Dear

Dear Ramon,

Thanks for your posting. I am glad to inform you that very soon DlnetSA will be releasing live CD of Koha, GSDL and Dspace embedded with VuFind. This release will help the user to choose either GSDL or Dspace for mash-up GSDL and D-Space  for their collection development as per their convenience.

With regards,

Sincerely yours,

Mohan Raj Pradhan
General Secretary

    Greetings!
     
    I managed to install DSpace in a GSDLKoha instance in our development
    server.
     
    I posted my modified installation here - http://digitallibraryservices.blogspot.com/
     
    For those who are interested I will paste it here. Apologies for the
    long post.
     
    Installing Dspace on GSDLKoha LiveCD
     
    I followed the installation notes in the DuraSpace wiki on Installing
    DSpace 1.7.2 on Ubuntu. https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Installation
     
    The following is a modified version of that installation to address
    the bumps and mishaps along the way.
     
    Install the server stack of Tomcat (web server) and PostgreSQL
    (database)
     
    sudo apt-get install tasksel
     
    sudo tasksel
     
    Select the following packages (select and click spacebar)
    [*] LAMP server
    [*] PostgreSQL database
    [*] Tomcat Java server
     
    Install the Compile / Build tools
    sudo apt-get install ant maven2
     
    Create the database user (dspace)
     
    sudo su postgres
    createuser -U postgres -d -A -P dspace
    exit
     
    Allow the database user (dspace) to connect to the database
     
    sudo vi /etc/postgresql/9.1/main/pg_hba.conf
     
    # Add this line to the configuration:
    local all dspace md5
     
    sudo service postgresql restart
     
    Create the dspace database
     
    createdb -U dspace -E UNICODE dspace
     
    Configure Tomcat to know about the DSpace webapps.
    sudo vi /etc/tomcat6/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
     
    Create the [dspace] directory.The [dspace] directory is where the
    running dspace code will reside.
    sudo mkdir /dspace
     
    Change the ownership and permissions of the [dspace] directory from
    the Ubuntu user (currently logged in) to the Tomcat user created by
    the installation process using taskskel.
    To know/set/change the default tomcat user sudo vi /etc/tomcat6/tomcat-
    users.xml
    chown -R <Ubuntu-user>:<tomcat-user> /dspace
    chmod -R 775 /dspace
     
    Download the Source 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].
     
    cd /dspace
    wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/dspace/files/DSpace%20Stable/1.8.2/dspace-1.8.2-src-release.tar.bz2
    tar -xvjf dspace-1.8.2-src-release.tar.bz2
     
    edit DSpace configuration particularly the database user and password
    before compiling. You can also make other changes (email, port
    number ...)
     
    sudo vi /dspace/config/dspace.cfg
     
    ##### Basic information ######
     
    # DSpace installation directory
    dspace.dir = /dspace
     
    # DSpace host name - should match base URL. Do not include port
    number
    dspace.hostname = localhost
     
    # DSpace base host URL. Include port number etc.
    dspace.baseUrl = http://localhost:8080
     
    # DSpace base URL. Include port number etc., but NOT trailing slash
    # Change to xmlui if you wish to use the xmlui as the default, or
    remove
    # "/jspui" and set webapp of your choice as the "ROOT" webapp in
    # the servlet engine.
    dspace.url = ${dspace.baseUrl}/xmlui
     
    # Name of the site
    dspace.name = DSpace at My University (name or Title of Your
    Repository)
     
    ##### Database settings #####
     
    # Database name ("oracle", or "postgres")
    db.name = postgres
    #db.name = postgres
    #db.name = oracle
     
    # URL for connecting to database
    db.url = jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/dspace
    #db.url = jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/dspace
     
    # JDBC Driver
    db.driver = org.postgresql.Driver
    #db.driver = org.postgresql.Driver
     
    # Database username and password
    db.username = dspace
    db.password = (password you gave to dspace [database user])
    #db.username = dspace
    #db.password = dspace
     
    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. ant fresh_install will populate the dspace database
    and [dspace] directory with new information. This will overwrite any
    existing installation of DSpace that you may have. For upgrades the
    better command to use would be ant update, as it doesn't alter the
    database or modify your assetstore.
     
    cd dspace-1.8.2-src-release
    mvn -U -e package (-e will show errors if there are any)
     
    I encountered three errors that I have to fix before it can compile.
    There were files reported missing.
    1) org.apache.zookeeper:zookeeper:jar:3.3.1
    2) org.codehaus.woodstox:wstx-asl:jar:3.2.7
    I tried downloading it from their website and installed it manually.
    It didn't work, I guess because of version incompatibilty. Apache
    zookeeper 3.3.1 is no longer avaiable on the website so I used another
    version, which resulted reading /compilation error during build.
     
