Building Legacy 5.5rc1

The following instructions provide a detailed step-by-step for how to build the OpenGroupware Legacy release candidate 1 on openSUSE 12.1.  Building on other distributions should be very similar. These instructions are intended for those interested in participating in OpenGroupware Legacy development and testing.

Step#1) Install dependencies

zypper in libapr-util1-devel libapr1-devel gcc46-objc libobjc46 postgresql-devel libmysqlclient-devel apache2-utils apache2-devel openldap2-devel libxmlsec1-devel libxmlsec1-gnutls-devel libxml2-devel libxslt-devel

Step #2) Get GNUstep

svn co http://svn.gna.org/svn/gnustep/modules/core

Step #3) Get SOPE

curl-o sope.tar.gz \
   http://www.sogo.nu/files/downloads/SOGo/Sources/SOPE-1.3.11.tar.gz

Step #4) Get OpenGroupware Legacy

hg clone http://opengroupware.hg.sourceforge.net:8000/hgroot/opengroupware/opengroupware

Step #5) Build and install GNUstep make

cd  core/make/
./configure
make
sudo make install

Step #6) Build and install GNUstep base

. /usr/local/share/GNUstep/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh
cd ../base
./configure --disable-tls
make
make check
sudo make install

Step #7) Build and install SOPE

cd ../..
tar xzvf sope.tar.gz
cd SOPE-1.3.11
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo /sbin/ldconfig

Step #8) Build OGo

cd ../opengroupware/opengroupware/
hg pull
hg update
./configure
make APR=/usr/bin/apr-1-config APXS=/usr/sbin/apxs2
sudo make installsudo /sbin/ldconfig

Step #9) Configure OGo via defaults
If you have an existing OpenGroupware Legacy installation you probably already have the LSConnectionDictionary default defined appropriately. Note that the command used to editing defaults has changed from "Defaults" to "defaults".

su - ogo
mkdir /var/lib/opengroupware.org/run
defaults write ogo-webui WOPidFile /var/lib/opengroupware.org/run/ogo-webui.pid
defaults write ogo-zidestore WOPidFile /var/lib/opengroupware.org/run/ogo-zidestore.pid
defaults write ogo-xmlrpcd WOPidFile /var/lib/opengroupware.org/run/ogo-xmlrpcd.pid
defaults write ogo-webui WOLogFile /var/lib/opengroupware.org/run/ogo-webui.log
defaults write ogo-zidestore WOLogFile /var/lib/opengroupware.org/run/ogo-zidestore.log
defaults write ogo-xmlrpcd WOLogFile /var/lib/opengroupware.org/run/ogo-xmlrpcd.log
defaults write ogo-webui WOPort 20000
defaults write ogo-zidestore WOPort 21000
defaults write ogo-xmlrpcd WOPort 22000
defaults write NSGlobalDomain imap_host 127.0.0.1
defaults write NSGlobalDomain LSConnectionDictionary \
    '{userName="OGo"; databaseName="OGo";hostName="localhost";password="*******";}'
defaults write NSGlobalDomain NGBundlePath "/usr/local/lib64/opengroupware.org-5.5/commands:/usr/local/lib64/opengroupware.org-5.5/webui:/usr/local/lib64/opengroupware.org-5.5/datasources"
defaults write NSGlobalDomain LSModelName OpenGroupware.org_PostgreSQL

Step #9) Fire-up ZideStore

ogo-zidestore -WOLogFile - -WONoDetach YES -WOUseWatchDog NO

If it runs then your development build is probably OK!
