Starting from Open Source Mobile Device Management? here’s a quick install howto of H-MDM for testing.
We install with postgressql db password “topsecret”, you may change it to be more secure.
# Download dependencies
yum -y install nethserver-tomcat tomcat8 java-1.8.0-openjdk nethserver-postgresql unzip
# Enable and start tomcat8 instead of 7
systemctl disable tomcat --now
systemctl enable tomcat8 --now
signal-event firewall-adjust
config setprop tomcat status disabled
# Create DB and user with password topsecret
su - postgres -c psql
CREATE USER hmdm WITH PASSWORD 'topsecret';
CREATE DATABASE hmdm WITH OWNER=hmdm;
\q
# Download and unzip and prepare h-mdm and aapt
wget -nc https://h-mdm.com/files/hmdm-3.09-install-ubuntu.zip
wget -nc https://dl.google.com/android/repository/build-tools_r28.0.2-linux.zip
unzip -o build-tools_r28.0.2-linux.zip
mv -f android-9/* /usr/local/bin/
unzip -o hmdm-3.09-install-ubuntu.zip
cd hmdm-install
chmod +x hmdm_install.sh
# change tomcat path for installing to tomcat8
sed -i 's!/var/lib/tomcat8!/opt/tomcat8!' hmdm_install.sh

Ready to install!
Location on server: /opt/hmdm
URL: http://joomla.local:8080/hmdm
Is this information correct [Y/n]? y
Tomcat config file created: /opt/tomcat8/conf/Catalina/localhost//hmdm.xml
Deploying hmdm-3.09.0004.war to Tomcat: /opt/tomcat8/webapps//hmdm.war
.................................
Deployment successful, initializing the database...
======================================
Headwind MDM has been installed!
To continue, open in your web browser:
http://example.com:8080/hmdm
Now just create a reverse proxy in web UI for “example.com” to http://localhost:8080
Browse to https://example.com/hmdm and test H-MDM
You need a domain for the reverse proxy but it works at https://<NETH_IP>:8080/hmdm too.
