JDBC user store manager is configured with org.wso2.carbon.user.core.jdbc.JDBCUserStoreManager user store manager class. By default, the WSO2 product database contains user store tables. When you configure a RDBMS (JDBC) user store, you can use internal user store tables or you can use an external database as a user store. If you going to use default user store tables, see User Management Related Tables section.

Before you begin!

Please read following topics:

In this page, you can find following details related to configuring a JDBC user store:

Properties used in JDBC userstore manager

Following are the properties used in JDBC user store manager:

Property NameDisplay NameDescription
DomainNameDomainNameUnique name to identify the user store. This should only be configured for secondary user stores.
urlConnection URLConnection URL to the database which can include additional connection parameters as well
Sample values: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/wso2is
userNameConnection NameThe username used to connect to database and perform various operations. This user does not have to be an administrator in the database or have an administrator role in the WSO2 product that you are using, but this user MUST have privileges to do required operation.
passwordConnection PasswordPassword for the ConnectionName user.
driverNameDriver NameJDBC driver name which used to connect to the database. This driver should be available in the <PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/components/lib folder.
DisabledDisabledThis is to deactivate the user store. If you need to temporarily deactivate a user store, you can use this option. If you disable the user store from the disable option, it also will set this parameter. (Default: false)

Possible values:
true: Disable user store temporarily.
ReadOnlyRead-OnlyIndicates whether user store operates in the read-only mode or not.
Possible values:
true: Operates in read-only mode
false: Operates in read-write mode
ReadGroupsReadGroupsWhen WriteGroups is set to false, it Indicates whether groups should be read from the user store. If this is disabled by setting it to false, none of the groups in the user store can be read, and the following group configurations are NOT mandatory: GroupSearchBase, GroupNameListFilter, or GroupNameAttribute.

Possible values:
true: Read groups from user store
false: Do not read groups from user store
WriteGroupsWriteGroupsIndicates whether groups should be written to the user store.

Possible values:
true : Write groups to user store
false : Do not write groups to user store, so only internal roles can be created. Depending on the value of ReadGroups property, it will read existing groups from user store or not
UsernameJavaRegExUsername RegEx (Java)The regular expression used by the back-end components for username validation. By default, strings with non-empty characters have a length of 3 to 30 are allowed. You can provide ranges of alphabets, numbers and also ranges of ASCII values in the RegEx properties.
Default: [a-zA-Z0-9._-|//]{3,30}$
UsernameJavaScriptRegExUsername RegEx (Javascript)The regular expression used by the front-end components for username validation. Default: ^[\S]{3,30}$
UsernameJavaRegExViolationErrorMsgUsername RegEx Violation Error Message Error message when the Username is not matched with UsernameJavaRegEx
PasswordJavaRegExPassword RegEx (Java)The regular expression used by the back-end components for password validation. By default, strings with non-empty characters have a length of 5 to 30 are allowed. You can provide ranges of alphabets, numbers and also ranges of ASCII values in the RegEx properties.
Default: ^[\S]{5,30}$
PasswordJavaScriptRegExPassword RegEx (Javascript)The regular expression used by the front-end components for password validation.
Default: ^[\S]{5,30}$
PasswordJavaRegExViolationErrorMsgPassword RegEx Violation Error MessageError message when the Password is not matched with passwordJavaRegEx
RolenameJavaRegExRole Name RegEx (Java)The regular expression used by the back-end components for role name validation. By default, strings with non-empty characters have a length of 3 to 30 are allowed. You can provide ranges of alphabets, numbers and also ranges of ASCII values in the RegEx properties.
Default: [a-zA-Z0-9._-|//]{3,30}$
RolenameJavaScriptRegExRole Name RegEx (Javascript)The regular expression used by the front-end components for role name validation. Default: ^[\S]{3,30}$
CaseInsensitiveUsernameCase Insensitive Username

Indicates whether the user name should be case insensitive or not.
Default: false

Possible values:
true: If you are not using case-sensitive usernames better to configure this. Please note that enabling this could lead to performance degradation when searching for users as the number of users increases.

SCIMEnabledEnable SCIMThis is to configure whether user store is supported for SCIM provisioning.

