Using Apache

⚠️ This page documents DSpace v5 and is kept for reference only. For current web server setup, see Nginx + Shibboleth.

Configure apache to load mod_shibd and start shibd.

• There are example configs in $SHIB_HOME/etc/shibboleth/, these include apache config and init.d/systemd scripts

• in server config or virtual host: UseCanonicalName On, set ServerName

• ensure that https can be used and test https://localhost/Shibboleth.sso/Status

  • basically if you install mod_ssl and include the ssl.conf it should work (the certificate is automatically created)

You might need to modify /etc/apache2/envvars

#Don't forget to set SHIB_HOME
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${SHIB_HOME}/lib
