Configure System Properties#

When you download the Privacera package, system properties for each Privacera service are pre-configured and bundled in it. Privacera allows you to append additional system properties that were not pre-configured. To know which Privacera services can be configured, click here.

Configuration

To configure additional system properties, perform the following steps:

Refer the table given in the link above and get the custom file name to be configured for service.
Replace $ADD_FILE_NAME with the file name in the following command and run it.
```
vi ~/privacera/privacera-manager/config/custom-properties/$ADD_FILE_NAME
```
Add the required system properties.

Run the update.

cd ~/privacera/privacera-manager
./privacera-manager.sh update

Example

Let's illustrate the steps described above with an example. Suppose you are unable to access Privacera Portal due to a Whitelabel Error Page message. To address this problem, you need to add the following properties:

privacera.portal.saml.max.authentication.age.sec
privacera.portal.saml.response.skew.sec
privacera.portal.saml.force.authn

These properties are not configured in the default system properties of the Portal service and have to be added separately.

To add these properties, perform the following steps:

From the table, refer to the Portal service in the Service column and gets its custom file name. In this case, it is portal-custom.properties.

Add the file name in the following command and run it.

vi ~/privacera/privacera-manager/config/custom-properties/portal-custom.properties

Add the following properties with their values.

privacera.portal.saml.max.authentication.age.sec=31556952 
privacera.portal.saml.response.skew.sec=600 
privacera.portal.saml.force.authn=true

Run the update.

cd ~/privacera/privacera-manager
./privacera-manager.sh update
