Galen Charlton 8f82439e61 important: DBD::mysql 4.004 or later required
This version of DBD::mysql is required in order to have
proper handling of UTF8 strings.

Also bumped version of YAML::Syck down to 0.71 to
match Debian stable package.

Installation Instructions
=============================
All commands can be performed as a system user with sudo privileges,
as indicated or by running the command directly as root.
Your locale should be set to UTF-8, as should Apache2 and MySQL 5.
This step is VERY IMPORTANT for a UNICODE compliant system. Please
read over the following document carefully:
http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=encodingscratchpad
1. Prepare System and Install Dependencies
1.1 Install Debian Etch via Businesscard CD
See http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/
1.2 Set up apt sources for Git, Yaz and Zebra packages
Edit your /etc/apt/sources.list file and add the following:
# Index Data
deb http://ftp.indexdata.dk/debian etch main
deb-src http://ftp.indexdata.dk/debian etch main
# Backports
deb http://www.backports.org/debian etch-backports main contrib non-free
Backports packages are signed with a key you can install as follows:
$ sudo apt-get install debian-backports-keyring
The Index Data packages are signed with a key you can install as follows:
$ wget http://ftp.indexdata.dk/debian/indexdata.asc
$ sudo apt-key add indexdata.asc
Run the following command to update your system:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get -t etch-backports install git-core git-email
$ sudo apt-get install yaz idzebra-2.0 idzebra-2.0-doc
1.3 Download Koha via Git
$ git clone git://git.koha.org/pub/scm/koha.git kohaclone
$ cd kohaclone
$ git checkout -b myinstall origin
Note: for more information about Git, please see the Koha Git Usage Guide:
http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:development:git_usage
1.4 Install additional Debian dependencies
IMPORTANT: You should only use CPAN for Perl dependencies which are NOT available from the package maintainer.
You have been warned!
Using the debian.packages file included in the Koha source tree,
run the following:
$ sudo dpkg --set-selections < install_misc/debian.packages
Now start dselect:
$ sudo dselect
Choose [I]nstall and accept packages to be installed (hit return)
(may take a while)
Choose [C]onfigure, [R]emove and [Q]uit until dselect has completed.
1.5 Install Perl dependencies that aren't packaged into Debian Etch
sources
Run the following command:
$ sudo cpan MARC::Record Class::Accessor MARC::Charset MARC::File::XML \
Net::Z3950::ZOOM HTML::Template::Pro MARC::Crosswalk::DublinCore \
PDF::Reuse PDF::Reuse::Barcode Data::ICal GD::Barcode::UPCE \
XML::RSS Algorithm::CheckDigits::M43_001 Biblio::EndnoteStyle POE Schedule::At
There is a known but benign error in the test case for Barcode::Code128,
which is required by PDF::Reuse::Barcode. If this module is not installed,
you can do a forced installation of Barcode::Code128.
Note: you may need to run CPAN initialization if you've not run cpan
before:
/etc/perl/CPAN/Config.pm initialized.
CPAN is the world-wide archive of perl resources. It consists of about
100 sites that all replicate the same contents all around the globe.
Many countries have at least one CPAN site already. The resources
found on CPAN are easily accessible with the CPAN.pm module. If you
want to use CPAN.pm, you have to configure it properly.
If you do not want to enter a dialog now, you can answer 'no' to this
question and I'll try to autoconfigure. (Note: you can revisit this
dialog anytime later by typing 'o conf init' at the cpan prompt.)
Are you ready for manual configuration? [yes]
When the configuration is completed CPAN will install the Perl modules.
