  3. ---------------------- Installation on wikiexpert.com -------------------------- #
  1. DATA & TIMEZONE
  2. Make sure time is set correctly before wiki install
  3. On Redhat, PERL couldn't do locale properly and I had to hard-wire Linux zone with

cp /etc/localtime /etc/localtime.bak cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/NZ /etc/localtime

  1. Original rpm apache installation in /var/www controlled with /usr/sbin/apachectl
  2. /var/www/html/index.shtml is the index file
  3. Source install at /usr/local/apache2
  4. Apache now controlled with /usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl

cd /tmp wget http://apache.mirror99.com/httpd/httpd-2.2.0.tar.gz tar -zxvf httpd-2.2.0.tar.gz cd httpd-2.2.0 ./configure --enable-rewrite --enable-ssl make make install ###### NOTE Apche was not installed into init.d #####


  1. ------------------------- Zlib and BZip ------------------------------ #

cd /tmp wget http://www.zlib.net/zlib-1.2.3.tar.gz tar -zxvf zlib-1.2.3.tar.gz cd zlib-1.2.3 ./configure make make install wget http://www.bzip.org/1.0.3/bzip2-1.0.3.tar.gz tar -zxvf bzip2-1.0.3.tar.gz cd bzip2-1.0.3.tar.gz make make install


  1. --------------------- Installing mysql 5.0.19 from source --------------------- #
  2. see INSTALL-BINARY

  1. --------------------------- ming in /usr/local/lib/ --------------------------- #
  2. See http://www.opaque.net/wiki/index.php?MingInstall,
  3. http://www.opaque.net/wiki/index.php?PlatformIssues

cd /tmp wget http://superb-west.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/ming/ming-php-0.3.0.tar.gz tar -zxvf ming-php-0.3.0.tar.gz cd ming-0.3.0/php_ext cp -rf * ../../php-4.4.2/ext/ming/

  1. copy png2dbl into /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/wiki/png2dbl

chown daemon /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/wiki/png2dbl chmod 755 /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/wiki/png2dbl mkdir /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/www chown daemon /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/www chmod 777 /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/www


  1. ---------------------------------- PHP-4.4.2 ----------------------------------- #

cd /tmp wget http://us2.php.net/distributions/php-4.4.2.tar.gz tar -zxvf php-4.4.2.tar.gz cd php-4.4.2 ./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-ming --with-xml --with-domxml --with-zlib-dir=/usr/local/lib make make install cp php.ini-dist /usr/local/lib/php.ini nano /usr/local/lib/php.ini

  1. memory_limit = 64M
  2. extension_dir = "/usr/lib/php4/"
  3. extension=domxml.so
  4. extension=mbstring.so

vi /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf

  1. HTTPD.CONF
  2. Add: LoadModule php4_module module/libphp4.so
  3. Add: AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml

   ServerName organicdesign.co.nz
   ServerAlias www.organicdesign.co.nz
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/w.*/

  1. ---------------------------------- SCP ----------------------------------- #
  2. - you need all this to do SCP from Perl without requiring an linux account with no passwd

wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/R/RG/RGIERSIG/IO-Tty-1.02.tar.gz gzip -dc IO-Tty-1.02.tar.gz | tar -xof - cd IO-Tty-1.02 perl Makefile.PL make install

wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/R/RG/RGIERSIG/Expect-1.15.tar.gz gzip -dc Expect-1.15.tar.gz | tar -xof - cd Expect-1.15 perl Makefile.PL make install

wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/P/PH/PHOENIX/Term-ReadPassword-0.07.tar.gz gzip -dc Term-ReadPassword-0.07.tar.gz | tar -xof - cd Term-ReadPassword-0.07 perl Makefile.PL make install

wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/D/DJ/DJBERG/Net-SCP-Expect-0.12.tar.gz gzip -dc Net-SCP-Expect-0.12.tar.gz | tar -xof - cd Net-SCP-Expect-0.12 perl Makefile.PL make install

  1. Setup CPAN

perl -MCPAN -e shell

  1. cpan> install Bundle::CPAN
  2. cpan> reload cpan
  3. cpan> install IO::Socket::SSL
  4. cpan> exit


  1. ----------------------- Upgrading gcc to gcc-4.1.1 for R --------------------------- #
  2. Check off list http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html

cd /tmp wget ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/misc/gcc/releases/gcc-4.1.1/gcc-4.1.1.tar.bz2 bunzip2 gcc-4.1.1.tar.bz2 tar -xvf gcc-4.1.1.tar cd gcc-4.1.1 ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --disable-checking --disable-libunwind-exceptions --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --host=i386-redhat-linux --enable-languages=c,c++,fortran make make install


  1. -------------------------- Installing R from source -------------------------------- #
  2. Two major releases of R each year, currently R-2.3.1

cd /tmp wget http://cran.cnr.berkeley.edu/src/base/R-2/R-2.3.1.tar.gz tar -zxvf R-2.3.1.tar.gz cd R-2.3.1 ./configure --with-x=no # Using fortran compiler in gcc make make install
