This page describe the two-steps procedure to perform a copy of the ECtrans Associations from one ECaccess Gateway to another.

The two-steps are:

Because each Gateway has its own private-key for encryption it is required to decrypt and re-encrypt the ECtrans Associations with the relevant private-key.

Before to follow the procedure, please first download the following files and copy them into the mentioned directories:

Also, on the new ECaccess Gateway, make sure the "gateway/db" directory is original (the one from the distribution) and remove any "private-key.keystore" from the "gateway/conf" directory. This is important to allow a smooth execution of the procedure.

Step 1

Go to the "bin" directory of the existing Gateway and make sure it is not running:

#./gateway stop

Then start the export/decryption of the ECtrans Associations:

#./decrypt.sh

If the script complete successfully, a file named "uncrypted-assoc.sql" is created in the current directory with the ECtrans Associations in clear text.

Just move this file to the "bin" directory of the new Gateway.

Step 2

Go to the "bin" directory of the new Gateway and make sure it is not running:

#./gateway stop

Then start the encryption of the ECtrans Associations:

#./encrypt.sh

If the script complete successfully, a file named "ecaccess.script" is created in the current directory with the encrypted ECtrans Associations.

Copy this file to the "gateway/db" directory:

#cp ./ecaccess.script ../db/.

And start the Gateway:

#./gateway start
