Welcome to the Setup Wizard

Useful Information

Access the URL http://localhost:8095/console or http://localhost:8095/crowd/console to being the setup wizard.

When accessing the Crowd administration console for the first time, the server will require you to configure the application with a set of default values. All of these values can be adjusted after completing the installation.

Licensing

Crowd licensing is limited by the number of applications that are able to communicate with the security server. Evaluation licenses may be obtained from the Atlassian website.

Options

This part of the setup process controls the general options of the Crowd security server.

  • Deployment Title: - This attribute specifies a unique name for the deployment that is sometimes used when sending email notifications.
  • Domain: - Used when setting authentication information in a browser. If this attribute is not the correct domain single sign on will not work when switching between applications.
  • Token Seed: - This attribute is a unique deployment key that is used when generating tokens for an authenticated client.

Mail Server

The security server will send notices to users during special events such as when a password is reset. Enter in the details of your mail server with a username and password if required.

Directory Server

To access the administration console, a default directory needs to be configured. A default administrator or administration group will be assigned to access the web-console. Specific information about configuring directory servers is discussed in the 2.3 - Directory Manager section.

Internal directories use the Crowd database to store user, group and role information. The internal directory information is stored locally to the configured database server.

Default Administrator

Default administrator and group information will be created, granting the installer access to the administration console. An unlimited number of internal directories may be configured from the administration console.

Demo Application

An option to auto-configure the demo application server is available during the setup to assist you with quickly setting up and configuring the identity server. The demo application highlights best practices when using the Crowd framework. The Crowd download archive contains the entire source for the demo application, which can be used as an example when integrating your web applications.

Setup Complete

You are now ready to use the Crowd security server.
