How to install Defense4All for OpenDaylight?

Question

(This is a duplicate question from ServerFault, but seems that is not a right place to ask and it got downvoted for no reason, so I re-post here)

Basically I am setting up an OpenDaylight controller for my SDN. And I am trying to install an application - Defense4All, which from the documentation, will communicate with the controller host.

I am reading the installation guide of it in https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Defense4All:Installation_Guide , but it seems that the link of getting binary of Defense4All is dead, and I can't find a way to get the binary of Defense4All. I managed to compile from source but I have no idea how to proceed after successful build. Anyone idea?

Answer 1

I finally fixed the issue. Hope someone feels useful.

I managed to compile the source with mvn install, which it successfully did all the compilation but it did not give me a binary. But I am able to do so using mvn package.

To be specific, under directory dfapp after unzipping the source zip file:

vm:~/defense4all-release-helium-sr3/dfapp$ mvn package

After a long build, you will find the binary file in dfapp.aggregate/target

Make sure you allocate enough memory (say, 2048) to the VM or it will suffer from insufficient memory error.

There are also some dependencies such as git and rpm, it varies with your machines, so take notice of the error log.
