Step 3: Create IRM database

Using PHPMyAdmin create a new database for IRM. By default it wants one named “irm”.

Step 2: Edit Configuration files

Using a text editor, make appropriate changes to the following file to describe your installation. You will be changing info on the full url to the project on your server as well as the location, user name and password the project requires to connect to your MySQL Server:

Edit this files:

include/config.inc.php

You will also need to edit the “irm.inc” file and give it the full Unix path to the directory containing IRM.

Example:

$root_path = “/Library/WebServer/Documents/irm”;

Step 1: Download IRM

Download IRM from the following website:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/irm/

Once downloaded move the expanded directory to the location on your web server you would wish to host the project from.

Step 3: Authenticate into Dotproject

At this point your installation should be ready to go. With a browser attempt to load the index.php page of the directory you loaded Dotproject into. You will be greeted with an authentication screen. Supply the username and password you specified in the query prior to loading the database. You should now be working within Dotproject.

Step 2: Create Dotproject database

Using PHPMyAdmin, create a new database on your server named “dotproject”

Go to the directory have have installed your Dotproject and enter the “db” folder within. Find the file named “dotproject_101.sql” and open this in a text editor. At line 346 you will find a short section that can be edited for your installation. This is for configuring the administrator’s username & password as well as email. Save changes once completed. [Note that 1.0.1 is the current release as of this posting, alter this if the release is newer when you conduct this installation]

With the SQL tab, click on the “Choose File” button and go to the Dotproject directory and to the “db” directory to select the file “dotproject_101.sql” file. Load this query into the database.

Step 1: Download Dotproject

The source for Dotproject can be found at this site:

http://sf.net/projects/dotproject/

Download, decompress and move the resulting files to your web directory at which you would like to run the software from.

Joel,

I am in the group you state in this article should consider implementing MySQL support in order to use Postfix for a plethora of domains. Is this easy to implement? I am considering setting up a Jaguar server just for mail running the Exim/Courier system you pointed me to months back at captainnet.net.

Thanks for your endlessly informative help!

Step 5: Administration

You will then be sent to your Tiki. You can log in with the default administration login:

user: admin
pass: admin

You will be asked to change this immediately. After doing so you can begin configuring your Tiki. Go the the Admin section and click on the first option which is “Features” and turn on or off those features you wish. Explore the other areas of the system and study the manual to get a deeper idea of what can be done with your Tiki.

Step 4: Tiki Configuration

Now load the tiki-install.php for the Tiki system. You will be asked to supply the following information:

host: localhost
user: <<database user name>>
pass: <<database user password>>
database: tiki

[ElgertS]

Step 3: Create Database

Using PHPMyAdmin create a new database named “tiki”

[ElgertS]

Step 2: Prepare Installation

Within the Terminal, move to the Tiki directory and run the following commands:

[code:1:fa862cba7c]$ chmod +x setup.sh
sudo ./setup.sh :www
sudo chown -R <<yourusername>>:www tiki
chmod -R 770 tiki[/code:1:fa862cba7c]

[ElgertS]

Step One: Download Tiki

Download the source code for Tiki:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=64258&release_id=193747

Decompress and move to the location you want to serve the site from.

The website for OpenGroupware is of course:

http://www.opengroupware.org/

You will see some screenshots there of OpenGroupware working with Apple iCal. Since the project relies on Cyrus there is nothing preventing its use on Mac OS X Server 10.3.

Regarding Mac OS X installation, their FAQ as this to say:

[quote:a2a228570c]Most of the core libraries already work on MacOS X. Hopefully someone will step in and complete a MacOS X port (if you are interested, write an email to [email protected].[/quote:a2a228570c]

Step 6: Nuke Additions

The Nuke projects can be enhanced by adding Modules or Blocks. Block are navigation and page information elements that remain ever-present as your visitor attends your website. Besides creating navigation menus, Blocks can display advertising and dynamically chosen information from the Nuke site.

Modules are third party software that are added within Nuke. This can be specially made Nuke modules or they can be full-blown projects that can reside within Nuke as well as on their own. A prime example of this is Gallery. Gallery can be installed within Nuke simply by copying it within the Modules directory of your Nuke site. Once installed within Nuke, Gallery abides by the interface standards you have configured for Nuke and utilizes Nuke’s authentication instead of its own. Integration of the two projects is quite compelling and many additional enhancements such as specialized Blocks are available for Nuke sites that have Gallery installed.

Step 5: Theme Customization

Nuke & Postnuke utilize Themes to manage their site-wide appearance. These themes are handled with PHP and CSS files. One of the Themes has a html front end for simplified editing of the Theme.

To make your own Theme, go into the Themes directory and make a copy of “NukeNews” renaming it as you would like your Theme to be titled. Within this folder you will find a variety of html snippets that can be edited in the html editor of your choice including visual tools such as Golive or Dreamweaver. You will also want to edit the CSS information to alter how fonts appear in your site, especially to match the colors you decide to use in your new Theme.
