== Requirements

* CentOS 5.2 (recommended)
* Ruby Enterprise Edition (http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/41040/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810.tar.gz)
* Ruby on Rails 2.1 higher
* Sphinx 0.9.8 or higher (http://sphinxsearch.com/downloads/sphinx-0.9.8.tar.gz)
* HTTrack (http://download.httrack.com/cserv.php3?File=httrack.tar.gz)

== Requirements installation

1. Install CentOS 5.2

A detailed overview of the install is beyond the scope of this document but a
base install plus the development packages should be sufficient for getting 
started. This document was written using CentOS 5.2 64-bit.

Note: Be sure to set the operating system time zone to UTC or the backround job
processing will not work properly.

Note: Be sure to setuid the mount.cifs and umount.cifs commands or the
background job processin will not work properly.

	# chmod +s /sbin/mount.cifs
	# chmod +s /sbin/umount.cifs

2. Install Ruby Enterprise Edition

Ruby Enterprise Edition requires MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite development
libraries, so be sure to install them first.

	# yum install mysql-devel
	# yum install postgresql-devel
	# yum install sqlite-devel
	
For some operating systems it also requires "standard" Ruby be installed as
a limited number of light-weight interpreters are included.

	# yum install ruby

After unpacking the Ruby Enterprise Edition package, run the installer. Be
sure to read all of the instructions and follow the prompts. In most cases,
the defaults are fine to use.

RubyGems and Ruby on Rails will be installed automatically along with several
dependancy gems (mysql, etc.).

	# ./ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/installer
	
Now that Ruby Enterprise Edition is installed we don't need "standard" Ruby.
Remove the "standard" Ruby so it doesn't cause any conflicts.

	# yum uninstall ruby
	
Make some symlinks for convenience.

	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/erb /usr/bin/erb
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/gem /usr/bin/gem
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/irb /usr/bin/irb
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/rackup /usr/bin/rackup
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/rails /usr/bin/rails
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/rake /usr/bin/rake
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/rdoc /usr/bin/rdoc
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/ri /usr/bin/ri
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/ruby /usr/bin/ruby
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/testrb /usr/bin/testrb

3. Install Apache and Passenger (mod_rails) gem

	# yum install httpd
	# yum install httpd-devel
	# gem install passenger
	
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/passenger-config /usr/bin/passenger-config
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/passenger-install-apache2-module /usr/bin/passenger-install-apache2-module
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/passenger-make-enterprisey /usr/bin/passenger-make-enterprisey
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/passenger-m /usr/bin/passenger-memory-stats
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/passenger-memory-stats /usr/bin/passenger-memory-stats
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/passenger-spawn-server /usr/bin/passenger-spawn-server
	# ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/passenger-stress-test /usr/bin/passenger-stress-test
	
	# passenger-install-apache2-module

	Create a file at /etc/httpd/conf.d/passenger.conf with the following lines:

		LoadModule passenger_module /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/passenger-2.0.3/ext/apache2/mod_passenger.so
		  PassengerRoot /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/passenger-2.0.3
		  PassengerRuby /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20080810/bin/ruby

		NameVirtualHost *:80

		<VirtualHost *:80>
		  ServerName elocker.microsoft.com
		  DocumentRoot "/var/www/rails/elocker/public"
		  RailsEnv development
		  RailsAllowModRewrite off
		  <directory "/var/www/rails/elocker/public">
		    Order allow,deny
		    Allow from all
		  </directory>
		</VirtualHost>

 	** Be sure to modify any configuration directives to fit your installation. **

4. Install MySQL

	# yum install mysql
	# yum install mysql-server
	
	# /etc/init.d/mysqld start
	# mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password'
	# mysqladmin -u root -p create elocker_production
	
5. Install other required gems

	# gem install ruby-debug
	
6. Install Sphinx (full-text search engine)

	# ./configure --prefix=/opt/local
	# make
	# make install
	
7. Install HTTrack

	# ./configure --prefix=/opt/local
	# make
	# make install
	
8. Install Evidence Locker and configure

	# mkdir /var/www/rails
	# chmod -R 777 /var/www/rails
	# cd /var/www/rails
	# tar xvfz elocker-xxx.tar.gz
	# cd elocker

If you are migrating from an older version of Evidence Locker, be sure to run
the migration task. This migration may take a long time depending on the
number of items in the database.
	
	# rake elocker:migrate_to_2_dot_0
	
Migrate the database to add any additional changes to the database.
	
	# rake db:migrate
	
Generate a new index for full-text searching.

	# rake ts:config
	# rake ts:index
	# rake ts:start
