Installation notes:
-------------------
Please follow the INSTALL file bundled in the distribution tarball.
Upgrade notes:
--------------
If you are upgrading from CDSware v0.7.0, then please follow the
following steps:
- Launch the bibsched monitor and wait until all active bibsched
tasks are finished. Then put bibsched daemon into sleeping
(manual) mode.
- Stop all submission procedures and other write operations: for
example, you may want to switch your site to read-only mode (set
CFG_ACCESS_CONTROL_LEVEL_SITE to 1 in access_control_config.py
and restart Apache) or you may want to stop Apache completely.
- Optionally you may want to backup your current MySQL database and
your CDSware installation directory. (This step is not really
mandatory for the 0.7.0 -> 0.7.1 transition, since the changes
are of minor nature only.)
- Untar new sources and rerun configure with old arguments (see
/path/to/cdsware/lib/wml/cdsware/etc/build/config.nice).
- Merge your old config.wml with the new one. (Your old config.wml
can be found in /path/to/cdsware/lib/wml/cdsware/config.wml.)
The only novelty in the new config.wml file is the introduction
of the Catalan translation in the CDSNAMEINTL and CDSLANGS
options, so that merging should be straightforward. Note that
you may directly reuse your old config.wml file in case you do
not plan to provide your user interface in Catalan.
- Run make.
- If you have customized your /path/to/cdsware/etc/ files since the
last installation (for example to edit the stopwords list or
configure language stemmers), then back them up now.
- Run make install.
- If you have backed up your old /path/to/cdsware/etc/ directory as
mentioned before, then restore your old etc files now.
- Optionally update your tables with the new Catalan and Spanish
field names:
$ grep "'ca'" modules/miscutil/sql/tabfill.sql | \
./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec
$ echo "UPDATE fieldname SET value='materia' \
WHERE value='' AND id_field=7 AND ln='es';" | \
./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec
$ echo "UPDATE fieldname SET value='división' \
WHERE value='' AND id_field=11 AND ln='es';" | \
./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec
$ echo "UPDATE fieldname SET value='experimento' \
WHERE value='' AND id_field=13 AND ln='es';" | \
./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec
$ echo "UPDATE fieldname SET value='registro núm.' \
WHERE value='' AND id_field=14 AND ln='es';" | \
./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec
- Optionally run webcoll to regenerate Catalan and Spanish search
interface pages.
- Re-enable write access if you have disabled it before and restart
your Apache server.
- Put the bibsched daemon back into the automatic mode. You are
done.
Known problems:
---------------
*) Several modules of the this release (e.g. the mail submission
system, citation and download ranking) are experimental and not
yet activated. You may have a peek at what is planned, but please
do not rely on them.
*) The admin-level functionality for several modules is not fully
developed yet.
*) Fulltext file storage management is not yet linked with the
metadata management.
What's next:
------------
*) Fixing the problems mentioned above.
*) Developing clearer relations and dependencies between metadata
records and fulltext files.
*) Introducing page templating to ease the customization of CDSware
interface.
*) Introducing a new tool for matching external XML MARC records
against the database content.
