Setting Up a Distributed Setup Using the APIM Enterprise Package¶

The WSO2 API Manager Enterprise Package comprises the API Control Plane, Traffic Manager, and Universal Gateway. This guide walks you through setting up a distributed APIM environment using the WSO2 API Manager Enterprise Package.

Prerequisites¶

Docker Engine 20.10.x or newer
Docker Compose v2.x or newer

Setting Up the Environment¶

Ensure Docker and Docker Compose are installed correctly and running.

Step 1 - Download the artifacts¶

Download the archive apim-distributed-dev-setup.zip and extract it.

Step 2 - Prepare the Components¶

Navigate to the apim-distributed-dev-setup directory.

Download the WSO2 API Manager Enterprise Package from the WSO2 API Manager downloads page for API Control Plane, Traffic Manager and Universal Gateway components.
Extract the downloaded archives into the apim-distributed-dev-setup/components directory, and rename the extracted folders to wso2am-acp, wso2am-tm, and wso2am-universal-gw.
```
mv wso2am-acp-4.5.0 wso2am-acp
mv wso2am-tm-4.5.0 wso2am-tm
mv wso2am-universal-gw-4.5.0 wso2am-universal-gw
```
Note

The directory names must strictly follow the naming convention: wso2am-acp, wso2am-tm, and wso2am-universal-gw.

Step 3 - Start the Distributed Setup¶

Run the following command to initialize the MySQL database and start the APIM components:

sh run.sh start --seed

Info

The --seed argument ensures that the database scripts located in apim-distributed-dev-setup/conf/mysql/scripts are executed during startup to initialize the databases.

Each APIM component starts with the following network port offset:

wso2am-acp: Zero offset
wso2am-tm: Offset of 1
wso2am-universal-gw: Offset of 2

If the database scripts have already been executed, you can start the setup without the --seed argument:

sh run.sh start

Step 4 - Access the Portals¶

Once the services are up and running, you can access the portals using the following URLs, and Gateway can be accessed using https://localhost:8245

Developer Portal: https://localhost:9443/devportal
Publisher Portal: https://localhost:9443/publisher

Step 5 - Stop the Services¶

To stop all running services, execute:

sh run.sh --stop

Environment Configuration¶

The deployment.toml file of each component, located in apim-distributed-dev-setup/conf/{wso2am-acp, wso2am-tm, wso2am-universal-gw}/repository/conf, is used as the deployment configuration when starting each component. If you want to change any deployment configurations, modify the deployment.toml file in the respective component's directory and restart the setup.

Troubleshooting¶

If you encounter any issues, check the logs in the apim-distributed-dev-setup/logs directory of each component for more information.

To terminate all WSO2 Java services:

ps -ef | grep 'wso2' | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}' | xargs -r kill -9

If you encounter database issues, try restarting the setup.
