5 | The following instructions assume the top level Greenstone folder is called
|
---|
6 | Greenstone (which is the standard name used for Greenstone 2 releases).
|
---|
7 | If you have got Greenstone from SVN, the top level directory will be greenstone2.
|
---|
8 |
|
---|
9 | The Greenstone Librarian Interface (GLI) code will be in the gli folder inside
|
---|
10 | the Greenstone folder. If you are using SVN and you want to use the GLI to
|
---|
11 | build collections, you'll need to check it out by running
|
---|
12 | svn checkout http://svn.greenstone.org/main/trunk/gli
|
---|
13 | in the Greenstone folder.
|
---|
14 |
|
---|
15 | -- Compiling and installing on Unix --
|
---|
16 |
|
---|
17 | cd to the top level Greenstone directory (i.e. the directory
|
---|
18 | where this file lives) and perform the following three steps.
|
---|
19 |
|
---|
20 | 1. ./configure --enable-apache-httpd
|
---|
21 | 2. make
|
---|
22 | 3. make install
|
---|
23 |
|
---|
24 | This will install the library.cgi and oaiserver.cgi executables to
|
---|
25 | Greenstone/cgi-bin/linux.
|
---|
26 | If you want to run Greenstone from a system
|
---|
27 | cgi-bin directory you'll need to move the library executable and
|
---|
28 | gsdlsite.cfg from Greenstone/cgi-bin/linux to your system cgi-bin.
|
---|
29 |
|
---|
30 | Note that the Greenstone directory structure is important to the operation
|
---|
31 | of the software. Therefore the --prefix, --bindir etc. options to configure
|
---|
32 | make no sense and will have no effect. If you want Greenstone to be
|
---|
33 | installed somewhere specific (say /usr/local) you'll need to move the
|
---|
34 | entire Greenstone directory there.
|
---|
35 |
|
---|
36 | Greenstone will install Apache into apache-httpd/linux. You can disable this
|
---|
37 | by running ./configure without the -enable-apache-httpd option. In that case
|
---|
38 | you'll need to set up your own apache to serve Greenstone. See See
|
---|
39 | http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/Setting_up_an_Apache_Web_Server_for_Greenstone_2_Walkthrough
|
---|
40 | for more details.
|
---|
41 |
|
---|
42 | To compile the GLI, cd to the gli directory and run makegli.sh
|
---|
43 |
|
---|
44 | -- Compiling on Windows --
|
---|
45 |
|
---|
46 | Greenstone has been successfully compiled using Microsoft Visual C++
|
---|
47 | versions 4.2, 6.0 and 2005. If anyone succeeds in compiling Greenstone with
|
---|
48 | another compiler (or another version of VC++) we'd appreciate hearing about
|
---|
49 | it at [email protected]
|
---|
50 |
|
---|
51 | If you have got Greenstone from svn, you'll also need to download some Windows binaries.
|
---|
52 | 1. cd to top-level greenstone2 folder.
|
---|
53 | 2. cd bin
|
---|
54 | 3. svn co http://svn.greenstone.org/main/trunk/binaries/windows/bin windows
|
---|
55 |
|
---|
56 |
|
---|
57 | There is a batch script you can run to set up and compile Greenstone.
|
---|
58 |
|
---|
59 | If you want Greenstone to try and guess your Visual Studio setup, edit the
|
---|
60 | makegs2.bat file and set SET_GS_ENV to true. Otherwise you'll need to set up
|
---|
61 | your Visual Studio environment before running the make script.
|
---|
62 | For example, run
|
---|
63 | C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\vc\vcvarsall.bat
|
---|
64 |
|
---|
65 | To compile greenstone:
|
---|
66 | For 64 bit machines, run
|
---|
67 | * makegs2x64.bat
|
---|
68 | For 32 bit machines, run
|
---|
69 | * makegs2.bat
|
---|

|
---|
75 | http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/Compiling_Greenstone
|
---|
76 |
|
---|
77 | These scripts will unpack necessary zip files, set up paths etc, then compile
|
---|
78 | Greenstone. They will install library.cgi and oaiserver.cgi to the
|
---|
79 | Greenstone\cgi-bin\windows
|
---|
80 | directory and server.exe to the top level Greenstone directory.
|
---|
81 |
|
---|
82 | To run the web library you'll need to set up a web server to serve Greenstone.
|
---|
83 | Then you'll need to edit Greenstone\cgi-bin\gsdlsite.cfg. See
|
---|
