Koha filesystem layout on Debian
================================

The Debian packaging of Koha puts files in the following places:

* /etc/koha -- system configuration files
* /etc/cron.hourly/koha-common -- cron job
* /usr/share/koha -- shared files (HTML templates, Perl code, etc)

Each Koha instance has files in the following places:

* /etc/koha/sites/$name -- confguration files
* /etc/apache2/sites-available/$name -- Apache config file
* /var/lib/koha/$name -- Zebra databases
* /var/log/koha/$name -- log files (Apache, Zebra)
* /var/lock/koha/$name -- run-time lock files
* /var/run/koha/$name -- run-time sockets etc
* /var/spool/koha/$name -- database dumps


Koha and MySQL
==============

koha-common's postinst script sets up the /etc/mysql/koha-common.cnf,
and all scripts use that to access the MySQL database. By default, it
is a symlink pointing at debian.cnf, and only works on localhost.
If you wish, you can create a file /etc/mysql/koha-common.cnf instead
of the symlink, and point it at a remote server. There is currently
no tool to help you do that, but it should be fairly straightforward.
