Hallo

i tested to install and start apacheDS on debian etch (minimal netinst with sun jdk 1.5)

dpkg -i apacheds-debian-1.5.2-SNAPSHOT.deb
was pretty fast (1-2 seconds)

i had to add JAVA_HOME and PATH vars for root (since normally root is not used)
export JAVE_HOME=/usr/local/java/jdk-1.5
export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin

using the init.d script to start apacheDS then worked. (also status and stop work)

a few comments / questions:
 - the log file ends up in /opt/apacheds-1.5.2-SNAPSHOT/bin/wrapper.log
   is there another log file somewhere else?

 - is there some test-suite to verify its more than running but also
   working?

 - is the fact the root user is used related to the port? ports below
   1000 need root permissions. but i remember there are some tomcat
   faq on running tomcat on port 80 without the root user.


hope this helped somehow :)
regards

ossi

Hi everyone,

Here's another installer to be tested, a Deb package (for Debian based Linux
distributions).

I tested it on my machine with Ubuntu 7.10 and Java 1.5.0_13.


For those who are interested in, the installer is located here:
    
http://people.apache.org/~pamarcelot/apacheds-debian-1.5<http://tr_1205232733253>
.2-SNAPSHOT.deb<http://people.apache.org/%7Epamarcelot/apacheds-debian-1.5.2-SNAPSHOT.deb>


This installer will install the following things on your system:

   - ApacheDS data is installed in "/opt/apacheds-1.5.2-SNAPHOT"
   - ApacheDS instances are installed in "/var/lib/apacheds-1.5.2-SNAPHOT
   "
   - An init script will be installed in "/etc/init.d/apacheds-
   1.5.2-SNAPSHOT-default"


To start the server, run the following command:
$ /etc/init.d/apacheds-1.5.2-SNAPSHOT-default start

To stop the server, run the following command:
$ /etc/init.d/apacheds-1.5.2-SNAPSHOT-default stop


Note: As with the previous binary installer, the server is run using user
"root", I still need to figure out why this can't work when using an
"apacheds" user.


Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Regards,
Pierre-Arnaud
