Greetings,
Yes, I was hoping to getting around to cleaning up the documentation
further. However until I have a 64-bit OS to attempt to install, I can't
really address all the problems some people are encountering. Which bugs me,
because I want good documentation for all three types of installs.
The problem is you can't write step-by-step documentation for each OS,
because a tarball install under Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS are all going to
encounter different problems. Similarly, a git install will as well. You can
only write "here's a problem you may encounter and here's an example of how
to handle it". This gets compounded into a people looking for a step-by-step
guide, and they'll keep hunting until they find one regardless of how dated
it is.
I believe the http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_Ubuntu is a good
place for a basic set of tarball instructions. The problem then becomes OS
specific when trying to install dependencies like
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_3.6_on_Centos_6.2_i386. This is
another reason packages is a better way: the dependencies should all be
there.
GPML,
Mark Tompsett
