SUNScholar/Rebuild DSpace

Log into your server and type the following:

su - dspace

mkdir /home/dspace/scripts

nano /home/dspace/scripts/build-webapps

Tip: It is always a good idea to maximise the open nano window so that the copy and paste of long lines does not wrap around.

Copy and paste the following into the open nano editor.

#!/bin/bash
echo "Stop Tomcat server"
sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat6 stop
echo "Clean out old webapps"
sudo rm -rf /home/dspace/webapps/*
echo "Start MAVEN package"
cd /home/dspace/dspace-1.6.2-src-release
mvn package -U clean package
echo "Start Ant update"
cd /home/dspace/dspace-1.6.2-src-release/dspace/target/dspace-1.6.2-build.dir
ant -Doverwrite=true update clean_backups
echo "Start tomcat server"
sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat6 start
echo "******************************************************************************"
echo "Remember to redeploy if there are changes to the default Tomcat ROOT interface"
echo "******************************************************************************"

Save the file.

Type the following:

chmod 0755 /home/dspace/scripts/build-webapps

Now you can rebuild Dspace by typing the following at anytime.

/home/dspace/scripts/build-webapps
