  • Red Hat ☛ A fully automated setup of a JBoss EAP cluster using Ansible

    Info alert: Note

    This article assumes that you have prior knowledge of both Ansible and the steps associated with a basic installation of Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (JBoss EAP)/WildFly. Visit the Ansible courses page to learn the fundamentals of using Ansible.

    An earlier article already covered this topic. However, this article provides a much needed update to its content; particularly documenting how to use the Red Bait Ansible Certified Content Collection for JBoss EAP (redhat.eap) instead of the community version of the collection (middleware_automation.wildfly).

  • MJ Fransen ☛ Compile GnuPG 2.3.4 on FreeBSD

    Compile GnuPG 2.3.4 on FreeBSD

    FreeBSD 14 comes with GnuPG 2.4.3, which results in problems when using Emacs with GnuPG. These problems concern both the encryption of files as the encryption of email messages. Decrypting isn't a problem.

    This is a known problem, and the general advise is to install an older version of GnuPG.

    To use Emacs with GnuPG I removed the GnuPG package and related packages, compiled GnuPG 2.3.4 from source, and installed it using GNU Stow.
