[Erp5-users] Installation on ubuntu

[jp at nexedi.com]

Hi,

If you just want to run it on your local machine, please follow:
  https://www.tiolive.com/grid/help

This will install it and configure a local instance.

Usually, beginners get an instance after half an hour
by folllowing this way.

Buildout installation is for more intended for developers who
need to produce RPMs / Debs like those made for TioLive grid.

Regards,

JPS.


    hello, totally new to ERP5 and plone, but not a stranger to linux. So i
    tried to install it in ubuntu, cant be that hard can it? HOW WRONG I WAS. 

    Anyway, after about 12 hours of installation, i managed to install with i
    think about three errors. I am interested in erp5 primarily because i would
    love to try deploying it in a hospital, it has to be stand alone because
    the hospital does not have a stable internet connection., then couldnt
    figure out what was wrong. first here is my source of confusion:

    1: initially, i found rpm packages for erp5 which i installed successfully,
    on completion, nothing. localhost:8080 had nothing and there were no
    services running, neither was there any database on mysql. 

    2: I then decided to follow the instructions her http://www.erp5.com/
    download/linux/Howto-Install.erp5.From.Buildout
    Took 14 hours and thats what ended with three errors. this is what i got:
