Installing CentOS and WWO onto playground

This page is notes for re-creating the WWO environment from RH 6.10 (wwp.neu.edu) to CentOS 8.2 (playground). It will serve as a guide to start, and then hopefully a useful description for future similar upgrades.

CentOS

Installing CentOS was essentially trivial. We used the XXXXXXXXXXX.

Things we will need

  • Emacs
  • Emacs/nxml
  • make
  • Subversion
  • libxml2/xmllint
  • libxslt/xsltproc
  • ant
  • screen
  • Tomcat
  • git
  • eXist
  • MariaDB (maybe? maybe not)
  • lessc (pkg = node-less)
  • Perl
  • PHP
  • Python
  • Awstats

Apache modules, etc.

  • mod_jk
  • server side includes
  • whatever we need for security and textbaseIP stuff
  • redirection stuff

November 2019 notes

“playground” is the name Ashley & Syd give to the box they are using for experimentations. (Currently for web stat packages.) This page describes a procedure for installing a CentOS (i.e., RedHat clone) OS on it quickly.

  • Remember to back up iptables and restore it
  • We re-set the clock with instructions from a website we found.
