System requirements
Operating systems
Distribution | Release(s) | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) | 7 | 8 | 9 | ||
Ubuntu Server | 16.04 LTS | 18.04 LTS | 20.04 LTS | 22.04 LTS | 24.04 LTS |
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server | 12 | 15 |
Other Linux operating systems may work but are not officially supported.
SUSE: Install fontconfig dependency
To generate Captchas, the font configuration library and FreeType must be installed:
- RHEL –
yum install freetype fontconfig
- Ubuntu Server –
apt install fontconfig
- SUSE –
zypper install libfreetype6 fontconfig
Java Runtime, JVM
Airlock IAM bundles the Java runtime and JVM as part of the distribution, and it does not need to be installed on the target system.
Datastores
Airlock IAM requires a datastore to store user- and other data, see User data source configuration.
The chosen data layer has to be well managed and monitored. IAM is not responsible for the operation and backup/recovery. This is also true if the H2 database shipped with IAM is used. For productive usage, the data layer should be clustered.
Supported databases and directories:
- Databases – PostgreSQL, Oracle, MySQL, MariaDB, Microsoft SQL Server, H2 (other databases with JDBC may work but are not supported).
- LDAP directories (you need to extend your schema).
- Microsoft Active Directory (no schema extension required but limits IAM features - see Microsoft Active Directory (MSAD) for Airlock IAM).
Note that most Airlock IAM features require a relational database.
User profile information and selected other data may be stored in a directory, but an additional relational database is still required for most features.
Minimum supported database versions:
Database | Minimum version |
---|---|
PostgreSQL | 13 |
Oracle | 19c |
MySQL | 8.0 |
MariaDB | 10.6 |
Microsoft SQL Server | 2017 |
H2 | 2.1.210 |
Browser compatibility
Supported browsers Loginapp UI
The Loginapp UI supports all browsers in the Baseline core browser set whose versions were released within 30 months (2.5 years) prior to the Angular 20's release on 2025-04-30. This is in line with Baseline's definition of “widely available” support (see also Baseline definition).
Currently (Q3 2025), this includes the following browser versions:
- Chrome (desktop and Android): 107
- Edge: 107
- Firefox (desktop and Android): 104
- Safari (macOS and iOS): 16
The Loginapp may work with older versions of the browsers specified above, or with other browsers. However, this is not guaranteed nor tested.
Supported browsers Adminapp
The Adminapp supports the same browsers as the Loginapp UI. For more information, see the section above.
The Adminapp is not designed to be used with mobile devices.
