Deploying Archivematica 1.0 packages

Archivematica packages are hosted on Launchpad, in an Ubuntu PPA (Personal Package Archive). There are a number of Archivematica PPA's, the test versions of Archivematica 1.0 packages are hosted in the archivematica/daily ppa. In order to install software onto your Ubuntu 12.04 system from this PPA:

  • Update your system to the most recent 12.04 release (12.04.3)
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
  • Add the archivematica/daily PPA to your list of trusted repositories:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:archivematica/daily

(for the final release, use ppa:archivematica/release )

  • Fetch a list of the software from the archivematica/daily ppa:
sudo apt-get update
  • Install the storage service

normally you would just do:

sudo apt-get install archivematica-storage-service

but for now it is necessary to do:

sudo apt-get install nginx uwsgi uwsgi-plugin-python
sudo dpkg -i archivematica-storage-service_0.2.2ppa8_all.deb
  • Configure the storage service

note:these steps are safe to do on a desktop, or a machine dedicated to Archivematica. They may not be advisable on an existing web server. Consult with your web server administrator if you are unsure.

sudo rm /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/storage /etc/nginx/sites-available/storage
sudo ln -s /etc/uwsgi/apps-enabled/storage.ini /etc/nginx/apps-available/storage.ini
sudo service uwsgi restart
sudo service nginx restart
  • Test the storage service

go to the following link in a web browser:

http://localhost:8000

log in as user: test pass: test

  • Delete the test user and create a new user

The storage service runs as a separate web app from the Archivematica dashboard, and has its own set of users. You should add at least one user, and delete or modify the test user.