2. Configuration of dependencies
2.1 Update root MySQL password (if dselect didn't do it for you already)
$ sudo mysqladmin password <password>
2.2 Create the Koha database
$ mysqladmin -uroot -p<password> create database <kohadatabasename>
$ mysql -uroot -p<password>
Create the database and user with associated privileges:
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 22
Server version: 5.0.32-Debian_7etch3-log Debian etch distribution
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.
mysql> create database <kohadatabasename>;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> grant all on <kohadatabasename>.* to '<kohadatabaseuser>'@'localhost' identified by '<kohadatabaseuserpassword>';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> flush privileges;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> quit
2.3 Create test database in order to install DBD::mysql
In order to handle UTF-8 correctly, Koha requires at least version 4.004
of the DBD::mysql Perl module. However, Debian Etch has a stable package
only for version 3.0008, so it is necessary to install the module from CPAN.
Because of DBD::mysql's test suite, it is necessary to temporarily create a
test database and user:
$ mysql -uroot -p<password>
Create the database and user with associated privileges:
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 22
Server version: 5.0.32-Debian_7etch3-log Debian etch distribution
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.
mysql> create database test;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> grant all on test.* to 'test'@'localhost' identified by 'test';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
(test database, user, and password can be different if need be)
mysql> flush privileges;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> quit
Next install DBD::mysql:
$ sudo cpan
cpan> o conf makepl_arg
(get current value of this CPAN parameter)
cpan> o conf makepl_arg "--testdb=test --testuser=test --testpass=test"
cpan> install DBD::mysql
cpan> o conf makepl_arg ''
(clear this setting to not interface with future CPAN installs).
Finally, remove the test database:
$ mysql -uroot -p<password>
mysql> drop database test;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> exit
Bye
3. Run the Koha installer
$ perl Makefile.PL
( answer questions )
$ make
$ make test
$ sudo make install
4. Configure and start Apache
$ sudo ln -s /etc/koha/koha-httpd.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/koha
(note that the path to koha-httpd.conf may be different depending on your
installation choices)
Add the following lines to /etc/apache2/ports.conf:
Listen 80
Listen 8080
Run the following commands:
$ sudo a2enmod rewrite
$ sudo a2ensite koha
$ sudo apache2ctl restart
5. Configure and start Zebra
Note: it's recommended that you daemonize the Zebra process and add it to your
startup profile. For a non-production test/development installation, running
Zebra from the command line can be useful. Pick from the two available options
below, or roll your own :-)
Note: it's also recommended that you create a Koha system user, which you will
have specified during the install process. Alternatively, Zebra can be
configured to run as the root user.
Option 1: run the Zebra processes from the command line:
Zebra Server:
$ sudo -u ${KOHA_USER} zebrasrv -f /etc/koha/koha-conf.xml
(note that the path to koha-conf.xml may be different depending on your
installation choices)
Note: the user you run Zebra as will be the only user with write permission
on the Zebra index; in development mode, you may wish to use your system
user.
Zebraqueue Daemon:
$ sudo -u ${KOHA_USER} misc/bin/zebraqueue_daemon.pl
Note: if you are running in this mode, you may wish to defer starting the
zebraqueue until you've run the web installer (see below).
Option 2: run the Zebra processes as daemons, and add to startup process:
Note that references to $SCRIPT_DIR refer to the directory where
Koha's command-line scripts are installed, e.g., /usr/share/koha/bin.
Zebra Server:
$ sudo ln -s ${SCRIPT_DIR}/koha-zebra-ctl.sh /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon
(Note: ${SCRIPT_DIR} is /usr/share/koha/bin/ by default in a standard install)
$ sudo update-rc.d koha-zebra-daemon defaults
( Note: see man chkconfig(8) on other distros )
$ sudo ${SCRIPT_DIR}/koha-zebra-ctl.sh start
Zebraqueue Daemon:
$ sudo ln -s ${SCRIPT_DIR}/koha-zebraqueue-ctl.sh /etc/init.d/koha-zebraqueue-daemon
$ sudo update-rc.d koha-zebraqueue-daemon defaults
( Note: see man chkconfig(8) on other distros )
$ sudo ${SCRIPT_DIR}/koha-zebraqueue-ctl.sh start
6. Run the Web Installer, populate the database, initial configuration of settings
Point your browser to http://<servername>:8080/
It should redirect you to the Web installer where you can continue the setup.
