Hi Dspace community, I'll be adding documentation here that outlines how to get Dspace 1.6.x up and running on a RHEL5 system emphasizing sustainability. (No small accomplishment.) The documentation is complete, but I need to translate from our internal documentation and wiki format to the format supported here. In the mean time feel free to email me any questions regarding this documentation or our build. --- Jamin Ragle, Systems Administrator, University of New Mexico Libraries |

Official Dspace 1.6 Install Documentation: http://www.dspace.org/1_6_0Documentation/ch03.html |
Assumptions
- Standard RHEL5 (32-bit) server. - This build/document assumes you are running RHEL5_, but it could possibly be adapted to a CentOS5 system._
- Additional RHN Channel Subscription -- RHEL Supplementary channel (v. 5 for 32-bit x86) - This is what provides a source for Sun Java updates. It is assumed you have a valid Red Hat Network account that you can manage your systems.
- Package Management - - All required software for DSpace is provided and managed using package management, in our case RPM's. It is assumed software from external repositories used get regular updates, are trusted as secure, and all packages are maintained regularly.

Goals: This build is targeted for resolving the dependency problems of the past between RHEL and JPackage, remove the 'dspace' user, and to install Dspace 1.6.2. The hardest issues to resolve are finding the prerequisite packages for Maven2 and Ant 1.7, resolving the dependencies, AND still use RPMs to maintain the packages. The following is my attempt to use an external repository (JPackage) with RHEL5 and the only unmaintained packages are Dspace itself and possibly the Java JAI. |
