Installing ATOM on windows 7, WAMP 2.4+, using Apache server

[Tosin C. Olapade]

I am Chris (BSc, MLIS), I am happy to report to you that I installed
your earlier version of ica-atom on my system successfully, but many
errors were generated when I tried installing the 2.0 version.
I am running on Windows 7 and Apache server, I have used both WAMP 2.0 and 2.4
successfully for ica-atom 1.3.1 but not successful in installing the
version 2.0. The errors are as follows.

1.   It reported that my WAMP server 2.4 did not support elastic search.
2.   I tried to by pass the elasstic search step, but after installing
it, but another error blocked it after the installation process wasn
completed.

Please, can you tell me what is responsible for the errors. I urgently
need your assistance and suggestion. Thanks

Hi Chris,

Thanks for posting to the User Forum.

AtoM community members - Christ and I spoke off-list, and I encouraged him to post here in the hopes that others who have installed AtoM 2 using WAMP might offer some suggestions to him. As you know, Artefactual uses Ubuntu and Nginx in production and development, and we are not able to test and document all possible installation environments. We rely on active and engaged community members (like you!) to help share information about other configurations.

I have pointed Chris to previous posts with some suggestions about implementing WAMP  - for example, in this post and this follow-up one, I have rounded up links to previous comments made by users about WAMP installations that might help. Chris, have you had a chance to try any of the suggestions in those threads?

Can anyone on this list offer some suggestions on how they have made WAMP and AtoM 2 play well together?

Thanks!

Hi Chris,

ElasticSearch is a required service for AtoM 2 to work, as all our search capabilities rely on it. So if you skip that step it's sure to break elsewhere...

I suggest trying this Windows Installer for ElasticSearch... http://ruilopes.com/elasticsearch-setup/

Also, this seems to have a lot of discussion on getting ElasticSearch to work on Windows: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8760696/running-elastic-search-as-a-windows-service

Hope this helps,

cheers
