Installation of CVS version of ERP5 on Mandrake Linux

by Relja Stanisavljevic and Bartłomiej Górny

=====================================================

Most of the required packages you can find on:
http://smets.com/static/Mandrake/10.2/SRPMS/

Some of them are located in 10.1 and 10.0 directories.

For other packages either google or use the links given at the end of this document.

-----------------------------------------------------

Follow these steps to install and run the CVS version of ERP5.

1) Install the following:

- python (2.3.5 and 2.4.1 are ok)

- psyco-1.4-src.tar.gz

- ReportLab 1.10

- python-reportlab-accel-0.52.20050424-1mdk.src.rpm

- itools-0.7.4-1mdk.src.rpm

- Imaging-1.1.5.tar.gz (from effbot.org)

- MySQL-Max

- Numeric-24.0b2.tar.gz (Python add-on)

- PyXML-0.8.4.tar.gz

(probably some more things that we already had...)

2) Get Zope

- download zope-2.7.2rc1-1nxd.i586.rpm

- extract zope source and Zope-2.7.2-rc1-aq_dynamic.patch

- apply patch (patch -p1 < ../Zope-2.7.2-rc1-aq_dynamic.patch)

- build zope, make zope instance

- install iHotfix-0.5.2 (download iHotfix-0.5.2-2mdk.src.rpm, extract the source, apply patch, copy __init__.py and version.txt to INSTANCE_HOME/Products/iHotfix) 

3) Install required Zope Products

Get the following files, extract source from each of them, apply patches where any are present, then copy the result to your INSTANCE_HOME/Products directory, stripping version numbers from directory names).

BTreeFolder2-1.0.1.tar.gz
CMF-1.4.8.tar.gz
CMFMailIn-1.0.0-2nxd.src.rpm
CMFPhoto-1.2.3-5mdk.src.rpm
CMFReportTool-0.1.1.20050422-1mdk.src.rpm
Formulator-1.9.0.tgz (apply Formulator-1.8.0-Editable.patch)
Localizer-1.1.0-3mdk.src.rpm
Photo-1.2.3-5mdk.src.rpm
TranslationService-0.4-1mdk.src.rpm
ZMailIn-1.0.1-2mdk.src.rpm
ZMySQLDA-2.0.9b2-5mdk.src.rpm

4) Tweak setup

Copy:

INSTANCE_HOME/Products/ERP5/Extensions/InventoryBrain.py
INSTANCE_HOME/Products/ZSQLCatalog/zsqlbrain.py

to

INSTANCE_HOME/Extensions

5) Get the following from CVS:

CMFActivity
CMFCategory
CMFTranslation
ERP5
ERP5Catalog
ERP5Form
ERP5SyncML
ERP5Type
ZSQLCatalog
erp5_bt5

Place it all in your INSTANCE_HOME/Products

6) INSTANCE_HOME/bin/.runzope

7) Create an erp5 site

Add ERP5 Site from ZMI

It takes a long time, so be patient; if you check processes with 'top' and see nothing going on, don't panic - this is normal. Keep waiting - it will show up eventually.