Possible values:
True : User store support for SCIM provisioning.
False : User does not store support for SCIM provisioning.
IsBulkImportSupportedBulk Import SupportDefine whether the userstore support for bulk user import operation
PasswordHashMethodPassword Hashing Algorithm

Specifies the Password Hashing Algorithm used the hash the password before storing in the user store.
Possible values:
SHA - Uses SHA digest method. SHA-1, SHA-256
MD5 - Uses MD 5 digest method.
PLAIN_TEXT - Plain text passwords.

If you enter SHA as the value, it is considered as SHA-1. It is always better to configure an algorithm with a higher bit value so that the digest bit size is higher.


MultiAttributeSeparatorMultiple Attribute SeparatorThis property is used to define a character to separate multiple attributes. This ensures that it will not appear as part of a claim value. Normally “,” is used to separate multiple attributes, but you can define ",,," or "..." or a similar character sequence
Default: “,”
StoreSaltedPasswordEnable Salted Passwords
Indicates whether to stores the password with salted value
Default: true
Possible values: false

By default WSO2 IS stores the password with a salted value. The recommended way to protect passwords is to use salted password hashing. Once it is salted, the passwords are less vulnerable to dictionary and brute force attacks.

Setting this property to false causes passwords to be stored without a salted value. This means that if two users (Alex and Larry) have the same password, it is stored as the same hash value.

However, if salted passwords are used, WSO2 IS adds a random value to the password and then generates the hash of the password. Therefore if two users have the same password, they would be stored as different hashed values. This is a more secure method of storing passwords.

MaxUserNameListLengthMaximum User List LengthControls the number of users listed in the user store of a WSO2 product. This is useful when you have a large number of users and do not want to list them all. Setting this property to 0 displays all users. (Default: 100)

In some user stores, there are policies to limit the number of records that can be returned from a query. By setting the value to 0, it will list the maximum results returned by the user store. If you need to increase this number, you need to set it in the user store level.
Eg: Active directory has the MaxPageSize property with the default value of 1000.
MaxRoleNameListLengthMaximum Role List LengthControls the number of roles listed in the user store of a WSO2 product. This is useful when you have a large number of roles and do not want to list them all. Setting this property to 0 displays all roles. (Default: 100)

In some user stores, there are policies to limit the number of records that can be returned from a query. By setting the value to 0, it will list the maximum results returned by the user store. If you need to increase this number, you need to set it in the user store level.
Eg: Active directory has the MaxPageSize property with the default value of 1000.
UserRolesCacheEnabledEnable User Role Cache This is to indicate whether to cache the role list of a user. (Default: true)

Possible values:
false: Set it to false if the user roles are changed by external means and those changes should be instantly reflected in the Carbon instance.
TenantManager
Define the tenant manager class specific to each user store type. This is only used in primary user store since its shared among tenants.
JDBC : org.wso2.carbon.user.core.tenant.JDBCTenantManager
LDAP / AD : org.wso2.carbon.user.core.tenant.CommonHybridLDAPTenantManager
CountRetrieverClassCount Implementation

This defines the user /role count retriever implementation class (Only supported for)

Possible values:
JDBC : org.wso2.carbon.identity.user.store.count.jdbc.JDBCUserStoreCountRetriever

Addition to these properties, you can configure SQL queries that are used in JDBC user store manager and if required can change default queries. Those are not listed under this property section but you can see it in the sample configuration with default queries. If you do not change the default queries, you can remove those from the configuration file since those are defined in the user store manager implementation.

Configure Primary user store with datasource

When configuring a JDBC user store as a primary user store, you can use a datasource to configure database connection configurations and point that datasource from user store manager configurations. This is a much cleaner way to configure primary user store with a JDBC user store.

To define a datasource, you can use master-datasources.xml file, which is stored in <PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/conf/datasources/ directory. For detailed information on setting up databases, see Setting Up the Physical Database, and for information on the purpose of defining datasources and how they are configured for a product, see Managing Datasources.

  1. There are two possible methods for updating datasources:
    Shown below is how master-datasources.xml file is configured to connect to the default H2 database in your system. If you have replaced the default database with a new RDBMS, which you are now using as the JDBC users store, you have to update the master-datasource.xml file with the relevant information.

