|
Installing Metacat requires a server running an SQL92 compliant database
|
| 63 |
|
|
(Oracle 8i recommended) with at least 128MB RAM, and a Pentium III class
|
| 64 |
|
|
processor or higher. The amount of disk space required depends on the
|
| 65 |
|
|
size of your RDBMS tablespace (which should be at least 10 MB,
|
| 66 |
|
|
however Metacat itself requires only about 1 MB of free space after
|
| 67 |
|
|
installation. These instructions assume a Linux environment but may
|
| 68 |
|
|
work on other UNIX type environments, however this has not been tested.

<p class = "header">Additional Required Software</p>

The server on which you wish to install Metacat must have the following

|
software installed and running correctly before attempting to install
|
| 74 |
|
|
Metacat.

The Oracle RDBMS must be installed and running as a daemon on the system.
|
| 99 |
|
|
In addition the JDBC listener must be enabled. You can enable it by
|
| 100 |
|
|
logging in as your Oracle user and typing the following:
|
| 101 |
|
|
<pre>lsnrctl start</pre>
|
| 102 |
|
|
Your instance should have a table space of at least 5 MB (10 MB or higher
|
| 103 |
|
|
recommended). You should also have a username specific to Metacat
|
| 104 |
|
|
created and enabled. This user must have most normal permissions
|
| 105 |
|
|
including CREATE SESSION, CREATE TABLE, CREATE INDEX, CREATE TRIGGER,
|
| 106 |
|
|
EXECUTE PROCEDURE, EXECUTE TYPE, etc. If an action is unexplainably
|
| 107 |
|
|
rejected by Metacat it is probably because the user permissions are not
|
| 108 |
|
|
correctly set.

Ant is a Java based build application similar to Make on UNIX systems.
|
| 113 |
|
|
It takes in installation parameters from a file in the root installation
|
| 114 |
|
|
directory named "build.xml". The Metacat CVS module contains a default
|
| 115 |
|
|
build.xml file that may require some modification upon installation. Ant
|
| 116 |
932
|
jones
|
should be installed on the system and the "ant" executable shell script
|
| 117 |
878
|
berkley
|
should be available in the users path.

Install tomcat into the directory of your choice. The directory in which

you install Tomcat itself will be referred to as the "$CATALINA_HOME".
|

tomcat installation is avaliable in <a href=" http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/index.html">here</a>.

Once all of the prerequisite software is installed as described above,
|
| 136 |
|
|
the installation of Metacat can begin. First you must have a current
|
| 137 |
|
|
version of the source distribution of Metacat. You can get it two ways.
|
| 138 |
|
|
Authorized users can check it out of the NCEAS
|
| 139 |
|
|
<a href="http://www.nceas.ucsb.edu/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/xmltodb/">CVS</a>
|
| 140 |
1770
|
tao
|
system under the module name metacat. The command is as follows:
|
| 141 |
|
|
<pre>cvs checkout -P metacat</pre> Or you can
|
| 142 |
878
|
berkley
|
<a href="@server@/software/download.html">download</a> a gzipped tar file
|
| 143 |

Once you have either checked out or unzipped and untarred the source
|
| 148 |
|
|
distribution, you can begin the installation process. Change into the
|
| 149 |
1770
|
tao
|
metacat directory and edit the file called "build.xml". You will need
|
| 150 |
932
|
jones
|
to change a number of configuration properties to match the setup on
|
| 151 |
|
|
your system. If you are using oracle, you'll need to customize the
|
| 152 |
|
|
properties in the "oracle" target. If you are using Postgres, you'll
|
| 153 |
989
|
berkley
|
need to customize the properties in the "postgres" target. All users
|
| 154 |
932
|
jones
|
will need to customize the properties in the "config" target.

dbDriver, dbAdapter, oracle_home,

| 160 |
988
|
tao
|
web-base-url, and default-style. Each is described in detail below.
|
| 161 |
|
|
You should also verify that the jar file properties mentioned in the
|
| 162 |
|
|
remainder of the config target are accessible at the paths listed -- the
|
| 163 |
|
|
defaults will usually work.

|
Note that the build file is preconfigured to install Metacat either using
|
| 167 |
|
|
Oracle or PostgreSQL as a backend database. To change the database
|
| 168 |
|
|
system, simply change the 'depends' attribute of the 'config' target to be
|
| 169 |
|
|
the name of the database target that you wish to use (either 'oracle' or
|
| 170 |
|
|
'postgresql'). If you wish to use a different database system, add a new
|
| 171 |
|
|
target for your database with the needed parameters and actions then add it
|
| 172 |
|
|
to the 'depends' attribute.

