----------------------------------------------------------------
Here is a short installation-howto of Mir.
- postgres 7.1+
- ant (a java-based make)
- jaxp-1.1 (a SAX 2.0 compliant XML parser, comes with ant >= 1.4)
-- the JAI image framework (Java Advanced Imaging) versin 1.1.1 . get it from
- java.sun.com. ** NOTE: because JAI uses a native acceration library (a .so)
- it must be placed in tomcat's "lib" (i.e $TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib) directory and
- not under the default webapps/Mir/WEB-INF/lib directory **
+- the JAI image framework (Java Advanced Imaging) version 1.1.2 . Get it from
+ java.sun.com. You need both: JAI and JAI Image I/O. Install those two in
+ the JRE running tomcat.
+
- A good reading of Tomcat, Apache and Postgresql documentation if you are not
familiar with any of them. The documentation is available at:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/index.html,
tomcat or other webapps and can't afford to shutdown all of them.
See the tomcat documentation to learn how to enable and use the manager app.
-7. Copy any dynamic library files ending with ".so" (so far only the JAI native
-acceleration library found in the JAI package tarball or zip from sun) to your
-$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/i386 directory (where the other ".so" files live). Or, you
-can skip the whole thing and live without "native" acceleration for image
-manupulation.
+7. Follow the installation instructions of JAI / JAI Image I/O.
8a. create a new database
The database name should be the same as in config.properties. Please look at
