Installing the private License Server in Linux OS

Attention!

If you have Axxon One installed on your computer, you must dedicate a separate computer to install the License Server. You cannot install the License Server together with Axxon One.
443 port must be open.

To install the private License Server in Linux OS, do the following:

Create an activation request (see Creating an activation request).
Contact an AxxonSoft manager to get the necessary license-server.deb package and the keyfile.zip key package for the private License Server.
The keyfile.zip key package contains:
1. Certificate: ngp.licserver.crt
2. Private key: ngp.licserver.key
3. Server key: server.license.key
4. Client key: license.key
Copy the license-server.deb package, received from an AxxonSoft manager, to the Downloads folder.
Install the private License Server:
```
sudo dpkg -i license-server.deb
```
Make sure that there is a LEASE_ACCOUNTER_TLS_AUTH_ENABLED=true variable at the /etc/AxxonSoft/LicenseServer/ path in the license.conf configuration file. If the variable is missing, run the following command:
```
sudo nano /etc/AxxonSoft/LicenseServer/license.conf
```
Unzip the keyfile.zip archive, received from an AxxonSoft manager, into the keyfile folder:
```
sudo mkdir keyfile & unzip keyfile.zip -d keyfile
```
Go to the keyfile folder:
```
cd ./keyfile/
```
Add the ngp.licserver.crt certificate and the ngp.licserver.key private key to the /etc/AxxonSoft/LicenseServer/ directory:
```
sudo cp ngp.licserver.crt ngp.licserver.key /etc/AxxonSoft/LicenseServer/
```
Go to the LicenseServer folder:
```
cd /etc/AxxonSoft/LicenseServer/
```
Restart the License Server:
```
sudo systemctl restart license
```
Go to the /etc/AxxonSoft/LicenseServer/ path and add the server.license.key to this directory:
```
sudo cp server.license.key /etc/AxxonSoft/LicenseServer/
```
Restart the License Server:
```
sudo systemctl restart license
```
Note
As a result, two files will be located at the /var/AxxonSoft/LicenseServer/keys path: server.license.key and a key named as the system ID.
Delete the server.license.key from the /var/AxxonSoft/LicenseServer/keys directory:
```
sudo rm /var/AxxonSoft/LicenseServer/keys/serv\ license.key
```
Activate the Client license.key on all Axxon One Servers in the domain using the activation utility (see Activation by applying license file)
Note
As a result, two files will be located on all Axxon One Servers in the domain at the /opt/AxxonSoft/RaFT/data/Nodes/default/Tickets/path: Client license.key and ngp.ca certificate.
