Download an appropriate EPrints Release
 |
This feature requires EPrints version 3.2.1 or later |
This page contains notes concerning installing version 3.2 on Win32-based platforms. There is still work to go on supporting EPrints on Win32.
Contents
Requirements
- Microsoft Windows XP or later
- Apache 2.0 or later
- MySQL 5 or later
- ModPerl 2.0 or later
Download EPrints Windows Installation Package (MSI)
Download the latest Win32 build from the link at the top of this page - do not install this until ALL supporting software is in place and in the places outlined!
Supporting Software
Apache
Download and install Apache 2.2 + OpenSSL (if needed) from http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi#apache22.
- Change the installation directory to C:\Apache
- After install manually add C:\Apache\bin to the windows path enviroment variable.
MySQL
Download and install MySQL from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
During the MySQL configuration Wizard:
- Change default character set to Best support For Multilingualism
Perl
Download and install ActiveState Perl 5.10 from http://www.activestate.com/activeperl/downloads/
You should use the 32 bit version, as there are only 32 bit builds of Apache available.
Perl Modules
Add the uwinnipeg repository to PPM:
- Start the "Perl Package Manager" (ActiveState Perl start menu)
- Edit → Preferences
- Under the Repositories tab add the University of Winnipeg repository from the suggested list.
- Click Ok then close PPM
Run a command-prompt. On Vista+ you must run the command-prompt as administrator (right-click command prompt icon and select 'Run as administrator).
Install mod_perl:
- > ppm install mod_perl
- When asked, set the Apache modules directory to C:/Apache/modules
Install DBD::mysql:
- > ppm install DBD-mysql
Install XML::LibXML:
- > ppm install XML-LibXML
Install XML::LibXSLT:
- > ppm install XML-LibXSLT
- When asked, allow fetching of the required libraries.
Install Win32::Daemon:
- > ppm install Win32::Daemon
Configuration
Edit the Apache configuration file C:\Apache\conf\httpd.conf and add below the last LoadModule line:
LoadFile C:/perl/bin/perl510.dll LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so
And at the end of the file:
Include C:/eprints/cfg/apache.conf
Getting Started
Before starting Apache configure a new repository, see Getting Started with EPrints 3.
