- [</path/to/downloaded/app>]$ make pydeps

- Copy etc/httpd/conf.d/metrilyx.conf to your webservers config directory.

- Set the permissions to /opt/metrilyx to the appropriate web user 

- Edit the configuration (more below).

- Restart the webserver.

Notes

  • The default username and password for the site are admin and password respectively. These should almost never be required and are specifically needed by the REST interface.
  • If you would like to change the password, change to the application installation directory. Remove the file called metrilyx.sqlite3 and run python manage.py syncdb. This should prompt you to create a new admin user. Type 'yes', and follow the prompts to create a new username and password.
