Installation Instructions
=============================
All commands can be performed as a system user with sudo privileges,
as indicated or by running the command directly as root.
-Your locale should be set to UTF-8, as should Apache2 and MySQL 5.
-This step is VERY IMPORTANT for a UNICODE compliant system. Please
-read over the following document carefully:
-
-http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=encodingscratchpad
-
1. Prepare System and Install Dependencies
-1.1 Install Debian Etch via Businesscard CD
+1.1 Install Debian via Business Card CD
-See http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/
+ See http://www.debian.org/CD/netinst/
-1.2 Set up apt sources for Git, Yaz and Zebra packages
-
-Edit your /etc/apt/sources.list file and add the following:
-
- # Index Data
- deb http://ftp.indexdata.dk/debian etch main
- deb-src http://ftp.indexdata.dk/debian etch main
+1.2 Set up Indexdata apt sources for Yaz and Zebra packages
- # Backports
- deb http://www.backports.org/debian etch-backports main contrib non-free
+See the instructions from indexdata at
+http://ftp.indexdata.com/pub/debian/README
-Backports packages are signed with a key you can install as follows:
+At the time of writing, you need to create
+/etc/apt/sources.list.d/indexdata.list containing the following:
- $ sudo apt-get install debian-backports-keyring
-
-The Index Data packages are signed with a key you can install as follows:
+ # Index Data
+ deb http://ftp.indexdata.dk/debian squeeze main
+ deb-src http://ftp.indexdata.dk/debian squeeze main
- $ wget http://ftp.indexdata.dk/debian/indexdata.asc
- $ sudo apt-key add indexdata.asc
+and add their archive signing key to your system:
-Run the following command to update your system:
+ $ wget -O- http://ftp.indexdata.dk/debian/indexdata.asc | sudo apt-key add -
+Finally, update your apt sources:
$ sudo apt-get update
- $ sudo apt-get -t etch-backports install git-core git-email
- $ sudo apt-get install yaz idzebra-2.0 idzebra-2.0-doc
1.3 Get Koha
+Choose one of these options:
1.3.1 Option A: Download Koha via Git (optional)
- $ git clone git://git.koha.org/pub/scm/koha.git kohaclone
- $ cd kohaclone
+ $ sudo apt-get install git-core git-email
+ $ git clone git://git.koha-community.org/koha.git koha
+ $ cd koha
$ git checkout -b myinstall origin
Note: for more information about Git, please see the Koha Git Usage Guide:
- http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:development:git_usage
-
-1.3.2 Option B: Download Koha from koha.org
-
-1.4 Install additional Debian dependencies
-
-IMPORTANT: You should only use CPAN for Perl dependencies which are NOT available from the package maintainer.
- You have been warned!
+ http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Version_Control_Using_Git
-Using the debian.packages file included in the Koha source tree,
-run the following:
+1.3.2 Option B: Download Koha from http://download.koha-community.org
- $ sudo dpkg --set-selections < install_misc/debian.packages
+Find the latest Koha stable version on http://download.koha-community.org
+and download it to your server with something like:
-Now start dselect:
+ $ wget <URL found on download.koha-community.org>
- $ sudo dselect
+1.4 Install additional Debian dependencies
-Choose [I]nstall and accept packages to be installed (hit return)
+IMPORTANT: You should only use CPAN for Perl dependencies which are NOT
+ available from the package maintainer. You have been warned!
-(may take a while)
+Installing all necessary Debian packages, MySQL Server,
+Zebra and all Debian packaged Perl module required by Koha:
-Choose [C]onfigure, [R]emove and [Q]uit until dselect has completed.
+ $ sudo dpkg --set-selections < install_misc/debian.packages
+ $ sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade
-1.5 Install Perl dependencies that aren't packaged into Debian Etch
-sources
+1.5 Install Perl dependencies that aren't packaged into Debian
Run the following command:
- $ sudo cpan MARC::Record Class::Accessor MARC::Charset MARC::File::XML \
- Net::Z3950::ZOOM HTML::Template::Pro MARC::Crosswalk::DublinCore \
- PDF::Reuse PDF::Reuse::Barcode Data::ICal GD::Barcode::UPCE \
- XML::RSS Algorithm::CheckDigits::M43_001 Biblio::EndnoteStyle POE Schedule::At
+ $ perl koha_perl_deps.pl -m -u
-There is a known but benign error in the test case for Barcode::Code128,
-which is required by PDF::Reuse::Barcode. If this module is not installed,
-you can do a forced installation of Barcode::Code128.
