h1. Installing the Tapestry application
Install ruby .deb from http://www.rubyenterpriseedition.com/download.html
Install rails.
sudo gem install rails
sudo gem install passenger
sudo /usr/local/bin/passenger-install-apache2-module
Add stuff (as provided by passenger-install) to your conf.d/passenger.conf
<pre>
LoadModule passenger_module /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/passenger-3.0.9/ext/apache2/mod_passenger.so
PassengerRoot /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/passenger-3.0.9
PassengerRuby /usr/local/bin/ruby
RackEnv "development"
</pre>
Install some prerequisites for gems.
sudo apt-get install libxslt-dev libxml2-dev
Check out git repo from git@git.clinicalfuture.com:tapestry.git to somewhere -- say, /var/www/tapestry.example.org
Then execute:
sudo bundle install
If that fails, you might need to fix some dependencies like these ones, then repeat bundle install:
sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev libxslt-dev
Point a virtualhost to the @public@ dir in your git repo
<pre>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName tapestry.example.org
DocumentRoot /var/www/tapestry.example.org/public
<Directory /var/www/tapestry.example.org/public>
AllowOverride all
Options -MultiViews
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
</pre>
Copy @config/database.example@ to @config/database.yml@ and edit to suit. Make sure to select mysql as the database server. Generate a password using @pwgen 12 1@ or @head -c12345 /dev/urandom|md5sum|head -c12;echo@. For example:
development:
adapter: mysql
server: localhost
database: mypg
username: mypg
password: c16fbe415d29
timeout: 5000
Copy @config/environments/development.rb.sample@ to @config/environments/development.rb@ and edit to suit. In particular the ROOT_URL (you may skip the "http://" prefix):
ROOT_URL = 'your.vhost.name'
Set up the database:
rake db:setup
rake db:schema:load
Set up data directory (replace USERNAME with the user who owns the GIT directory this code is in, and ROOT_URL matching the one above):
sudo mkdir -p /data/ROOT_URL
sudo chown -R USERNAME:USERNAME /data/ROOT_URL
After you do a git pull, you'll probably want to do
rake db:migrate
to bring your database up to the latest release.
If the Gemfile has changed, you will also have to run
sudo bundle install
