This how-to is an updated version of Peter DeitzDietz's installation guide. The purpose of this guide is to extend the ease and clarity of that instruction set to more modern installs.

sudo apt-get install tasksel sudo tasksel |
Select the following packages
| Code Block |
|---|
[*] LAMP server
[*] PostgreSQL database
[*] Tomcat Java server

You can try executing the commands which tasksel would have executed as separate statements: sudo tasksel install lamp-server sudo tasksel install tomcat-server sudo tasksel install postgresql-server |
Install the Compile / Build tools

sudo apt-get install ant maven2maven |

sudo vi /etc/postgresql/9.3/main/pg_hba.conf
# Add this line to the configuration:
local all dspace md5
# Comment out any lines that have "peer" at the end of them
# When done, restart postgresql:
sudo service postgresql restart |

sudo vi /etc/tomcat7/server.xml # Insert the following chunk of text just above the closing </Host> <!-- Define a new context path for all DSpace web apps --> <Context path="/xmlui" docBase="/dspace/webapps/xmlui" allowLinking="true"/> <Context path="/sword" docBase="/dspace/webapps/sword" allowLinking="true"/> <Context path="/oai" docBase="/dspace/webapps/oai" allowLinking="true"/> <Context path="/jspui" docBase="/dspace/webapps/jspui" allowLinking="true"/> <Context path="/lni" docBase="/dspace/webapps/lni" allowLinking="true"/> <Context path="/solr" docBase="/dspace/webapps/solr" allowLinking="true"/> |
Download and Install DSpace

| Code Block |

sudo mkdir /dspace
cd /dspace |
Download the
...
Release
The source release allows you to customize every aspect of DSpace. This step downloads the compressed archive from SourceForge, and unpacks it in your current directory. The dspace-1.x.x-src-release directory is typically referred to as [dspace-src].
| Code Block |

sudo git clone https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace.git (apt-get install git if you don't already have it) # Now, actually checkout the 4.2 codebase via the 'dspace-4.2' tag. There's two options, CHOOSE ONE # Option #1: Checkout the official 'dspace-4.2' tag into a new local branch (which we've named "dspace-source") cd sudo git checkout -b dspace-source dspace-4.2 # Option #2: Just checkout the "dspace-4_x" maintenance branch. This will essentially include all the latest patches on 4.x sudo git checkout dspace-4_x |
Compile and Build DSpace
The source release that has been obtained is human readable source code, and must be compiled to machine code for the server to run it. "mvn package" compiles the source code, and "ant" will do all the work necessary to initialize the database with the DSpace schema, and copy all of the compiled machine code to a location where the web server can serve it. This will overwrite any existing installation of DSpace that you may have.
| Info |
|---|
make sure all your dependencies are in order, and you're running maven 3.x. (Check this version with mvn -v). If not, run these commands: sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdkmaven sudo apt-get install mavenremove maven2 |
Now run these:
| Code Block |
|---|
sudo apt-get remove maven2 |
| Code Block |
install openjdk-7-jdk cd DSpace sudo mvn package (this step takes a long time) cd dspace/target/dspace-4.3-SNAPSHOT-build.dirinstaller sudo ant fresh_install |