    I solved this by searching and downloading the files from a Maven
    repository http://mvnrepository.com/
    wget http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/zookeeper/zookeeper/3.3.1/zookeeper-3.3.1.jar
    wget http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/codehaus/woodstox/wstx-asl/3.2.7/wstx-asl-3.2.7.jar
     
    Then I installed it using Maven (note that in my case the downloaded
    file is in /dspace) change the path-to-file to point it to the right
    directory if you placed the download in a different directory
    mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=org.apache.zookeeper -
    DartifactId=zookeeper -Dversion=3.3.1 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/dspace/
    zookeeper-3.3.1.jar
    mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=org.codehaus.woodstox -
    DartifactId=wstx-asl -Dversion=3.2.7 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/dspace/
    wstx-asl-3.2.9.jar
     
    Run this code to check for any unresolved dependency (found another
    one missing)
    mvn dependency:list
     
    Misssing file
    1) com.yahoo.platform.yui:yuicompressor:jar:2.3.6
     
    To resolve download manually and install
    wget http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/yahoo/platform/yui/yuicompressor/2.3.6/yuicompressor-2.3.6.jar
    mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.yahoo.platform.yui -
    DartifactId=yuicompressor -Dversion=2.3.6 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/
    dspace/yuicompressor-2.3.6.jar
     
    Compile using Maven
    mvn -U -e package
     
    if successful compile you would see this at the terminal
    [INFO] BUILD SUCCESSFUL
    [INFO]
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Build using Ant
    cd dspace/target/dspace-1.8.2-build.dir
    sudo ant fresh_install
     
    if successful
    [echo] The DSpace code has been installed, and the database
    initialized.
    [echo]
    [echo] To complete installation, you should do the following:
    [echo]
    [echo] * Setup your Web servlet container (e.g. Tomcat) to look
    for your
    [echo] DSpace web applications in: /dspace/webapps/
    [echo]
    [echo] OR, copy any web applications from /dspace/webapps/ to
    [echo] the appropriate place for your servlet container.
    [echo] (e.g. '$CATALINA_HOME/webapps' for Tomcat)
    [echo]
    [echo] * Make an initial administrator account (an e-person) in
    DSpace:
    [echo]
    [echo] /dspace/bin/dspace create-administrator
    [echo]
    [echo] * Start up your servlet container (Tomcat etc.)
    [echo]
    [echo] You should then be able to access your DSpace's 'home
    page':
    [echo]
    [echo] http://localhost:8080/xmlui
    [echo]
    [echo] You should also be able to access the administrator UI:
    [echo]
    [echo] http://localhost:8181/xmlui/dspace-admin
    [echo]
    ====================================================================
    [echo]
     
    BUILD SUCCESSFUL
    Total time: 29 seconds
     
    Restart the Tomcat server
    This guide follows the convention where the tomcat user will own all
    of the files in [dspace], so we have to change the owner of the files
    to tomcat6. Restarting tomcat will deploy the dspace webapps that are
    now ready to be viewed.
     
    sudo chown tomcat6:tomcat6 /dspace -R
     
    sudo service tomcat6 restart
     
    Test it out in your browser
    That is all that is required to install DSpace on Ubuntu. There are
    two main webapps that provide a similar turn-key repository interface
     
    http://localhost:8080/xmlui
     
    http://localhost:8080/jspui
     
    Create Administrator
     
    cd /dspace/bin
    sudo ./dspace create-administrator
     
    (prompt would look like)
    Creating an initial administrator account
    E-mail address: <your email>
    First name: <your name>
    Last name: <last name>
    WARNING: Password will appear on-screen.
    Password: <your password>
    Again to confirm: <your password>
    Is the above data correct? (y or n): y
    Administrator account created
    ***@***:/dspace/bin$
     
    It is now time to tinker with the configuration and administration of
    my new Dspace 1.8.2.
    Next project creation of integrated GSDLKoha + DSpace LiveCD iso.

Dear Mohan,

That is wonderful news. I am looking forward to it.

I will put my project to create GSDLKoha + DSpace on hold.

Thanks!

Ramon
