Good Practices WSO2 Startup

In this post, we going to review some good practices in the startup of WSO2
Products.

1. – Change the default key and cert of wso2carbon.jks and
client-trustore.jks, this is important because all the encrypted communication
and messages and data encryption use this files. Here the link to make this
change: https://docs.wso2.com/display/ADMIN44x/Creating+New+Keystores

2.- Change defaults logs location: Remember that WSO2 use log4j and log4j2 and is recommendable separate the partion for tmp, logs and data from application binaries and resources. Another change that you should consider is put in level ERROR all logs, for change logs you can review: https://docs.wso2.com/display/ADMIN44x/Monitoring+Logs

3.- In the last point we talk to change the default tmp location, this you
can make it, just editing the ${WSO2_HOME}/bin/wso2server.sh in the JavaOpt java.io.tmpdir

4.- Set language in the wso2server.sh, if you aren´t sure if the encoding of
the operative system is correctly set, is recommended set in this file the next variables with UTF-8 like example:

export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8

5.- Set specifics ciphers for the TLS communication to enforce the security https://docs.wso2.com/display/ADMIN44x/Configuring+Transport+Level+Security
