Pre-requisite

• Configured Archiva in Synology

Procedure

1. Open the archiva.xml file found in the following location:

   /volume1/@appstore/Tomcat7/src/conf/Catalina/localhost

2. Update the Resource entry with the name mail/Session to become the following:

   <Resource name="mail/Session" auth="Container"
         type="javax.mail.Session"
         mail.smtp.host="smtp.gmail.com"
             mail.smtp.port="587"
             mail.smtp.auth="true"
             mail.smtp.user="<USERNAME>"
             password="<PASSWORD>"
             mail.smtp.starttls.enable="true"
             mail.transport.protocol="smtp"/>

   Token	Description
   USERNAME	Google Account
   PASSWORD	Google App Password

3. Save the updated file and wait for Archiva to restart.
   

   If you've updated the archiva.xml file and save it, Tomcat will detect it and it will restart the Archiva application.

1. Install Tomcat 7 package in Diskstation
2. Download archiva war file from the following address:

   https://archiva.apache.org/index.cgi

3. Place the downloaded war file (e.g. apache-archiva-2.2.3.war) into the following directory:

   /volume1/@appstore/Tomcat7/src/webapps/

4. In MariaDB, add the following user with appropriate password.

   archivauser

   and the following database

   archiva

5. Download the following jar files:

   mail-1.4.jar 
   mariadb-java-client-1.5.x.jar

6. Place the download jar files in the following directory:

   /volume1/@appstore/Tomcat7/src/lib

7. Create archiva.xml file in the following location:

   /volume1/@appstore/Tomcat7/src/conf/Catalina/localhost

   Add the following entries:

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
   <Context path="/archiva" docBase="/volume1/@appstore/Tomcat7/src/webapps/<ARCHIVA_WAR_FILENAME>">
   <Resource name="jdbc/users" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
   	username="archivauser"
   	password="<PASSWORD_HERE>"
   	driverClassName="org.mariadb.jdbc.Driver"
   	url="jdbc:mariadb://<MARIADB_HOST_IP>:<MARIADB_HOST_PORT
   	/archiva?autoReconnect=true" />
   <Resource name="mail/Session" auth="Container" 	type="javax.mail.Session" mail.smtp.host="localhost"/>
   </Context>

   Note: The <ARCHIVA_WAR_FILENAME>, <PASSWORD_HERE> <MARIADB_HOST_IP> and <MARIADB_HOST_PORT tokens must be replaced by the downloaded war file from step 2, password used from step 4, IP address of MariaDB and port used by MariaDB repectively.

8. Access archiva using the following address:

   http://<DISKSTATION_HOST_IP>:7070/archiva

   Note: Update the token <DISKSTATION_HOST_IP> with the IP of your Synology Diskstation.
