  • Automate daily database Vacuuming. This is a process which cleans out discarded data from the database. A quick way to automate vacuuming is to edit the cron file for the database user. Recommended: VACUUM ANALYZE every hour and VACUUM FULL ANALYZE every day.

    Add this line to the file. The numbers and stars at the beginning are cron columns that specify when the program should be run - in this case, whenever the minute is 0 and the hour is 1, i.e., 1:00 am every day.

  • At this point the database should be ready for installing OpenACS.

  • Configure an AOLserver Service for OpenACS.�

    1. The AOLserver architecture lets you run an arbitrary number of virtual servers. A virtual server is an HTTP service running on a specific port, e.g. port 80. In order for OpenACS to work, you need to configure a virtual server. The Reference Platform uses a configuration file included in the OpenACS tarball, /var/lib/aolserver/service0/etc/config.tcl. - Open it in an editor to adjust the parameters.

      [root root]# su - service0
+	   Open it in an editor to adjust the parameters.
      [root root]# su - service0
 [service0 service0]$ cd /var/lib/aolserver/service0/etc
 [service0 etc]$ emacs config.tcl