    <datasource>
            <name>WSO2_CARBON_DB</name>
            <description>The datasource used for registry and user manager</description>
            <jndiConfig>
                <name>jdbc/WSO2CarbonDB</name>
            </jndiConfig>
            <definition type="RDBMS">
                <configuration>
                    <url>jdbc:h2:repository/database/WSO2CARBON_DB;DB_CLOSE_ON_EXIT=FALSE;LOCK_TIMEOUT=60000</url>
                    <username>wso2carbon</username>
                    <password>wso2carbon</password>
                    <driverClassName>org.h2.Driver</driverClassName>
                    <maxActive>50</maxActive>
                    <maxWait>60000</maxWait>
                    <testOnBorrow>true</testOnBorrow>
                    <validationQuery>SELECT 1</validationQuery>
                    <validationInterval>30000</validationInterval>
                </configuration>
            </definition>
</datasource>

    Alternatively, instead of using the master-datasource.xml file, you can also create a new XML file with the datasource information of your new RDBMS and store it in the same <PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/conf/datasources/ directory.

  2. Now, the datasource configuration and the user store manager configuration in user-mgt.xml file should be linked together. You can do this by referring the datasource information (typically defined in the master-datasources.xml file) from the user-mgt.xml file as explained below.
    The RDBMS that is used for storing authorization information is configured under the <Configuration> section in the user-mgt.xml file, by adding <Property name="dataSource"> as shown below. The following example refers to the default WSO2CarbonDB datasource.

    <Configuration>
    .......
    <Property name="dataSource">jdbc/WSO2CarbonDB</Property>
</Configuration>

    Configuring user store manager no need to set the connection detail. See the following sample configuration.

     sample property JDBC with datasource
    <UserStoreManager class="org.wso2.carbon.user.core.jdbc.JDBCUserStoreManager">
      <Property name="Disabled">false</Property>
      <Property name="ReadOnly">false</Property>
      <Property name="ReadGroups">true</Property>
      <Property name="WriteGroups">true</Property>
      <Property name="UsernameJavaRegEx">^[\S]{5,30}$</Property>
      <Property name="UsernameJavaScriptRegEx">^[\S]{5,30}$</Property>
      <Property name="UsernameJavaRegExViolationErrorMsg">Username pattern policy violated.</Property>
      <Property name="PasswordJavaRegEx">^[\S]{5,30}$</Property>
      <Property name="PasswordJavaScriptRegEx">^[\S]{5,30}$</Property>
      <Property name="PasswordJavaRegExViolationErrorMsg">Password pattern policy violated.</Property>
      <Property name="RolenameJavaRegEx">^[\S]{5,30}$</Property>
      <Property name="RolenameJavaScriptRegEx">^[\S]{5,30}$</Property>
      <Property name="CaseInsensitiveUsername">true</Property>
      <Property name="SCIMEnabled">true</Property>
      <Property name="IsBulkImportSupported">false</Property>
      <Property name="PasswordDigest">SHA-256</Property>
      <Property name="MultiAttributeSeparator">,</Property>
      <Property name="StoreSaltedPassword">true</Property>
      <Property name="MaxUserNameListLength">100</Property>
      <Property name="MaxRoleNameListLength">100</Property>
      <Property name="UserRolesCacheEnabled">true</Property>
      <Property name="UserNameUniqueAcrossTenants">false</Property>
      <Property name="validationQuery">SELECT 1</Property>
      <Property name="validationInterval">30000</Property>
      <Property name="CountRetrieverClass">org.wso2.carbon.identity.user.store.count.jdbc.JDBCUserStoreCountRetriever</Property>
      <Property name="Description">Sample JDBC user store configuration</Property>
</UserStoreManager>

    If you are using the same RDBMS as the user store in your system, this datasource reference would suffice. However, if you have set up a separate RDBMS as the user store, instead of using a common RDBMS for authorization information as well as the user store, you must refer to the datasource configuration from within the User Store Manager configuration in the user-mgt.xml file by adding the <Property name="dataSource"> property.

Special requirements

Add relevant JDBC driver to the classpath by copying its JAR file into the <PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/components/lib directory.

You need to restart the server after doing these changes.
