Installing CUFTS & Godot on Ubuntu

These instructions are currently for Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin)

Prerequisites

 apt-get install subversion unzip zip build-essential cpanminus lynx ncftp ftp apache2 apache2-mpm-prefork postgresql postgresql-client postgresql-contrib postgresql-server-dev-all libapache2-mod-perl2 libxml-dom-perl libclass-accessor-perl libclass-dbi-perl libexception-class-perl libexception-class-dbi-perl libtemplate-perl libcatalyst-perl libperl6-export-attrs-perl libclass-dbi-sweet-perl libclass-dbi-plugin-abstractcount-perl libclass-dbi-plugin-type-perl libmarc-record-perl libdatetime-perl libdate-calc-perl libmime-lite-perl libunicode-string-perl libdatetime-format-natural-perl libhtml-fillinform-perl libdata-formvalidator-perl libcatalyst-modules-extra-perl libstring-approx-perl libmarc-charset-perl libdata-uuid-libuuid-perl libdatetime-format-iso8601-perl libnet-ldap-perl libhtml-strip-perl libdbix-class-timestamp-perl libbusiness-isbn-perl libapache-dbi-perl libapache-session-perl libnet-z3950-zoom-perl libparallel-forkmanager-perl libtext-template-perl libmarc-xml-perl libbusiness-issn-perl libxml-parser-lite-tree-perl libyaz4-dev liblist-compare-perl libdbix-class-encodedcolumn-perl

Additional Perl Modules

 * Use your favorite Perl package manager to install the following, we're using cpanm
 cpanm -i Class::DBI::Plugin::CountSearch String::Util Data::UUID Biblio::COUNTER Chart::OFC URI::OpenURL Catalyst::Plugin::FillInForm XML::RAI Text::Striphigh Catalyst::Plugin::FormValidator Catalyst::View::Download::CSV Class::DBI::Plugin::FastDelete Template::Plugin::JSON

Postgres

  • Make sure local users have access to the postgres database. Depending on your setup, you may need to tighten these permissions. Edit /etc/postgresql/9.1/main/pg_hba.conf (your version number may differ) and change these two lines to from peer and md5 to trust
 # "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
 #local   all             all                                     peer
 local   all             all                                     trust
 # IPv4 local connections:
 #host    all             all             127.0.0.1/32            md5
 host    all             all             127.0.0.1/32            trust

  • Restart Postgres
 /etc/init.d/postgresql restart

  • Create an empty database
 su postgres
 cd
 createdb CUFTS3

  • Create some users and grant some permissions within postgres (note you are still the linux postgres user)
 psql
 create user root;
 alter role root with superuser;
 alter role root with createrole;
 alter role root with createdb;
 create user "www-data";
 alter role "www-data" with superuser;
 alter role "www-data" with createrole;
 alter role "www-data" with createdb;
 \q
 exit

CUFTS Installation

  • Download CUFTS
 svn co http://lib-code.lib.sfu.ca/svn/CUFTS/trunk/CUFTS /usr/local/CUFTS
 cd usr/local/CUFTS

Pre-installation Fixes

  • Edit /usr/local/CUFTS/CRDB/cufts_crdb.yml that happens to have the db user hard coded and set it to www-data
 	connect_info:
 			- 'dbi:Pg:dbname=CUFTS3'
 			- 'www-data'
 			- ''
 			- AutoCommit: 1

  • Edit /usr/local/CUFTS/lib/CUFTS/AdvancedConfig.pm', replace all instances of http://localhost:3000 with your server address (remove the :3000) ie. http://server.institution.edu

Dependency Check

  • CUFTS provides a relatively accurate preflight script. Depending on how out of date this document is, you may have additional perl modules to install.
 perl util/install.pl -m

Installation

  • Run the installer.
 perl util/install.pl

  • You can accept the defaults for most options, you'll probably want to adjust the following:
 CUFTS Database user: tholbroo
 [tholbroo]: www-data
 ...
 Mail should be from: 
 []: [email protected]
 ...
 User which the web server runs as?
 [nobody]: www-data
 ...
 Is your web server running Apache 1.3.x w/ mod_perl?
 [Y/n]: n
 Is your web server running Apache 2.0.x w/ mod_perl 2.x?
 [Y/n]: y
 ...
 Drop database?
 [y/N]: y

  • Ignore the note about adding an include to your apache config, do this instead, it's much more Ubuntu
 ln -s /usr/local/CUFTS/util/httpd.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d/cufts.conf

  • Restart Apache
 service apache2 restart

Initial Data Load

 perl util/import_global_sync.pl /path/to/the/file/you/downloaded

Server Access

  • You should now be able to access the CUFTS Admin via the following url. The username and password are admin
 http://server.institution.edu/CUFTS/MaintTool

Periodic Tasks

CUFTS needs various scripts to run nightly. update_cjdb.pl will check for changes from the administrative interface and rebuild the database as necessary. In addition it's good practice to rebuild your journal authority and title lists nightly.

  • Here is the script we call nightly via cron:
 echo "==============Build Journal Auth=============="
 /usr/bin/perl util/build_journals_auth.pl
 
 echo "==============Updating Titles=============="
 /usr/bin/perl util/title_list_updater.pl

  • In addition, you will want to update your knowlegebase monthly. New knowledgebases are usually released on the first of the month, but occationally there are issue with the first release and it is safer to wait a few days. You should download the most recent knowledgebase update (not complete) and then run:
 perl util/import_global_sync.pl /path/to/downloaded/file
