Install EJBCA

To start EJBCA, run the below listed commands in the EJBCA home directory. Make sure that JBoss is not running when you run below commands.

# cd $EJBCA_HOME  
# ant clean  
# ant bootstrap  

Once the bootstrapping process is completed, proceed with starting the JBoss application server.

# cd $JBOSS_HOME/bin  
# chmod +x run.sh  
# ./run.sh  

While JBoss is running, change the current directory back to the home directory of EJBCA. After switching back to the EJBCA home directory, start the installation by running below commands.

# cd $EJBCA_HOME  
# ant install  

When the BUILD SUCCESSFUL message appears, shutdown JBoss and move to the deployment of EJBCA.

# $JBOSS_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh -s  
# cd $EJBCA_HOME  
# ant deploy  

After deployment, restarting the JBoss server and EJBCA’s Web Interface is now accessible through http://localhost:8080/ejbca. To be able to access EJBCA’s administrator interface, one needs to import the superadmin.p12 certificate which is generated within the p12 installation directory of EJBCA.
