10 <title>Overview</title>
\r
11 <para>Installing, configuring and testing the Evergreen server-side software is straightforward with the current stable software release. See <xref linkend="serversideinstallation-all"/> for instructions tailored to installing on some particular distributions of the <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> operating system. Earlier software distributions are described in <xref linkend="serversideinstallation-previousversions"/>.</para>
\r
12 <para>The current version of the Evergreen server-side software runs as a native application on any of several well-known <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> distributions (e.g., <systemitem class="osname">Ubuntu</systemitem> and <systemitem class="osname">Debian</systemitem>). It does not currently run as a native application on the <systemitem class="osname">Microsoft Windows</systemitem> operating system (e.g., <systemitem class="osname">WindowsXP</systemitem>, <systemitem class="osname">WindowsXP Professional</systemitem>, <systemitem class="osname">Windows7</systemitem>), but the software can still be installed and run on <systemitem class="osname">Windows</systemitem> via a so-called <emphasis>virtualized</emphasis> Linux-guest Operating System (using, for example, <application>"VirtualBox"</application>, or <application>"VMware"</application>, or <application>"VirtualPC"</application> to emulate a <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> environment). It can also be installed to run on other <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> systems via virtualized environments (using, for example, <application>"VirtualBox"</application> or <application>"VMware"</application>). More information on virtualized environments can be found in <xref linkend="serversideinstallation-virtual"/>.</para>
\r
13 <para>Installation of some sub-components of the Evergreen server-side software is mentioned only in abbreviated form in this section. More detailed information is available in <xref linkend="serversideinstallation-postgresql"/> and <xref linkend="serversideinstallation-apache"/>.</para>
\r
14 <para>Finally, installation of the Evergreen Staff Client software is reviewed in <xref linkend="serversideinstallation-staffclient"/>. </para>
\r
16 <title>Evergreen Software Dependencies</title>
\r
17 <para>The Evergreen server-side software has dependencies on particular versions of certain major software sub-components. Successful installation of Evergreen software requires that software versions agree with those listed here:</para>

65 <title>Installing Server-Side Software</title>
\r
66 <para>This section describes the installation of the major components of Evergreen server-side software.</para>
\r
67 <para>As far as possible, you should perform the following steps in the exact order given since the success of many steps relies on the successful completion of earlier steps. You should make backup copies of files and environments when you are instructed to do so. In the event of installation problems those copies can allow you to back out of a step gracefully and resume the installation from a known state. See <xref linkend="backingup"/> for further information.</para>
\r
68 <para>Of course, after you successfully complete and test the entire Evergreen installation you should take a final snapshot backup of your system(s). This can be the first in the series of regularly scheduled system backups that you should probably also begin.</para>

On a single-server system, the easiest way to define public and private domains is to define separate host names by adding entries to the file <filename>/etc/hosts</filename>.</para>

2243 the server to that system, or even manually build it on that system. Ensure that the BUILD_ID you choose on the server matches the BUILD_ID for each Staff

2245 <para>If you will be using a pre-packaged <systemitem class="osname">Windows</systemitem> version on some systems, you may want to choose the BUILD_ID

2260 <systemitem class="osname">Windows</systemitem> for client machines, but have limited <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> experience. You can
\r
2261 build the Staff Client on a <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> system without installing the Evergreen Server component. This is a relatively
\r
2262 simple process compared to server installation, but does require some command-line work. The following directions are for building Staff Client version
\r
2263 1.2.1.4 on <systemitem class="osname">Kubuntu 7.10</systemitem>; you must modify them for other distributions (the instructions should work as-is for
\r
2264 <systemitem class="osname">Ubuntu</systemitem> or <systemitem class="osname">Debian</systemitem> derivatives).</para>
\r
2267 <para>Prerequisites</para>
\r
2268 <para>Both <application>"subversion"</application> and <application>"xulrunner"</application> are required to build the Staff Client.
\r
2269 As the <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user, use <application>"apt-get"</application> to install packages
\r
2270 for <application>"subversion"</application> and <application>"xulrunner"</application>. You can also use <application>"synaptic"</application>,
\r
2271 the graphical user interface for <application>"apt-get"</application>. For <application>"subversion"</application>, select the latest
\r
2272 version; for <application>"xulrunner"</application>, select version <emphasis>1.8.1.4-2ubuntu5</emphasis>.</para>
\r
2275 <userinput>sudo apt-get install subversion</userinput>

\r
2280 <para>Download the Source Code</para>
\r
2283 <para>Determine which version is needed</para>
\r
2284 <para>For most end-users, a specific version is required to communicate properly with the Evergreen server. Check with your system administrator, IT person, or HelpDesk to determine which Staff Client versions are supported.</para>
\r
2285 <para>Next, you need to determine which <emphasis>tag</emphasis> to use when downloading the source code. Tags are markers in the source code to create a snapshot of the code as it existed at a certain time; tags usually point to tested and stable code, or at least a community-recognized release version.</para>
\r
2286 <para>To determine which tag to use, browse to <ulink url="http://svn.open-ils.org/trac/ILS/browser">http://svn.open-ils.org/trac/ILS/browser</ulink>. Look in the <guibutton>Visit</guibutton> drop-down box; see the list of Branches and, further down, a list of Tags. You may have to do some guesswork, but it is fairly straightforward to determine which tag to use. If the server is version 1.2.1.4, you will want to use the tag that looks most appropriate. For example, as you look through the tag list, notice the tag named 'rel_1_2_1_4'. This is the tag you need; make a note of it for the next step.</para>
\r
2289 <para>Download the Code</para>
\r
2290 <para>As the <systemitem class="username">opensrf</systemitem> user, open a terminal (command-line prompt) and navigate to the directory in which you wish to download the Staff Client. Use the following commands to download the proper version of the source code by tag name:</para>

\r

\r
2305 <para>In the following example, navigate to the directory in which the source code was downloaded, then navigate to the proper subdirectory and run the <command>make</command> utility to actually build the Staff Client. Remember to check with your system administrator about which Staff Client BUILD_ID to use. The server checks the Staff Client BUILD_ID against itself to determine whether or not a connecting client is supported. For instance, for the PINES installation (version 1.2.1.4) the supported BUILD_ID is <literal>rel_1_2_1_4</literal>. Modify the following commands accordingly.</para>

2865 download script to force a download of the generic client XPI (compared to Firefox trying to install it as an extension).</para>

2916 servers. In addition to providing excellent data security, this method also buffers and caches data traveling to and from the Staff Client and can speed up access to resources
