doing so, the server can be referenced at `http://mydomain.com/` instead of `http://mydomain.com/auth`.
To do this, add the `default-web-module` attribute in the Undertow subystem in standalone.xml.
[source]
----
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:undertow:2.0">
<server name="default-server">
<host name="default-host" alias="localhost" default-web-module="keycloak-server.war">
<location name="/" handler="welcome-content"/>
</host>
----
`keycloak-server.war` is the runtime name of the Keycloak server application.
Note that the WAR file does not exist as a file.
If its name changes (ie. `keycloak-server.war`) in the future, find its new name from the Keycloak log entry with `runtime-name:`.
NOTE: If you have run your server before altering the root context, your database will contain references to the old /auth context. Your clients may also have incorrect references.
To fix this on the server side, you will need to export your database to json, make corrections, and then import.
Client-side `keycloak.json` files will need to be updated manually as well.