+This will list whether any Perl dependencies are missing or need a
+later version and whether they are required. You can then install
+them another way. There may be packages on
+http://debian.koha-community.org or maybe you can build packages
+yourself or maybe you will need to install them locally with a command
+similar to
-Note: you may need to run CPAN initialization if you've not run cpan
-before:
+ $ sudo cpan Graphics::Magick
- /etc/perl/CPAN/Config.pm initialized.
-
- CPAN is the world-wide archive of perl resources. It consists of about
- 100 sites that all replicate the same contents all around the globe.
- Many countries have at least one CPAN site already. The resources
- found on CPAN are easily accessible with the CPAN.pm module. If you
- want to use CPAN.pm, you have to configure it properly.
-
- If you do not want to enter a dialog now, you can answer 'no' to this
- question and I'll try to autoconfigure. (Note: you can revisit this
- dialog anytime later by typing 'o conf init' at the cpan prompt.)
-
- Are you ready for manual configuration? [yes]
+Note: you may need to run CPAN initialization if you've not run cpan
+before. See http://search.cpan.org/~andk/CPAN/lib/CPAN.pm#CONFIGURATION
When the configuration is completed CPAN will install the Perl modules.
2. Configuration of dependencies
-2.1 Update root MySQL password (if dselect didn't do it for you already)
-
- $ sudo mysqladmin password <password>
-
-2.2 Create the Koha database
+2.1 Create the Koha database
- Create the database and user with associated privileges:
+ Create the database and user with associated privileges (information inside <> brackets is
+ data you assign specifically to your installation. Do not include the <>'s when entering the commands):
- $ mysqladmin -uroot -p<password> create database <kohadatabasename>
+ $ mysqladmin -uroot -p<password> create <kohadatabasename>
$ mysql -uroot -p<password>
-
+
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 22
- Server version: 5.0.32-Debian_7etch3-log Debian etch distribution
-
+ Server version: 5.0.51a-24 (Debian)
+
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.
-
+
mysql> grant all on <kohadatabasename>.* to '<kohadatabaseuser>'@'localhost' identified by '<kohadatabaseuserpassword>';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> quit
-2.3 Create test database in order to install DBD::mysql
+You may want to document the database name, the database username, and the database password you just set.
+Step 3 will require them.
-In order to handle UTF-8 correctly, Koha requires at least version 4.004
-of the DBD::mysql Perl module. However, Debian Etch has a stable package
-only for version 3.0008, so it is necessary to install the module from CPAN.
-Because of DBD::mysql's test suite, it is necessary to temporarily create a
-test database and user:
+2.2 Test your SAX Parser and correct where necessary
- $ mysql -uroot -p<password>
-
- Create the database and user with associated privileges:
-
- Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
- Your MySQL connection id is 22
- Server version: 5.0.32-Debian_7etch3-log Debian etch distribution
-
- Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.
-
- mysql> create database test;
- Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
-
- mysql> grant all on test.* to 'test'@'localhost' identified by 'test';
- Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
- (test database, user, and password can be different if need be)
-
- mysql> flush privileges;
- Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
-
- mysql> quit
+You must be sure you're using the XML::LibXML SAX parser, not Expat or
+PurePerl, both of which have outstanding bugs with pre-composed characters.
+You can test your SAX parser by running:
-Next install DBD::mysql:
+ $ cd koha
+ $ misc/sax_parser_print.pl
- $ sudo cpan
+You should see something like:
- cpan> o conf makepl_arg
- (get current value of this CPAN parameter)
+ XML::LibXML::SAX::Parser=HASH(0x81fe220)
- cpan> o conf makepl_arg "--testdb=test --testuser=test --testpass=test"
+If you are configured to use PurePerl or Expat, the script will say you have a problem and
+you'll need to edit your ini file to correct it.
- cpan> install DBD::mysql
+The file is typically located at:
- cpan> o conf makepl_arg ''
- (clear this setting to not interface with future CPAN installs).
+ /etc/perl/XML/SAX/ParserDetails.ini
+The correct parser entry will need to be moved to the bottom of the file.
+The following is the entry you are looking for:
-Finally, remove the test database:
+ [XML::LibXML::SAX::Parser]
+ http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces = 1
- $ mysql -uroot -p<password>
+2.3 Create your Koha system user (if you haven't created one already)
- mysql> drop database test;
- Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
+ $ sudo adduser koha
- mysql> exit
- Bye
+You can substitute any username for "koha," just be sure to write it down, you will need to know what it is in step 3.
