RavenDb 4 Part 1 - Installation

Raven Server folder refers to the location where you extracted the RavenDb zip downloaded from their website.

Start administrator powershell prompt

curl.exe -LJO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ravendb/ravendb/v4.1/scripts/certificates/powershell/generate-server-cert.ps1

Create two certificates:

.\generate-server-cert.ps1 -CN *.mooo.com -CertFile server.pfx
.\generate-server-cert.ps1 -CN *.mooo.com -CertFile client.pfx

Copy server.pfx to Raven Server folder C:\RavenDB-4.2.0-windows-x64\Server

In the RavenDb installation folder (e.g. C:\RavenDB-4.2.0-windows-x64\Server) rename settings.default.json to settings.json and replace the contents with:

(replace widgets.com with the domain you used when generating the certificates)

{
  "DataDir": "RavenData",
  "License.Eula.Accepted": true,
  "Setup.Mode": "Secured",
  "Security.Certificate.Path": "server.pfx",
  "Security.Certificate.Password": "",
  "ServerUrl": "https://0.0.0.0:8080",
  "ServerUrl.Tcp": "tcp://0.0.0.0:38888",
  "PublicServerUrl": "https://raven1.widgets.com:8080",
  "PublicServerUrl.Tcp": "tcp://raven1.widgets.com:38888"
}

Ensure DNS exists for your domain. If you are running this locally then edit your hosts file and add an entry for raven1.widgets.com that points to 127.0.0.1

Using your admin powershell console navigate to base RavenDb folder (C:\RavenDB-4.2.0-windows-x64) and run run.ps1 or, if you want to run it as a service setup-as-service.ps1

raven1.asus-g75v.com

//X509Certificate2 certificate = new X509Certificate2(Path.Combine(@"D:\temp\dotnetcore-webapp-spike\aspnetcoreapp\bin\Debug\netcoreapp2.2", "client.pfx"), "fred");

var store = new X509Store(StoreLocation.LocalMachine); x509.Open(OpenFlags.ReadOnly);

sc.exe create a_ravendemo binPath= "C:\temp\ravendemo\bin\Release\netcoreapp2.2\win10-x64\publish\ravendemo.exe --service"
