Prerequiste Downloads and setup.

Install JAVA JDK.
Install MySQL on CentOS 6.5, HOWTO Install Instructions are here.
Download SpagoBI 5.1.
Download Mysql Script from SpagoBI Website.
Download Mysql Connector.
Download Tomcat 7. (Optional - if you want to run SpagoBI on a Dedicated Tomcat Server.)

Extracting SpagoBI.

Extract All-In-One-SpagoBI-5.1-21012015.zip

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# unzip All-In-One-SpagoBI-5.1-21012015.zip

Move to /opt and create a softlink as spagobi

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# mv All-In-One-SpagoBI-5.1-21012015 /opt/
[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# ln -s  /opt/All-In-One-SpagoBI-5.1-21012015 /opt/spagobi

Setting Heap memory in setenv.sh

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# vim /opt/spagobi/bin/setenv.sh

Add below content. Depending on the Server Memory set the Xms and Xmx appropriately.

export JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS\
  -server\
  -Xms8g\
  -Xmx16g\
  -XX:MaxPermSize=512m\
  -XX:MaxNewSize=512m\
  -XX:NewSize=512m\
  -XX:SurvivorRatio=12"

Update SpagoBI `lib` with Mysql Connector.

Extract the connector.

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# tar xvzf mysql-connector-java-5.1.34.tar.gz

Copy jar to spago lib directory.

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# cp mysql-connector-java-5.1.34/mysql-connector-java-5.1.34-bin.jar \
                                                                            /opt/spagobi/lib/

NOTE : If you already have a older connector in the directory /opt/spagobi/lib/ then remove it. USE THE LATEST CONNECTOR.

Setting up Mysql Database.

Before we populated the scripts we need to create basic setup on Mysql.

Setting `spagobi` Database and `spagobi` User.

Assuming that mysql-server is installed and we have set the root password as root@123.

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# mysql -uroot -proot@123
Warning: Using a password on the command line interface can be insecure.
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 475739

Creating spagobi database.

mysql> create database spagobi;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

Creating a user spagobi with password as spagobi for spagobi database.

mysql> grant all privileges on spagobi.* to spagobi@localhost identified by 'spagobi';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

Optional - If we are running mysql in a different machine then we have give permission to the server which is trying to connect to mysql-server. Assuming that web server is 10.10.10.18 we give the permission as below.

mysql> grant all privileges on spagobi.* to spagobi@10.10.10.18 identified by 'spagobi';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

Commit and we are done.

mysql> commit;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> exit

Populating Tables for SpagoBI.

Extract script from mysql-dbscript-5.1.0_19012015.zip

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# mkdir mysql-spagobi
[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# cd mysql-spagobi
[ahmed@ahmed-server mysql-spagobi]# unzip mysql-dbscript-5.1.0_19012015.zip 
[ahmed@ahmed-server mysql-spagobi]# ls -l
total 136
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   4400 Nov 19 12:38 MySQL_create_quartz_schema.sql
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   7954 Dec  3 11:44 MySQL_create_social.sql
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 111910 Nov 19 12:38 MySQL_create.sql
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root    856 Nov 19 12:38 MySQL_drop_quartz_tables.sql
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   3821 Nov 19 12:38 MySQL_drop.sql
[ahmed@ahmed-server mysql-spagobi]#	

Now lets populate tables.

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# mysql -uspagobi -pspagobi spagobi < MySQL_create.sql
[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# mysql -uspagobi -pspagobi spagobi < MySQL_create_quartz_schema.sql
[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# mysql -uspagobi -pspagobi spagobi < MySQL_create_social.sql

Now we are ready.

SpagoBI MySQL Connection Setup.

Update `server.xml`.

/opt/spagobi/conf/server.xml

Change the GlobalNamingResources to the below tag.

<!-- server.xml -->
<GlobalNamingResources> 
	<!-- Editable user database that can also be used by UserDatabaseRealm to authenticate users--> 
	<Resource auth="Container" 
                    description="User database that can be updated and saved"

                    name="wm/SpagoWorkManager" 
                    type="commonj.work.WorkManager"/> 
                    
	<Resource auth="Container" 
                    driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" 
                    maxActive="20" maxIdle="10" maxWait="-1" 
                    name="jdbc/spagobi" password="spagobi" 
                    type="javax.sql.DataSource" 
                    url="jdbc:mysql://10.10.10.88:3306/spagobi" 
                    username="spagobi"/>  
                    
</GlobalNamingResources> 

Update `context.xml`.

