kados: are you about? |

|
alex |
hey anyone able to give me assistance with CVS? |
| 04:21 |
|
alex |
I did a checkout -r rel_2_2 koha which I think is right? |
| 04:22 |
|
alex |
but the files in there are layed out completely different to a 2.2.5 tarball |
| 04:23 |
|
chris |
yep they certainly are |
| 04:24 |
|
chris |
there is a script called buildrelease that builds the tarball structure |
| 04:24 |
|
alex |
do I need to do that to install from, or can I work from the CVS layout |
| 04:26 |
|
chris |
what are you wanting to do? |
| 04:27 |
|
alex |
Just looking at the first part of the install script, it is trying to work out the domainname/hostname |
| 04:27 |
|
alex |
trying to package it |
| 04:27 |
|
chris |
hmm, there is a 2.2.6 tarball on savannah |
| 04:27 |
|
alex |
so probably during the packing the install script will run |
| 04:27 |
|
alex |
really? when did that come out? |
| 04:27 |
|
chris |
or you could make one .. the installer.pl expects the structure |
| 04:28 |
|
alex |
is it an rc? |
| 04:28 |
|
alex |
ok |
| 04:28 |
|
chris |
not sure, paul is the release manager for 2.2.6 |
| 04:28 |
|
chris |
he may have just not done an announcement |
| 04:29 |
|
alex |
it wasn't announced from my browse of the website |
| 04:29 |
|
chris |
nope, he would have down a mail to the list, but i see the topic of #koha |
| 04:29 |
|
alex |
also the wiki seems somewhat outdated, had trouble finding pointers to savanah CVS |
| 04:30 |
|
alex |
yes saw that |
| 04:30 |
|
alex |
not sure how to see the channel topic again, no irc wizz |
| 04:31 |
|
chris |
type /topic |
| 04:32 |
|
chris |
ahh that will be why no announcement, musta been a bug in 2.2.6 |
| 04:33 |
|
alex |
thanks, found the topic |
| 04:35 |
|
alex |
I'll probably run buildrelease from my checkout and go from there |
| 04:37 |
|
alex |
mjray offered to give me an overview of the install script, so I'll mail (him?) and arrange a time |
| 04:38 |
|
alex |
basically I need to know the extent of system specific stuff the install script does |
| 04:38 |
|
alex |
eg. embedding hostname or other system specific stuff in scripts |
| 04:41 |
|
chris |
right |
| 04:42 |
|
alex |
my assumption would be that configuration/customisation that the install script does would be restricted mainly to /etc |
| 04:42 |
|
alex |
not affecting random perl files |
| 04:49 |
|
chris |
yep it pretty much is |
| 04:49 |
|
alex |
cool |
| 04:49 |
|
chris |
it makes a /etc/koha.conf and koha-httpd.conf |
| 04:49 |
|
chris |
all the rest is done in the database |
| 04:50 |
|
alex |
does install set up the database? |
| 04:50 |
|
chris |
yep |
| 04:50 |
|
chris |
it does everything |
| 04:50 |
|
chris |
installer.pl that is |
| 04:50 |
|
alex |
does it generate an SQL for the admin to load? |
| 04:50 |
|
chris |
nope |
| 04:50 |
|
chris |
installer.pl does it all |
| 04:51 |
|
chris |
makes the db, loads the sql etc |
| 04:51 |
|
alex |
IIRC there was a file i neded to change with an SQL template, used ty installer.pl perhaps? |
| 04:51 |
|
alex |
i had to chagnge it to quote return |
| 04:51 |
|
chris |
updatedatabase it uses, and a sql file |
| 04:52 |
|
chris |
but mj was reworking it, so i dont know what his plan was |
| 04:52 |
|
alex |
ok |
| 04:53 |
|
alex |
I'll have to split that part of the install out of installer.pl |
| 04:53 |
|
alex |
or do my own install routine |
| 04:53 |
|
chris |
i think thats what he was doing |
| 04:53 |
|
chris |
so id check with him |
| 04:54 |
|
alex |
ok |
| 06:12 |
|
alex |
/quit |