3. Run the Koha installer
$ perl Makefile.PL
- ( answer questions )
+ ( answer questions )
$ make
$ make test
$ sudo make install
+3.1 Export the environment variables
+Make install will tell you what the proper path for these environment variables is.
+In case you missed it at the end of make install, here are some examples:
+
+Example (for standard install):
+ $ export KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/koha-conf.xml
+ $ export PERL5LIB=/usr/share/koha/lib
+
+Example (for dev install. These paths are set during Makefile.PL.):
+ $ export KOHA_CONF=/path/to/your/koha-conf.xml
+ $ export PERL5LIB=/path/to/koha/lib
+
4. Configure and start Apache
$ 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)
+(note that the path to koha-httpd.conf may be different if you chose a dev install)
Add the following lines to /etc/apache2/ports.conf:
Run the following commands:
- $ sudo a2enmod rewrite
+ $ sudo a2enmod rewrite deflate
$ sudo a2ensite koha
$ sudo apache2ctl restart
-5. Configure and start Zebra
+Note: you may still see the usual Apache default site if your VirtualHost
+ configuration isn't correct. If Koha is the only web application running on the server,
+ the command "sudo a2dissite default" may be a quick fix. For servers running other sites
+ alongside Koha, see the Apache HTTPD manual section on virtual hosts for full
+ instructions (http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/).
+
+5. Run the Web Installer, populate the database, initial configuration of settings
+
+Point your browser to http://<servername>:8080/
+
+Note: <servername> is (usually) the IP of your server, or localhost (if you are connecting
+ from the same machine Koha is installed on. You can verify the location by checking
+ the VirtualHost settings for both the opac and intranet virtual hosts in koha-httpd.conf
+
+Koha will redirect you to the Web Installer where you can continue the setup. You will be prompted to enter in your DATABASE username and password. It is through this interface
+that
+you can install the sample data for libraries, patrons, and much more.
+
+Be aware that removing sample data at a later time (when you may want to take the
+server into production) may not be easy, and if your intent is to take this
+install from testing to production, go with minimal sample data (no patrons or bibliographic records).
+
+6. Configure and start Zebra
Note: it's recommended that you daemonize the Zebra process and add it to your
-startup profile. For a non-production test/development installation, running
-Zebra from the command line can be useful. Pick from the two available options
-below, or roll your own :-)
+ startup profile. For a non-production test/development installation, running
+ Zebra from the command line can be useful. Pick one of the options below (or roll your own).
Note: it's also recommended that you create a Koha system user, which you will
-have specified during the install process. Alternatively, Zebra can be
-configured to run as the root user.
+ have specified during the install process. Alternatively, Zebra can be
+ configured to run as the root user.
+
+Option 1: run the Zebra processes from the command line (manual indexing):
-Option 1: run the Zebra processes from the command line:
+6.1.1 Zebra Search Server
- Zebra Server:
- $ sudo -u ${KOHA_USER} zebrasrv -f /etc/koha/koha-conf.xml
- (note that the path to koha-conf.xml may be different depending on your
- installation choices)
+This process send responses to search requests sent by Koha or
+Z39.50/SRU/SRW clients.
- Note: the user you run Zebra as will be the only user with write permission
- on the Zebra index; in development mode, you may wish to use your system
- user.
+ $ sudo -u <kohauser> zebrasrv -f /etc/koha/koha-conf.xml
+ (note that the path to koha-conf.xml may be different if you chose a dev install, and that
+ <kohauser> refers to the user you set up in step 2.3)
- Zebraqueue Daemon:
- $ sudo -u ${KOHA_USER} misc/bin/zebraqueue_daemon.pl
+Note: the user you run Zebra as will be the only user with write permission
+ on the Zebra index; in development mode, you may wish to use your
+ system user.
- Note: if you are running in this mode, you may wish to defer starting the
- zebraqueue until you've run the web installer (see below).
-Option 2: run the Zebra processes as daemons, and add to startup process:
+6.1.2 Zebra Indexer
-Note that references to $SCRIPT_DIR refer to the directory where
-Koha's command-line scripts are installed, e.g., /usr/share/koha/bin.
+Added/updated/deleted records in Koha MySQL database must be indexed
+into Zebra. A specific script must be launched each time a bibliographic
+or an authority record is edited.
- Zebra Server:
- $ sudo ln -s ${SCRIPT_DIR}/koha-zebra-ctl.sh /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon
- (Note: ${SCRIPT_DIR} is /usr/share/koha/bin/ by default in a standard install)
+ $ sudo -u <kohauser> misc/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -z -b -a
+
+Note: This script should be run as the kohauser (the default is 'koha', but
+this is the user you set up in step 2.3).