The default-style parameter defines the "style-set" that is to be used

by default when the qformat parameter is missing or set to "html" during

default metacat distribution. If you create your own stylesheets for

displaying metacat output, you may want to create a new config file in the

config-dir (e.g., mystyle.xml) and then change the default-style to use

Replication-log is the location at which you want Metacat to place any

replication log files. The user that starts Tomcat must have permission to

write to this directory.

The config-dir parameter specifies the location of the configuration files

You now need to set up the table structure in your database. Change to the
|
| 307 |
1770
|
tao
|
metacat/src directory. Then run you RDBMS's SQL utility. In Oracle it is
|
| 308 |
878
|
berkley
|
SQLPlus. This tutorial assumes an Oracle database so this example is for
|
| 309 |
|
|
SQLPlus. Login as the oracle user that was set up for use with Metacat.
|
| 310 |
1770
|
tao
|
At the SQLPlus prompt type the following: <pre><b>@xmltables.sql;</b></pre>
|
| 311 |
878
|
berkley
|
You should see a bunch of output showing the creation of the Metacat table
|
| 312 |
|
|
space. The first time you run this script you will get several errors at the
|
| 313 |
|
|
beginning saying that you cannot drop a table/index/trigger because it
|
| 314 |
|
|
does not exist. This is normal. Any other errors besides this need to be
|
| 315 |
1770
|
tao
|
resolved before continuing. The script file name for PostgreSQL is
|
| 316 |
|
|
xmltalbes_postgres.sql and for Microsoft SQL server is xmltables-sqlserver.sql.

<p>Once metacat itself is installed, you should also register

the Ecological Metadata Language (EML) DTDs and schemas. This process is done most

<p>This command registers the DTDs' and schemas' location in the

jones
|
metacat server. Your database username and password have to be set correctly

Note: The 'data' directory in the installation directory must be writeable

Once you have successfully installed Metacat, there is one more step. Tomcat
|
| 379 |
|
|
(and Apache if you have Tomcat integrated with it) must be restarted. To do
|
| 380 |
1770
|
tao
|
this, login as the user that runs your tomcat server (often "tomcat"),
|
| 381 |
|
|
go to $CATALINA_HOME/bin and type:
|
| 382 |
878
|
berkley
|
<pre>
|
| 383 |
1770
|
tao
|
./shutdown.sh
|
| 384 |
|
|
./startup.sh
|
| 385 |
878
|
berkley
|
</pre>
|
| 386 |
1770
|
tao
|
In the Tomcat startup messages you should see something in log file like:
|
| 387 |
878
|
berkley
|
<pre>
|
| 388 |
|
|
MetacatServlet Initialize
|
| 389 |
|
|
Context log path="/metadata" :Metacat: init
|
| 390 |
|
|
MetacatServlet Initialize
|
| 391 |
|
|
</pre>
|
| 392 |
|
|
If you see that message Tomcat is successfully loading the Metacat servlet.
|
| 393 |
|
|
Next, try to run your new servlet. Go to a web browser and type:
|
| 394 |
932
|
jones
|
<pre>http://yourserver.yourdomain.com/yourcontext/</pre>
|
| 395 |
|
|
You should substitute your context name for "yourcontext" in the url above.
|
| 396 |
878
|
berkley
|
If everything is working correctly, you should see a query page followed
|
| 397 |
880
|
jones
|
by an empty result set. Note that if you do not have Tomcat integrated with
|
| 398 |
878
|
berkley
|
Apache you will probably have to type
|
| 399 |
932
|
jones
|
<pre>http://yourserver.yourdomain.com:8080/yourcontext/</pre>
