  • Java Installer: LSC-2.1.jar This installer do not require a JOnAS installation, only an access to a PostgreSQL>7.4 database and a JDK>1.5.

  • To run it just type: java -jar LSC-2.1.jar. - You can watch the installation demo. This demo shows how to run the installer, start the Libresource server and bootstrap the server...
  • Installation from the Installer limitation
    • Database: The connection to the database MUST BE with a user "demo" with a blank password. The database name must be libresource too. (This is related to the preconfigured Single Sign On module of LibreSource. This limitation does not exist for an installation made from the Sources.)
    • Host name: The host name should be localhost regarding the different keystore made in the installer for the SSL connection to the CAS server. This can be changed after the installation by changing the setting of the Libresource host and regenerate all the keystore needed for CAS and it's SSL access. This procedure have been documented in the README of the source package. (After any change of libresource configuration parameter, the configure script must be run in order to propagate those changes.)
  • After running the installer, go in your installation directory and run start.sh.
  • Once the Libresource server launched, you can bootstrap the libresource server with your browser : by default http://localhost:9000.
  • To bootstrap the server, you must first create the root user.
  • Then go on platform home and upload the bootstrap file located in <install dir>/LibreSource/Resources/bootstrap.xml
  • The server is ready to use. *Caution* If postgres and Libresource do not run with the same user, you have to make a "chmod -R 755 <install dir>/Work".