+
+Option 2: run the Zebra process as a daemon (automatic indexing):
+
+Note: References to <script_dir> refer to the directory where
+ Koha's command-line scripts are installed, the path
+ is /usr/share/koha/bin/ by default in a standard install.
+
+6.2.1 Zebra Search Server
+
+ $ sudo ln -s <script_dir>/koha-zebra-ctl.sh /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon
+ (Note: <script_dir> is /usr/share/koha/bin/ by default in a standard install)
$ sudo update-rc.d koha-zebra-daemon defaults
- ( Note: see man chkconfig(8) on other distros )
+
+ $ sudo <script_dir>/koha-zebra-ctl.sh start
+ (Note: <script_dir> is /usr/share/koha/bin/ by default in a standard install)
+
+
+6.2.2 Zebra Indexer
+
+Add an entry in Koha user crontab to process scheduled added/updated/deleted records
+indexing by Zebra. <script_dir>cronjobs/crontab.example contains examples for these cron jobs (and many more).
+
+NOTE: The cronjobs should be setup under the kohauser (the default is 'koha', but
+this is the user you set up in step 2.3).
+
+Edit the crontab for the koha user by running
+ $ sudo -u <kohauser> crontab -e
+
+For Zebra indexing, you are looking for the example that begins with
- $ sudo ${SCRIPT_DIR}/koha-zebra-ctl.sh start
+ # ZEBRA INDEX UPDATES with -z option, incremental index updates throughout the day
+ # for both authorities and bibs
+
+It may be easiest to copy/paste the example into your own crontab and modify as necessary.
+
+
+7. What next?
+
+ Once the installer has completed, you can import and index MARC records from the
+ command line thusly (Note: you can also use the 'Stage MARC records for import' from
+ the Tools area of Koha's Staff Client to import a batch of MARC records):
+
+ $ export KOHA_CONF=/usr/share/koha/etc/koha-conf.xml
+ (note: use the correct path to your koha-conf.xml)
+
+7.1 Import:
+
+Bibliographic data in MARC21 format
+
+ $ misc/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl -file /path/to/marc.iso2709
+
+Authority data in MARC21 format
+
+ $ misc/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl -a -file /path/to/auth.iso2709
- Zebraqueue Daemon:
- $ sudo ln -s ${SCRIPT_DIR}/koha-zebraqueue-ctl.sh /etc/init.d/koha-zebraqueue-daemon
- $ sudo update-rc.d koha-zebraqueue-daemon defaults
- ( Note: see man chkconfig(8) on other distros )
+7.2 Fast Index:
+ $ misc/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -w
- $ sudo ${SCRIPT_DIR}/koha-zebraqueue-ctl.sh start
+ Once the indexing has completed, you will be able to search for records in your system.
+ NOTE: This script should be run as the kohauser (the default is 'koha', this is the user we set up in step 2.3).
-6. Run the Web Installer, populate the database, initial configuration of settings
+7.3 Schedule regular index updates
+ You need to run rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -z as a regular cron job in orde to pick up new bibs
+ and items as you add them. Check misc/cronjobs/crontab.example for usage examples. See 7.0 above.
+ NOTE: This job should be setup under the kohauser (the default is 'koha', this is the user we set up in step 2.3).
- Point your browser to http://<servername>:8080/
+7.4 To enable public Z39.50/SRU servers, you'll need to edit your koha-conf.xml and
+ change the <listen> options to listen on a TCP port; then restart the zebra daemon.
- It should redirect you to the Web installer where you can continue the setup.
+UPGRADE
+=======
+If you are running in another language other than english, please
+switch to english before doing the upgrade, the templating system has
+changed and the templates will need to be regenerated.
+Once you have upgraded, please regenerate your templates in your
+chosen languages.
+
+If you are upgrading from a previous installation of Koha 3.x, you can
+use the following:
+
+ ./koha_perl_deps.pl -u -m # to identify new Perl dependencies
+
+Install any missing modules
+IMPORTANT: Koha 3.6.x uses Template::Toolkit, this must be installed
+before the webinstaller can run
+
+ sudo apt-get install libtemplate-perl
+
+ perl Makefile.PL --prev-install-log /path/to/koha-install-log
+ make
+ make test
+ sudo make upgrade
+
+Koha 3.4.x or later no longer stores items in biblio records so
+if you upgrading from an old version as part of the
+upgrade you will need to do the following two steps, they can take a
+long time (several hours) to complete for large databases
+
+ misc/maintenance/remove_items_from_biblioitems.pl --run
+ misc/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -r
