setting up IIPImage Server

[Pietro Liuzzo]

Dear all,

I am starting to set up our project to use IIIF for our images. We have a nice collection of manuscripts from Ethiopia digitized in the past years. 

I have started to follow the guidance on the website but got stuck quite soon. I have installed IIPImage Server on my Ubuntu 14.04 and set it up on Nginx as the documentation says but I cannot manage to start it up from the command line, it says iipsrv.fcgi: command not found 

if I run the instruction pointing to the location of the executable it just does not do anything.

I fear I have omitted something obvious I should have done but I cannot figure out what that is.

Thanks a lot for any help

Sincerely yours

Pietro

Hi Pietro,

You need to be in your IIP Image 'src' directory and put a './' in front of the command:

./iipsrv.fcgi --bind 127.0.0.1:9000

You then need to make sure your nginx server configuration has the line:

fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;

When you get to the point of deploying it on a production server you will likely need to run iip with a FastCGI process manager. I usually use the python supervisor package; I will gladly share my configuration with you for that if you need it.

Other people use spawn-fcgi or the built-in systemd process managers.

Dear Andrew, 

thanks a lot! unfortunately I fail to find any src directory in my iipimage-server. I have iipsrv.fcgi in /usr/lib/iipimage-server after installing the package.

Thank you very much again!

Hi Pietro,

I don't know if this will be of use, but I blogged about setting up IIPImage on Ubuntu 14.04 some time ago here - http://circle-theory.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/jpeg2000-support-with-iipimage-iipsrv.html   - I know that some of the information in this is now out of date (the hardware acceleration parts, for example), but it might offer some pointers to help you.

Best,

Adam.

Hi Pietro,

You will then need to 'cd' to /usr/lib/iipimage-server and run the command. So ("$>" represents the prompt):

$> cd /usr/lib/iipimage-server
$> ./iipsrv.fcgi --bind 127.0.0.1:9000
