Welcome to the OLAT build and configuration tasks. Setup a new system using the following tasks: ** Make sure you copied build.properties.default to build.properties and did ** ** modify all values accordingly! ** Automatic (recommended): ant install - Do just everything ant dbsetup - Setup DB (MySQL) ant dbsetup_postgreSQL - Alternatively: setup DB (PostgreSQL) Manually: ant clean - Scrub temporary files ant build - Build whole project (without scrubbing) ant config-all - Configure everything and deploy the configuration ant dbsetup - Setup DB (MySQL) ant dbsetup_postgreSQL - Alternatively: setup DB (PostgreSQL) Deployment: ant deploy - copies a context.xml file to your tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost/ dir ant undeploy - Removes the context descriptor Note: Use ant -projecthelp to see all targets with a short description.

Database Setup: --------------- - Run target 'dbsetup' to create the necessary tables for OLAT and initialize them with default data. If you are using postgres use the target 'dbsetup_postgreSQL' instead. - To recreate the tables, you can call 'dbsetup' again. However: *** YOU WILL LOOSE ALL DATA *** by calling 'dbsetup' Tomcat configuration: --------------------- Two possibilities: 1) with a context.xml - recommended when tomcat hosts multiple apps or OLAT's Or when you are a newbie to tomcat - Start tomcat. You must have an engine called 'Catalina' and a host 'localhost'. This is the tomcat default setup, in case you have no idea what this means, just start tomcat, it will most likey run. - Make sure you have permission to tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost - run 'ant deploy' to deploy the OLAT application - run 'ant undeploy' to undeploy the OLAT application. - There is no need to restart tomcat, just let it run 2) with server.xml - recommended when OLAT is the only app that is running in tomcat - Check sample configuration for Tomcat (server.xml) in /conf directory. - Copy file 'server.xml' to your TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml - If you are not using Tomcat 5 you must copy the files xalan.jar, xercesImpl.jar and xmlApis.jar to your TOMCAT_HOME/commons/endorsed directory. We recommend you to upgrade to Tomcat 5! - Restart tomcat. Apache configuration (optional, only needed with JK connector): --------------------------------------------------------------- - Check sample configuration for Apache (httpd.conf) in /conf directory if you use the jk connector server xml. - If you're using virtual hosts, include the file 'httpd.conf' in your Apache's main httpd.conf or add it to /etc/apache/vhosts.d if you have such a directory. - Remember to restart your Apache with 'apache stop; apache start'. - If you enabled SSL support, make sure you replace the demo certificate with a valid certificate for your domain name Wiki (recommended): ------------------- The included wiki render engine can display math formulas. To do so you you can import the fonts into your os (for every client) or you use the image fonst that are serverside deployed. Run 'ant jsmath' to unzip the fonts to the folder. Monitoring Setup (optional): ---------------------------- - Run 'crontab -u olatunixuser ${monitoring.dir}/conf/monitoring-crontab to install the necessary cronjobs for the mrtg based monitoring This is optional Jabber Setup (optional): ------------------------ - Read the manual what you have to do to setup the Jabber instant messaging server. Congratulations! You're just a few steps away from running OLAT.
