| 25 | Build and install:
|
|---|
| 26 |
|
|---|
| 27 | Greenstone is built and installed using Ant (Apache's Java based build tool,
|
|---|
| 28 | http://ant.apache.org). You will need a Java Development
|
|---|
| 29 | Environment (1.4 or higher), and Ant installed to use Greenstone. You can download Ant from http://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi.
|
|---|
| 30 |
|
|---|
| 31 | In the gsdl3 directory, you can run ant which will give you a help message.
|
|---|
| 32 | Running 'ant -projecthelp' gives a list of the targets that you can run - these
|
|---|
| 33 | do various things like compile the source code, startup the server etc.
|
|---|
| 34 |
|
|---|
| 35 | For a first time install, run 'ant install'.
|
|---|
| 36 |
|
|---|
| 37 | The file build.properties contains various parameters that can be set by the user.

| 40 | Running Greenstone:
|
|---|
| 41 | -------------------
|
|---|
| 42 |
|
|---|
| 43 | To startup the servers, run 'ant startup'. 'ant restart' and 'ant shutdown' restarts and shuts down the servers.
|
|---|
| 44 |
|
|---|
| 45 | On Windows, if you have installed a binary version, you can also start Greenstone by selecting Greenstone 3 Digital Library from the Start menu.

| 47 | Using SOAP (Linux and Windows):
|
|---|
| 48 | -------------------------------
|
|---|
| 49 |
|
|---|
| 50 | Greenstone comes with Apache Axis installed as a webapp in Tomcat. A SOAP server on localsite is deployed during installation. You should be able to see all localsite's collections through the gateway servlet.
|
|---|
| 51 |
|
|---|
| 52 | To set up a SOAP server on a new site, run
|
|---|
| 53 | ant soap-deploy-site
|
|---|
| 54 | This will prompt you for the sitename (the directory name), and the site uri - this should be a unique identifier for the site's web service.
|
|---|
| 55 |
|
|---|
| 56 | Building Collections:
|
|---|
| 57 | -----------------------
|
|---|
| 58 | Windows: need to have Perl installed and on your PATH.
