shotoclay Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 (edited) Hi! Im building community site and would like to include online library. Ive found a great script on http://www.greenstone.org but there are practically no instruction on how to get on webhost. Is there anyone who could help me with it? I don't even know where to start... Will appreciate any help! THanks Edited September 17, 2004 by TCH-Don Quote
shotoclay Posted September 17, 2004 Author Posted September 17, 2004 Oh, is there anyone who knows what other software can be used for online library? Thanks Quote
TCH-Don Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 I edited the link to make it work. The site seems to have some suppot, that may help. Have you searched hotscripts.com for similar scripts? Quote
LisaJill Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 The install instructions are here. Based off them I think you won't be able to install this on TCH servers, for these reasons: Unix installationTo install the Unix version from the CD-ROM, insert the disk into the drive, and type mount /cdrom mount the CD-ROM device (this command may differ from one system to another; for example on OS/X you cd to the /Volumes directory and then to the appropriate subdirectory for the CD-ROM) cd /cdrom change directory to the CD-ROM’s top level cd Unix change directory to where the Unix install script resides sh Install.sh begin the installation process (an explicit sh is used because many installations forbid you to execute programs directly from CD-ROM) and Unix webserver configurationIf you already have a webserver, some small changes will have to be made to its configuration to make your Greenstone installation operate. The install script explains what these are. You will probably need help from your system administrator to reconfigure the webserver—he or she should be able to understand the instructions output by the install script. For your convenience, the output of the install script is written to a file called INSTALL_RECORD in the directory into which you installed Greenstone. Unless you're on a dedicated server then these changes would affect everyone and so won't be done. I'd suggest you locate a more shared-hosting friendly package. =) Quote
