Below are instructions for building your own Archivematica virtual appliance. This allows you to create intermediate or branch releases to test and use your own modifications.
Requirements
- Ubuntu 9.04
- vmbuilder requires KVM which requires a virt compatible processor however, you do not need virt support for vmbuilder
- At least 2GB of ram
Pre Build
1. check out the source [To obtain subversion (SVN): sudo apt-get subversion]
svn checkout http://archivematica.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ archivematica-read-only
2. Modify archivematica-read-only/trunk/archivematica.cfg to resemble your file system IE:
execscript = /home/demo/trunk/archivematica.sh
should be
execscript = /home/yourhomefolder/archivematica-read-only/trunk/archivematica.sh
3. Build archivematica for your hosts virtualization platform. All the following commands will build the same virtual machine.. each for a different platform [To obtain vmbuilder: sudo apt-get ubuntu-vm-builder]
sudo vmbuilder vmserver ubuntu -c archivematica.cfg sudo vmbuilder xen ubuntu -c archivematica.cfg sudo vmbuilder kvm ubuntu -c archivematica.cfg
Post Build
1. boot your virtual machine. For KVM its under ubuntu-kvm, for other examples please see Virtual_appliance_instructions.
kvm -m 528 -smp 1 -drive file=disk0.qcow2
2. From inside the machine open a terminal and run the following (password is demo)
sudo aptitude install openjdk-6-jre incrontab /etc/incron.tab sudo mysqladmin create qubit
3. Open firefox and navigate to http://localhost, go through the qubit installer for the database settings all defaults will work.
4. Aside from some icon placement you now have a fully functional version of archivematica!
