====== Vufind 0.8.2 on Ubuntu 8.04 ======
You can //mostly// script the installation of Vufind on Ubuntu. The following details the installation from a "clean" instance of Ubuntu Server.
The first step is to make sure you have the latest patches installed.
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Next, install SSH and the JDK 6 on the server.
sudo apt-get -y install sun-java6-jdk
While you're installing Java, you'll be prompted to accept the user license.
Note: You can run the Jetty server with the JRE, but in order to ensure that your server
can run with the "-server" to enable server heuristics, you need to install the JDK.
===== Apache2 =====
Vufind needs to run PHP, for the purposes here we'll use Apache2.
sudo apt-get -y install apache2
sudo a2enmod rewrite
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload
===== PHP =====
sudo apt-get -y install php5 php5-dev php-pear php5-ldap php5-mysql php5-xsl php5-pspell aspell aspell-en
==== PHP OCI Driver for Oracle ====
There are a few steps if you need to install the OCI8 libraries. First, upgrade pear to the latest version((see [[http://www.itslot.com/oci8_php5_ubuntu|adapted from pipe's blog]])).
sudo pear upgrade pear
Now, you need to get the [[http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/oci/instantclient/index.html|Oracle Instant Client]] (at a minimum you need Basic and SDK zip pages).
sudo mkdir -p /opt/oracle
cd /opt/oracle
# download/move the client libraries to /opt/oracle
sudo unzip basic.zip
sudo unzip sdk.zip
# make a symlink to make upgrading easier
sudo ln -s instantclient_11_1 instantclient
There are some symlinks that need to be made in the actual folders...
cd /opt/oracle/instantclient
sudo ln -s libclntsh.so.10.1 libclntsh.so
sudo ln -s libocci.so.10.1 libocci.so
Now add the Instant Client to the system dynamic library loader.
echo /opt/oracle/instantclient > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/oracle-instantclient
Now compile and install the OCI8 package with PECL
sudo pecl install oci8
Note, you will be prompted for the instantclient directory, so when you're prompted, just enter
/opt/oracle/instantclient
Now install the PHP extension and restart Apache
sudo echo extension=oci8 >> /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
===== MySQL =====
sudo apt-get -y install mysql-server
===== Vufind =====
Now for the fun part!
cd /tmp
wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/vufind/vufind-0.8.2.tar.gz?big_mirror=0
tar zxvf vufind-0.8.2.tar.gz
sudo mv vufind-0.8.2 /usr/local/vufind
sudo chown www-data:www-data /usr/local/vufind/web/interface/compile
sudo chown www-data:www-data /usr/local/vufind/web/interface/cache
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/vufind/vufind.sh
===== Apache Settings =====
We need to add a couple of settings to Apache in order to make sure everything will run properly. In the /etc/apache2/apache2.conf file, add the following:
Alias /vufind /usr/local/vufind/web
AllowOverride ALL
Order allow,deny
allow from all
Now, reload
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload
==== Environmental Variables ====
There are a few environmental variables that need to be set. You can set these for the user running the service, or in /etc/profile if you're lazy.
export JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun"
export VUFIND_HOME="/usr/local/vufind"
==== Install Script ====
sudo /usr/local/vufind/install
====== A (Mostly) Scripted Default Installation ======
You can use this script to (mostly) install everything to get Vufind running on Ubuntu. Just save this script as ubuntu_setup.sh.
sudo sh ubuntu_setup.sh
#!/bin/bash
# Script for installing Vufind 0.8.2 on Ubuntu
# This does not include the OCI8 libraries
# Set some variables
VUFIND_URL="http://downloads.sourceforge.net/vufind/vufind-0.8.2.tar.gz?big_mirror=0"
VUFIND_HOME="/usr/local/vufind"
# Update the system and install software
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get -y install sun-java6-jdk apache2 php5 php5-dev php-pear php5-ldap php5-mysql php5-xsl php5-pspell aspell aspell-en mysql-server
# enable mod_rewrite
sudo a2enmod rewrite
# set up Apache for Vufind and reload configuration
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload
# download Vufind
cd /tmp
wget $VUFIND_URL
tar zxvf vuvind-0.8.2.tar.gz
sudo mv vufind-0.8.2 $VUFIND_HOME
sudo chown www-data:www-data $VUFIND_HOME/web/interface/compile
sudo chown www-data:www-data $VUFIND_HOME/web/interface/cache
sudo $VUFIND_HOME/install
