In fact it's easier to run in Ubuntu than it is in CentOS.<br>
<br>
RedHat (and hence CentOS) never did manage to get SQLite working
with PHP, so you have to use an entire great MySQL installation to
provide the database support. In Ubuntu you can just use SQLite
which is enormously easier, lighter and faster for my purposes.<br>
<br>
And also RedHat/CentOS 5 cannot do the PHP stuff required to make
the progress bar work, unless you upgrade to PHP5.2 from a 3rd
party, which is yet more messing around. Ubuntu is much more up to
date, so none of that is needed.<br>
<br>
But I live in a RedHat shop too, which is why I built the CentOS
version in the first place. It will never get adopted by our campus
IT guys unless it runs on RedHat. They "don't do" Ubuntu, whereas in
Electronics and Computer Science (where I work), we use the best
tool for the job, regardless of whether everyone knows how to admin
it or not. The ones that don't learn! :-)<br>

The target host is running 64-bit but it's 'only' an AMD NEO dual
core chip so burdening it with a VM too is something I hoped to
avoid. Personally, I'd use CentOS, but in my new role I have an IT
Director above me and he's welded to Ubuntu!<br>
<br>
All the best.<br>

distribute it as a VM, so you don't have to do all this
stuff by hand (it's quite a long list of instructions). But
from my notes on building the VMs, here are what I have to
say on the subject. For starters, do this on a 64-bit build
of Ubuntu, not 32-bit, or you will be limited to 2 Gbyte
uploads due to limitations in PHP. You still have to rebuild
the Apache PHP library with some code edits to get past the
2 Gbyte upload limit, but at least in 64-bit it can be done.
I will leave out all the stuff to do with https, as you can
add that later yourself (and it's on the website
Documentation page).<br>
<br>
Here we go.....<br>
<br>
Install Ubuntu 10 server 64-bit<br>
Partition manually.<br>
Part 1 = primary 2.0 GB swap at beginning of disk<br>
Part 2 = primary max / ext4 bootable<br>
Install security updates automatically.<br>
Software selection: Basic, LAMP, OpenSSH.<br>
Install GRUB in master boot record.<br>
<br>
Remove CD/DVD and reboot.<br>
<br>
SSH in remotely, stop using console.<br>
<br>
sudo su -<br>
<br>
This chunk rebuilds the Apache PHP5 library so that uploads
can be more than 2 Gbytes.<br>

Unpack all the source under /opt/ZendTo-3.63.<br>
Build all the source code owned by root.root under
/opt/zendto,<br>
making /opt/ZendTo-3.63 the real dir with /opt/zendto a
symlink to it.<br>
<br>
Basically, the web server must be able to write into the
directories cache and templates_c (ignore the MyZendTo stuff
for now, that's a slightly different project that ships with
ZendTo). And the web server must be able to read everything
else.<br>
cd /opt/zendto<br>
chown -R www-data cache *templates_c<br>
chgrp -R www-data cache *templates_c<br>
chmod -R ug+rwX cache *templates_c<br>
chmod -R o+rX *<br>
<br>
service apache2 restart<br>
<br>
Load the home page of the new website in a web browser.<br>
Click on the "About" button.<br>
That will create the database.<br>
<br>
Login and "sudo su -" to get root access.<br>
<br>
cd /opt/zendto/sbin<br>
php rrdInit.php /opt/zendto/config/preferences.php<br>
Ignore any "PHP Notice" output from that.<br>
<br>
Then start setting up the authentication in
/opt/zendto/config/preferences.php. If you are using AD or
LDAP then play with "ldapsearch" until you can get it to
read users' information, and then you will have the right
strings to put into preferences.php.<br>
<br>
If you are going to use the "Local" authentication to start
with, then look in /opt/zendto/bin for all the commands
required to add and edit the user table. It *never* stores
plain-text passwords, don't worry!<br>
<br>
Customise the user interface with
/opt/zendto/config/zendto.conf. If you want to make bigger
changes, then it's all templated in /opt/zendto/templates.<br>
<br>
Hopefully that will get you started.<br>
Do you see why I distribute it as a pre-built VM now? :-)<br>
<br>
Jules.

I'm looking to install ZendTo on a Ubuntu server so I
have to start with the tar version. I've unpacked it
and now deeply missing the comfort of an install.sh a

<br>
I've checked the docs on site and as supplied in the
tar file but can't see where to dive in. Any pointers
appreciated.<br>

Thanks<br>
