MapStore2 users GeoServer integration with Authkey

Requirements

1. GeoServer must have the Authkey plugin installed
2. MapStore2 Database must be reachable by GeoServer (H2 will not work, use PostgreSQL or Oracle)
3. MapStore2 must be reachable by GeoServer

This example will focus on PostgreSQL database type I am assuming this is a new installation, so no existing user or map will be preserved

Database preparation

1. Follow Geostore readme files to setup a postgresql database (ignore the geostore_test part)
2. Start Tomcat once to make it extract the war file
3. Stop Tomcat
4. Copy the WEB-INF/classes/db-conf/postgres.properties file over the WEB-INF/classes/geostore-database-ovr.properties
5. Start Tomcat

Default user password couples are

• admin:admin
• user:user
