Thanks again for your very detailed and helpful response. I overthink
EVERYTHING, its just who I am...but I also want to make the script as well
put together as I can and looking at my current RHEL/CentOS 7.x script,
there is a ton of room for improvement based on what I am learning/doing
now.
1 more questions. Given we are on the same page re: dirs, what permissions
do you assign to them (owner/group and file permissions)? I dont mean the
services, for those I have a guac user and a tomcat user, I just mean the
dirs/files.
I have probably put ~10hours into the RHEL/CentOS 8.x script since my last
reply here. I have found myself essentially doing what you describe in your
last reply to me. In large part thanks to your input, but also after reading
tomcat, guacamole and other documentation.
/opt/guacamole for guacamole server
/etc/guacamole as its the default GUACAMOLE_HOME
/etc/guacamole/{lib, extensions} for JDBC driver and extensions
/opt/tomcat for tomcat
/opt/tomcat/webapps for guacamole.war (guac client)
Without going too in depth, I actually intend to use /opt/guacamole and
/opt/tomcat as symlinks to /opt/guac-version and /opt/tomcat-version to
potentially making updating easier in the future.
My script sets up Nginx and configures it for SSL, etc. I am pretty
comfortable in that regard.
Was just a bit of a shock (but a good learning experience) going from Tomcat
installed from a rpm via yum to having to unpack the tar.gz and set it
up/configure it properly.
I am very excited to get my script working on RHEL/CentOS 8.x. I have
trimmed out a lot of "fat" already, which should make updating it, following
it (when I look at parts long after I write them) and expanding on it much
easier. IN doing so I am hoping after I get it working, I can focus on
adding features to it, not wrestling with the untidy parts of it (since I
hope to clean them up).
Its actually going so well, that despite my original plan to stop working on
the 7.x version of the script and focus on a separate 8.x version...I might
actually be able to use a single script for both without a ton of extra
logic/work like I expected it to be. Not saying thats what I will do, but at
least considering it now.
My 8.x script is in a private repo now. Once I have it running and am
comfortable its decently reliable I plan to move it to a public github repo
and share it with others like I do the 7.x version. At that time I will
surely post back to the mailing list to let people now about it.
So many Thanks to you, I hope to "pass it forward" so to speak.
