      1. Install nscache

        [root aolserver]# cd /usr/local/src/aolserver40r5/nscache
         [root nscache]# make install
      2. Install nsoracle (if you want to use Oracle)

        [root nscache]# cd ../nsoracle
         [root nsoracle]# make install
      3. Install nspostgres (if you want to use Postgres)

        [root nsrewrite]# cd ../nspostgres
        -[root nspostgres]# make install POSTGRES=LSB ACS=1 INST=/usr/local/aolserver40r2 

        If you get errors like:

        nspostgres.c: In function `Ns_PgTableList':

        nspostgres.c: In function `Ns_PgTableList':
         nspostgres.c:679: warning: passing arg 3 of `Tcl_DStringAppend' as signed due to prototype

        then PostGreSQL is probably not in the standard location. The location of PostGreSQL is very dependent on which method was used to install it. To correct the problem, replace LSB with the path to the path to your PostGreSQL installation. Often this is /usr/local/pgsql.

        Another possibility is that you may need to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environmental variable. You may still get warnings, but sometimes this will fix things @@ -59,24 +59,24 @@

        If you run into problems with libpq.a do the following (and repeat the step above)

        [root nspostgres]# ranlib /usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.a

        If you run into problems with the linker, edit the Makefile. Add -lnsdb to the MODLIBS var.

        MODLIBS = -L$(PGLIB) -lpq -lnsdb
      4. Install nssha1

        [root nsrewrite]# cd ../nssha1
         [root nssha1]# make

        If the make fails you will have to edit nssha1.c. Comment out the following 2 lines (lines 139-140):

        // typedef unsigned int u_int32_t;
         // typedef unsigned char u_int8_t;

        Now install nssha1:

        [root nssha1]# make install
      5. Install tDOM

        [root nssha1]# cd ../tDOM-0.7.8/unix

        Edit the CONFIG file. Uncomment the instructions meant for AOLserver 4, but edit it to look like this:

        ../configure --enable-threads --disable-tdomalloc
        -          --prefix=/usr/local/aolserver40r2 --with-tcl=/usr/local/lib

        Now you can compile and configure tDOM

        [root unix]# sh CONFIG
        +          --prefix=/usr/local/aolserver40r5 --with-tcl=/usr/local/lib

        Now you can compile and configure tDOM

        [root unix]# sh CONFIG
         [root unix]# make install

    3. Add a database-specific wrapper script.�This script sets database environment variables before starting AOLserver; this allows the AOLserver instance can communicate with the database. There is one script each for Oracle and PostgreSQL. They don't conflict, so if you plan - to use both databases, install both.

      • Oracle

        [root aolserver]# cd /usr/local/aolserver40r2/bin
        +	  to use both databases, install both.

        • Oracle

          [root aolserver]# cd /usr/local/aolserver40r5/bin
           [root bin]# cp /tmp/openacs-5.1.0/packages/acs-core-docs/www/files/nsd-oracle.txt ./nsd-oracle
           [root bin]# chmod 750 nsd-oracle
           [root bin]#
          -cd /usr/local/aolserver40r2/bin

          -chmod 750 nsd-oracle
        • PostgreSQL

          [root aolserver]# cd /usr/local/aolserver40r2/bin
          +chmod 750 nsd-oracle
        • PostgreSQL

          [root aolserver]# cd /usr/local/aolserver40r5/bin
           [root bin]# cp /tmp/openacs-5.1.0/packages/acs-core-docs/www/files/nsd-postgres.txt ./nsd-postgres
           [root bin]# chmod 755 nsd-postgres
           [root bin]#
          -cd /usr/local/aolserver40r2/bin
          +cd /usr/local/aolserver40r5/bin
           cp /tmp/openacs-5.1.0/packages/acs-core-docs/www/files/nsd-postgres.txt ./nsd-postgres
           chmod 755 nsd-postgres

        You may need to edit these scripts if you are not using /usr/local/aolserver as the directory of Aolserver4.

      • Change startup script (optional).�If you want to run AOLserver on a port below 1024 (normally, for a webserver you will use 80), you will have to change the /var/lib/aolserver/service0/etc/daemontools/run script according to the documentation found there (namely: Add the -b yourip:yourport switch)

      • Test AOLserver.
