10Installing Greenstone from a binary distribution:
11-------------------------------------------------
12
13Download the gsdl3-x.xx-unix.sh self-installing tar file into the directory you want Greenstone installed in, and run it.
14
15Installing Greenstone from a CVS checkout:
16------------------------------------------
17
18(cvs co gsdl3) (if not already done)
19cd gsdl3

21./gs3-prepare.sh
22./configure
23make
24make install
25[make docs] (for the javadoc)
26./gs3-finalise.sh
27
28If you want to compile the test servlet, (useful is you are unsure whether Tomcat is working properly), go to gsdl3/web/WEB-INF/classes, and run 'javac TestServlet.java'. You will need to have sourced gs3-setup.sh in the gsdl3 directory first.

30Running Greenstone:
31-------------------
32
33Run the script gs3-launch.sh from the gsdl3 directory. This starts up a Tomcat web server and a mysql database server. To shutdown, run gs3-launch.sh -shutdown
