The following wiki pages describe the procedures to install a "vanilla" DSpace instance using an Ubuntu 10.04 LTS server as we did for our SUNScholar server.

Please click here to find out why Ubuntu was selected as the server platform.

If you intend to use these wiki pages for an installation workshop on your campus, then make sure each computer and server has open and unrestricted access to the internet.

We are currently investigating using cloud services to provision repository systems. Click here to find out how the investigation is going.

It is essential that you follow the procedures step-by-step !

Procedure 1: Install Ubuntu

Procedure 2: Prepare Ubuntu

Procedure 3: Install DSpace

Warning:
If you use the above procedures to setup a production machine open to the Internet, then ensure the following.

  1. Change ALL instances of the default "dspace" password to a very secure secret password.
  2. Change ALL instances of the default "dspace" username to another username, except for the main Ubuntu "dspace" account created during the server installation.

You have been warned !
