Recipe instructions for building your own Avalon setup from scratch on CentOS or Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Install EPEL

rpm -ivh http://linux.mirrors.es.net/fedora-epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm


Make sure a valid hostname is resolvable

The default hostname is “avalon.dev”, so name the machine this and enter it into /etc/hosts

# hostname
avalon.dev
# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 avalon.dev

 

Install the NUL repository information into /etc/yum.repos.d/nul-public.repo, and place the GPG key in the proper location:

 

Contents of nul-public.repo

[nul_public]
name=NUL Library Public RHEL repository
baseurl=http://yumrepo-public.library.northwestern.edu/x86_64
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-nul
cost=150

 

NUL yumrepo GPG key

/etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-nul
http://yumrepo-public.library.northwestern.edu/RPM-GPG-KEY-nul

Disable SELinux

setenforce 0

Stop iptables

service iptables stop

Install Development Libraries

yum groupinstall "Development Tools"

Install development packages for building Ruby:

yum install readline-devel zlib-devel libyaml-devel libffi-devel openssl-devel libxml2-devel libxslt-devel

Tomcat

Install Apache Tomcat with the nulrepo-public repository configured and enabled.

yum install tomcat
service tomcat start

Change the Tomcat connector port

on line 70 of /usr/local/tomcat/conf/server.xml to port 8983:

<Connector port="8983" protocol="HTTP/1.1"

Restart tomcat

service tomcat restart

Solr

Download the solr tarball and unpack it to /usr/local/solr/:

from http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/lucene/solr/4.2.0

wget http://apache.mirrors.hoobly.com/lucene/solr/4.2.0/solr-4.2.0.tgz
tar xvf solr-4.2.0.tgz
mv solr-4.2.0 /usr/local/solr
cd /usr/local/solr/dist/
cp solr-4.2.0.war /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/solr.war
mv solr-4.2.0.war /usr/local/solr/solr.war

 

Place into /usr/local/tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost/solr.xml:

<Context docBase="/usr/local/solr/solr.war" debug="0" crossContext="true">
 <Environment name="solr/home" type="java.lang.String" value="/usr/local/solr" override="true"/>
</Context>

 

Place into /usr/local/solr/solr.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
  <solr persistent="true">
    <cores defaultCoreName="avalon" adminPath="/admin/cores" zkClientTimeout="${zkClientTimeout:15000}" hostPort="8983" hostContext="solr">
    <core instanceDir="avalon/" name="avalon"/>
  </cores>
</solr>

 

Create directories and move files around

mkdir /usr/local/solr/lib
mv /usr/local/solr/dist/* /usr/local/solr/lib/
mv /usr/local/solr/contrib /usr/local/solr/lib/
 
wget https://github.com/avalonmediasystem/puppet-solr/archive/master.zip
unzip master
mv puppet-solr-master/files/avalon /usr/local/solr
chown -R tomcat7:tomcat /usr/local/solr/
chown -R tomcat7:tomcat /usr/local/tomcat
service tomcat restart

 

MySQL

Install MySQL server 

yum install mysql-server
service mysqld start

 

 

and create 1 user with ALL privileges to 1 database for Fedora Commons Repository software, and 1 user with 1 database for the Avalon web application. 

 

mysql

create database fedora3;
create user 'fcrepo'@'localhost' identified by 'fcrepo';
grant all privileges on fedora3.* to 'fcrepo'@'localhost';
flush privileges; 


create database rails;
create user 'rails'@'localhost' identified by 'rails';
grant all privileges on rails.* to 'rails'@'localhost';
flush privileges;

 

 

 

Please see documentation for your version of MySQL Server for detailed syntax (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/create-database.html)
