| | This would have been fine but the default install that Codero put on the hypervisor did not actually work, i.e. it was not possible to ssh to it, it took a chat with their tech to realise that it was actually their problem. So I destroyed that instance and set another up and ssh'd no worries. | | This would have been fine but the default install that Codero put on the hypervisor did not actually work, i.e. it was not possible to ssh to it, it took a chat with their tech to realise that it was actually their problem.

| − | (not that i was ever really in that loop, but i knew names at least)
| |
| − | | |
| − | mkay
| |
| − | | |
| − | well christina aguilera has got fat and deliberately so, and there is much tut tutting and finger pointing and its hilarious
| |
| − | | |
| − | dom't install the pkg!
| |
| − | | |
| − | what do you mean install
| |
| − | | |
| − | oh i see
| |
| − | | |
| − | there is already an instance of ubuntu on the box dont
| |
| − | | |
| − | the OD pkg hasn't been updated in years
| |
| − | | |
| − | oh ok so its a matter of installing the various components from sourceforge etc eh
| |
| − | | |
| − | i need to change the proc to a hard-wired apt line
| |
| − | | |
| − | well maybe if it always has to be slavishly folows it might as well just be ascript
| |
| − | | |
| − | well anyway ill find modern instances of the package contnets
| |
| − | | |
| − | no its best if a human is present for every step
| |
| − | | |
| − | yes
| |
| − | | |
| − | http://dev.znazza.com/The_Znazza_system#Server_installation
| |
| − | | |
| − | that has an up-to-date apt-get list
| |
| − | | |
| − | the first is for general tools
| |
| − | | |
| − | then further down the lamp stuff
| |
| − | | |
| − | yes good it looks like a slightly updated tho znazza specific list of procs
| |
| − | | |
| − | be sure to begin a doc so you are documenting his server as you go, not after you're done
| |
| − | | |
| − | yes good will do
| |
| − | | |
| − | i'm refering you to just the packages not the rest of the proc, use the od proc for the rest
| |
| − | | |
| − | yes
| |
| − | | |
| − | although the way ssh and rsa keys are done is a good idea too
| |
| − | | |
| − | k
| |
| − | | |
| − | well i might as well update the proc with the new apts once ive done the install and my doc
| |
| − | | |
| − | wo
| |
| − | | |
| − | hangon
| |
| − | | |
| − | i'll update that now and add ssh stuff
| |
| − | | |
| − | surely those apts in the znazza are for debian 6
| |
| − | | |
| − | im running ubuntu 10.04
| |
| − | | |
| − | ok
| |
| − | | |
| − | the deb source is not gona make a diff?
| |
| − | | |
| − | ubuntu/debian, any version, same packages
| |
| − | | |
| − | ok cool just checking
| |
| − | | |
| − | just use the default sources for your os
| |
| − | | |
| − | ah ok
| |
| − | | |
| − | yep
| |
| − | | |
| − | just do apt-get and thatsall
| |
| − | | |
| − | yep
| |
| − | | |
| − | oh - update && upgrade first of course
| |
| − | | |
| − | yeah
| |
| − | | |
| − | when you going to the land?
| |
| − | | |
| − | probly tomorrow late morning/early arvo
| |
| − | | |
| − | 8pm now
| |
| − | | |
| − | oh all right so i doubt if you will be doing any work on this wiki sorry if you are planning to before you leave cos as i said ive just set up my sation
| |
| − | | |
| − | by onto it yes
| |
| − | | |
| − | ok well just get the wiki going and all the domain set up etc - also be good to get off any some wireframes of what kinds of pages he wants and what functionality will be on them
| |
| − | | |
| − | so far we have one page type - a page representing a location resulting from the autocomplete searcg box
| |
| − | | |
| − | oh yes well that will take a good deal of back and forth with him and his offsider izzy
| |
| − | | |
| − | wireframes i mean
| |
| − | | |
| − | but ill focus on te 1.20 and the smw first
| |
| − | | |
| − | and the server obviously
| |
| − | | |
| − | yep there's quite a lot to do such as all the email set up etc
| |
| − | | |
| − | yes
| |
| − | | |
| − | now i dont need a wikia or bot framework here surely?
| |
| − | | |
| − | and document properly so that your documentation serves as the proc to rebuild quickly a working replica on a new server if necessary
| |
| − | | |
| − | yes
| |
| − | | |
| − | nope
| |
| − | | |
| − | anything else i should ignore?
| |
| − | | |
| − | look at the znazza proc, its more like what you'll want
| |
| − | | |
| − | yep ok
| |
| − | | |
| − | yes a doc is going to be in order here big time
| |
| − | | |
| − | since thats a standard single-wiki server
| |
| − | | |
| − | and is also a good example of the kind of doc that should be forming for andy
| |
| − | | |
| − | ok
| |
| − | | |
| − | every aspect of the server, svn, ssh etc and the code developed is covered in that doc
| |
| − | | |
| − | k
| |
| − | | |
| − | ill will seek to do something similar then
| |
| − | | |
| − | the daily backups is a useful thing to set up too
| |
| − | | |
| − | ok
| |
| − | | |
| − | which is covered in that z proc
| |
| − | | |
| − | (works properly in a way that doesn't fill the server up to 100% disk unlike OD!)
| |
| − | | |
| − | ok i will go thru it and do the stuff needed and do backups and etc later
| |
| − | | |
| − | nless its too simple and i might as well do it at the time what you think?
| |
| − | | |
| − | its only the stuff starting at Server Installation, so not too much to read
| |
| − | | |
| − | ok
| |
| − | | |
| − | yes ive seen it looks ok
| |
| − | | |
| − | yeah just get each bit working as ou go
| |
| − | | |
| − | let me know where the doc is (spose it should be on his own wiki) and I'll document the extension code there too
| |
| − | | |
| − | ok yes ill put it on its own wiki
| |
| − | | |
| − | which means ill do it locally first i suppose
| |
| − | | |
| − | so that means i might as well create it as an article in OD and copy it over when I'm done to the new wiki at the end of the install a wiki part
| |
| − | | |
| − | yea just note pad it until yuo have the wiki running
| |
| − | | |
| − | either/or
| |
| − | | |
| − | k
| |
| − | | |
| − | just update mail config proc, it didn't include packages to install as it relied on od-server
| |
| − | | |
| − | apt-get install exim4-daemon-heavy, dovecot-common, dovecot-imapd, spamassassin, spamc
| |
| − | | |
| − | ok ill check that

Set Up Server
Andy after consulting decided to use the Codero public cloud, a 2 processor 2GB 50gb VM instance with an Ubuntu 10.04 install which is a bit old but does come with PHP 5.3 which is needed for Mediawiki 1.20 so its OK.
This would have been fine but the default install that Codero put on the hypervisor did not actually work, i.e. it was not possible to ssh to it, it took a chat with their tech to realise that it was actually their problem. So I destroyed that instance and set another up and ssh'd no worries.
Performed an apt-get update and upgrade and set up four users: jack nad andy and izzy.
Using the znazza example I installed
apt-get install sudo p7zip-full bzip2 unzip subversion git imagemagick
I had to install git-core there was no package git found.
