-INSTALLATION
-============
-
-Koha 3 comes with a new installer, based on MakeMaker, the tool that
-is usually used to install CPAN modules. This means that if you know
-how to customise CPAN-installed modules, the same things should work
-for you with Koha. If not, don't worry. If you want to customise the
-installation more than described below, run "man ExtUtils::MakeMaker"
-
-You need to have a server running MySQL 5 or PostgreSQL 8.2.5, Zebra
-2.0.22 or greater and a webserver (preferably Apache2) before installing
-Koha.
-
-MySQL 5: Create a database called 'koha,' owned by 'kohaadmin'
-user, with a password set. Note: kohaadmin must have at least the
-following privileges: SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP,
-ALTER, and LOCK TABLES.
-
-PostgreSQL 8.2.5: Create a database called 'koha,' owned by 'kohaadmin'
-user, with a password set. Note: kohaadmin must be a superuser. You
-must also add plpgsql to the koha database.
-
-Default installation instructions:
-
-1. perl Makefile.PL
- (you will be prompted to answer a number of questions)
-2. make
-3.(optional) make test
-4. sudo make install
-5. sudo ln -s /etc/koha/koha-httpd.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/koha
- (note that the path to koha-httpd.conf may be different depending on your
- installation choices)
-6. sudo a2enmod rewrite
-7. sudo a2ensite koha && /etc/init.d/apache2 reload
-8. sudo zebrasrv -f /etc/koha/koha-conf.xml
- (note that you will want to run Zebra in daemon mode for a production
- system)
-9. Browse to http://servername:8080/ and answer the questions
-
-OR if you want to install all dependencies from CPAN and are root, you can
-replace steps 1-3 with "perl install-CPAN.pl" but this is non-standard and
-may not be safe. Nevertheless, it's pretty cool when it works.
-
-The defaults will install Koha to places that follow relevant standards,
-such as the File Hierarchy Standard. If you want to install Koha to a
-different directory like /opt/koha, then replace step 1 with (for example):
-
-1. perl Makefile.PL INTRANET_CGI_DIR=/www/cgi-bin
-
-You can change most of the defaults in a similar way, such as DB_HOST.
-For full instructions on how to override the default settings, run
-
-$ perldoc rewrite-config.PL
-
-