/opt/spagobi/webapps/SpagoBI/META-INF/context.xml

Change the contents of the file as below.

<Context docBase="SpagoBIProject" path="/SpagoBI" privileged="true" 
                        reloadable="true" source="org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.server:SpagoBIProject">  
	<ResourceLink global="jdbc/spagobi" 
                            name="jdbc/spagobi" type="javax.sql.DataSource"/> 
	<ResourceLink global="spagobi_resource_path" 
                            name="spagobi_resource_path" type="java.lang.String"/> 
	<ResourceLink global="spagobi_sso_class" 
                            name="spagobi_sso_class" type="java.lang.String"/> 
	<ResourceLink global="spagobi_host_url" 
                            name="spagobi_host_url" type="java.lang.String"/>  
</Context> 

Update `hibernate.cfg.xml`.

/opt/spagobi/webapps/SpagoBI/WEB-INF/classes/hibernate.cfg.xml

Update the hibernate-configuration tag, leave the other tag details as it is.

<hibernate-configuration> 
	<session-factory name="HibernateSessionFactoryMySQL"> 
	<property name="hibernate.connection.datasource">java:/comp/env/jdbc/spagobi</property> 
	<property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>
	<property name="hibernate.cache.use_second_level_cache">false</property> 
	<property name="hibernate.cache.use_query_cache">false</property> 
	<!-- 
		Leave rest of the Configuration as it is.
	--> 
	</session-factory> 
</hibernate-configuration> 

Update `jbpm.hibernate.cfg.xml`.

/opt/spagobi/webapps/SpagoBI/WEB-INF/classes/jbpm.hibernate.cfg.xml

Update the hibernate-configuration tag, leave the other tag details as it is.

<hibernate-configuration> 
	<session-factory> 
		<property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>
		<property name="hibernate.connection.datasource">java:comp/env/jdbc/spagobi</property> 
		<property name="hibernate.cache.use_second_level_cache">false</property> 
		<property name="hibernate.cache.use_query_cache">false</property> 
		<!-- 
			Leave rest of the Configuration as it is.
		--> 
	</session-factory> 
</hibernate-configuration> 

Update `quartz.properties`.

/opt/spagobi/webapps/SpagoBI/WEB-INF/classes/quartz.properties

Comment below

org.quartz.jobStore.driverDelegateClass=org.quartz.impl.jdbcjobstore.HSQLDBDelegate 

Uncomment Below for Mysql.

org.quartz.jobStore.driverDelegateClass=org.quartz.impl.jdbcjobstore.StdJDBCDelegate 

Starting SpagoBI Server.

Lets go to Location and start.

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# cd /opt/spagobi/bin

Since we are not using HSQLDB and have configured MySQL, we need to start just the tomcat server.

[ahmed@ahmed-server bin]# ./startup.sh

This will start the server on 8080.

"SPAGO BI"

Moving SpagoBI to Dedicated `Tomcat7` Server.

NOTE : Before we start stop spagobi server, which we started earlier.

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# /opt/spagobi/bin/shutdown.sh

Extract tomcat to /opt and create a softlink as tomcat.

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# tar xvzf apache-tomcat-7.0.59.tar.gz -C /opt
[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# ln -s /opt/apache-tomcat-7.0.59 /opt/tomcat

Copy `lib` Files.

Copy without overwrite.

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# cp -n /opt/spagobi/lib/* /opt/tomcat/lib/

Option Details

-n, --no-clobber
      do  not  overwrite  an  existing  file  (overrides a previous -i option)

Copy webapps Directory.

Remove existing webapps directory as we dont need it any more.

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# rm -rf /opt/tomcat/webapps

Since we have already updated all the config files in the /opt/spagobi/webapps directory, we will copy them as it is.

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# cp -f /opt/spagobi/webapps /opt/tomcat/

Copy conf `server.xml` from /opt/spago.

Lets copy server.xml and overwrite the file.

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# cp -f /opt/spagobi/conf/server.xml /opt/tomcat/conf/server.xml

Copy `setenv.sh` to `/opt/tomcat/bin`.

Finally copy setenv.sh file to bin directory.

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# cp  /opt/spagobi/bin/setenv.sh  /opt/tomcat/bin/

Starting Tomcat Server.

[ahmed@ahmed-server ~]# sh /opt/tomcat/bin/startup.sh

We are done.
