VuFind

Introduction

VuFind is an open source discovery environment for searching a collection of records. To learn more, visit http://vufind.org.

Installation

WARNING: VuFind 2.0 is a work in progress.

Instructions

  1. Install PHP 5.3 and MySQL; the existing installation instructions for VuFind 1.x will help you set up these dependencies (see http://vufind.org/wiki/installation).

  2. Copy the VuFind 2 code to /usr/local/vufind2 (or another directory of your choice).

  3. Run the VuFind2 install script:

cd /usr/local/vufind2 php install.php

If you are testing VuFind 2 on a server that is also running VuFind 1.x, be sure you choose a base path for the URL that does not conflict with VuFind 1.x (/vufind2 is a good choice).

  1. Load VuFind2's Apache configuration file using the instructions displayed by the install script.

  2. Ensure that your web server can write to the "local" directories

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /usr/local/vufind2/local

(Note that this step may vary depending on your operating system -- you may need to replace www-data with apache).

  1. To finish configuration, navigate to http://your-vufind-server/vufind2/Install and follow the on-screen instructions. If you are upgrading from VuFind 1.x, navigate to http://your-vufind-server/vufind2/Upgrade instead.

  2. If you run into problems, uncomment the "SetEnv VUFIND_ENV development" line in /usr/local/vufind2/local/httpd-vufind.conf and restart Apache to see more detailed error messages.


You should now have a working VuFind 2.0 instance running at http://your-vufind-server/vufind2
