Note: Software listed is available on the MAP Support repository on Trogdor.mit.edu.

  1. Download the following files from the MAP Support repository onto the system being setup: 
    cd /root
scp root@trogdor:/opt/software-repository-tmp/ZEND_Core/ZendCore-2.5.0-linux-glibc21-i386.tar.gz \
   root@trogdor:/opt/software-repository-tmp/Java/jdk-6-linux-i586.bin  \
   root@trogdor:/opt/software-repository-tmp/Java/java_home.sh   \
   root@trogdor:/opt/software-repository-tmp/MySQL/MySQL-client-community-5.0.45-0.rhel5.i386.rpm  \
   root@trogdor:/opt/software-repository-tmp/MySQL/MySQL-server-community-5.0.45-0.rhel5.i386.rpm  \
   root@trogdor:/opt/software-repository-tmp/MySQL/MySQL-shared-community-5.0.45-0.rhel5.i386.rpm  \
   root@trogdor:/opt/software-repository-tmp/MySQL/MySQL-test-community-5.0.45-0.rhel5.i386.rpm  \
   root@trogdor:/opt/software-repository-tmp/MySQL/my.cnf  \
   root@trogdor:/opt/software-repository-tmp/common-init/web  /root
  2. Set up Java, and the Java home var. 
    chmod u+x /root/jdk-6-linux-i586.bin
cd /usr/local
/root/jdk-6-linux-i586.bin
    • Go through the user agreement, and type 'yes' at the prompt. 
      cd /root
cp /root/java_home.sh /etc/profile.d
chmod a+rx,a-w /etc/profile.d/java_home.sh
  3. Setup MySQL on the server.
    1. If a version of MySQL previous to 5.0 was installed, remove it from the server. 
      /etc/init.d/mysqld stop
grep mysql /var/log/rpmpkgs
rpm -e [relevant packages]
    2. If MySQL was not included, install it from RPM. 
      rpm -ivh MySQL-shared-community-5.0.45-0.rhel5.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh MySQL-server-community-5.0.45-0.rhel5.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh MySQL-client-community-5.0.45-0.rhel5.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh MySQL-test-community-5.0.45-0.rhel5.i386.rpm
      • If you have to massage the install of MySQL to get it to start, edit the init file to replace the chown lines to be db:db instead of mysql:mysql, and 'chown -R db:db /var/run/mysql /home/db'.
    3. Edit the my.cnf file, and copy it in /etc. Make certain the default engine in INNODB, the home directory in /home/db/mysql, the user is db, and the SSL setting are set, if they are needed (usually, they are not). 
      cd /root
vi my.cnf
cp /root/my.cnf /etc/my.cnf
    4. Update the DB home directory. 
      chown -R db:db /home/db
    5. Start the MySQL service. 
      /etc/init.d/mysqld start
  4. Perform an attended install of the ZEND Core servers. 
    cd /home/www
mkdir tmp
cd /home/www/tmp
tar -xzvf /root/ZendCore-2.5.0-linux-glibc21-i386.tar.gz
cd ZendCore-2.5.0-linux-glibc21-i386/
./install -y
    • The install command starts an interactive install script. Answer the questions with the answers below. 
      Do you accept the terms of this license?        Yes
Enter the destination path for the Zend Core Installation.:   /home/www/zendcore
Please enter a GUI Password:    [some password - will need it later, put it in a secure location]
Please select which components to install / configure:         2 [enter][enter]  # To add PHP
Select an Apache package to install.:   3 [enter]  #  Install the bundled Apache 2.2.4

    • It then runs an automated install. Take a coffee break. Finish the config: 
      Select one of the following actions:  2 [enter]
  5. Stop Zend Apache and correct the install location. Change the DocumentRoot location to /home/www/html. 
    /etc/init.d/httpd stop
cd /usr/local/Zend
mv apache2 /home/www/zendcore/
ln -s /home/www/zendcore/apache2 apache2
mkdir /home/www/zendcore/apache2/etc
mv /etc/httpd /home/www/zendcore/apache2/etc
ln -s  /home/www/zendcore/apache2/etc/httpd httpd
mkdir /home/www/html
cd /home/www/zendcore/apache2/etc/httpd/conf
sed -i s:/etc/httpd:/home/www/zendcore/apache2: httpd.conf
sed -i s:/var/www/html:/home/www/html: httpd.conf
sed -i s:"User apache":"User www": httpd.conf
sed -i s:"Group apache":"Group www": httpd.conf
sed -i s:/var/www:/home/www/zendcore/apache2: httpd.conf
cd /home/www/zendcore/apache2/etc/httpd
rm -f logs modules run
chown -R www:www /home/www/
/etc/init.d/httpd start
    • You may also need to comment out many of the modules trying to be loaded in httpd.conf.
