Editing Category:Installation

== Default Install ==
The default installation of EPrints is on a stand-alone linux system, but this is not the only way EPrints can (and has) been installed.

'''The EPrints team currently recommends installing EPrints in the following way:'''
* '''[[Installing EPrints on_RHEL/Fedora/CentOS]]'''

== Alternative Installs ==
You may need to intall EPrints in a different environment:
* '''[[Installing EPrints on Debian/Ubuntu]]'''

Some people have gone a step further and installed EPrints in other ways:
* '''[[Generic_Linux_Installation|Installing from source]]'''
* [[non-root_proxy|Proxied to a non-root user account]]: Where the server and all associated code is installed without root/admin access to anything
* [[How to set up EPrints on virtual directories other than root|Hosted on virtual directories other than root]] - sharing with other Web applications on the same server

== This category ==
This category contains a range of other sets of instructions for different operating systems and versions of EPrints. Most of them are not supported but may still work. {{EPrintsTech}}

If you want to write installation instructions for a system other than those listed here please do so. Remember to tag the page with <nowiki>[[Category:Installation]]</nowiki> so that it appears in this list. 

'''If you use one of the installation guides below and it doesn't work, edit the page to say what went wrong and how you fixed it. This will help others (and maybe yourself) tackle these problems in the future. [[Template:Register|Here you can register for an eprints.org account]] to edit the wiki.'''
