SUNScholar/Install DSpace/S06

NEXT - STEP 7

Step 6. Compile the DSpace Java webapp

Change directory to the build directory by typing as follows:

Replace all instances of XXX with the DSpace version number selected for installation.

cd $HOME/source/dspace/target/dspace-XXX-build

Type the following in the above named directory:

ant fresh_install

A lot of information now appears on the screen. Below are shown the last lines confirming success:

     [java] Started: 1349777373408
     [java] Ended: 1349777373778
     [java] Elapsed time: 0 secs (370 msecs)
     [echo] 
     [echo] ====================================================================
     [echo]  The DSpace code has been installed, and the database initialized.
     [echo] 
     [echo]  To complete installation, you should do the following:
     [echo] 
     [echo]  * Setup your Web servlet container (e.g. Tomcat) to look for your
     [echo]    DSpace web applications in: $HOME/webapps/
     [echo] 
     [echo]    OR, copy any web applications from $HOME/webapps/ to
     [echo]    the appropriate place for your servlet container.
     [echo]    (e.g. '$CATALINA_HOME/webapps' for Tomcat)
     [echo] 
     [echo]  * Make an initial administrator account (an e-person) in DSpace:
     [echo] 
     [echo]    $HOME/bin/dspace create-administrator
     [echo] 
     [echo]  * Start up your servlet container (Tomcat etc.)
     [echo] 
     [echo]  You should then be able to access your DSpace's 'home page':
     [echo] 
     [echo]    http://bibj-lt-hgibson.sun.ac.za
     [echo] 
     [echo]  You should also be able to access the administrator UI:
     [echo] 
     [echo]    http://bibj-lt-hgibson.sun.ac.za/dspace-admin
     [echo] ====================================================================
     [echo]         

BUILD SUCCESSFUL

Please note: If you change anything later then rebuild your DSpace. Do not run "ant fresh_install" again, this is only done once during installation.
