[[Category:EdShare]]
The following conventions apply in this recipie;
+
[[Category:Eprints3.2]]
* ''EPRINTS_ROOT'' - This is where you installed eprints. Usually this is ''/usr/share/eprints3'' on Debian/Ubuntu or ''/opt/eprints3'' following a source code install. Obviously change this if you installed EPrints elsewhere.
 
* ''ARCHIVEID'' - This is the id of the archive you set up that you want to carry out this recipie on.
 
 
 
==Getting Started==
 
 
 
===EPrints===
 
You will need to have installed EPrints 3.2 before continuing. See the following pages for reference on how to do this;
 
 
 
* Ubuntu/Debian [[Installing EPrints 3 via apt (Debian/Ubuntu)]]
 
* Other Linux [[Installation|Installing from source]]
 
 
 
Create a new repository with an ARCHIVEID of your choice.
 
 
 
===EdShare===
 
 
 
Download the EdShare bundle for EPrints 3.2 from http://files.eprints.org/735/
 
 
 
Untar the file
 
 
 
tar xvfz edshare_3-2.tgz
 
 
 
The edshare_3-2 directory contains a trunk directory and a default directory. Copy the contents of the trunk directory into your EPRINTS_ROOT
 
 
 
cp -r trunk/* EPRINTS_ROOT
 
 
 
Next copy the contents of the trunk directory into your archive directory
 
 
 
cp -r default/* EPRINTS_ROOT/archives/ARCHIVEID/
 
 
 
Now update the database structure
 
 
 
EPRINTS_ROOT/bin/epadmin update_database_structure ARCHIVEID
 
 
 
To complete the install restart your webserver using your prefered method.
 
 
 
If you have any difficulties with the above process or have any suggestions for improvements of EdShare please contact mcsweeney.patrick@gmail.com
 
 
 
===EdShare on EPrints 3.3===
 
 
 
The EdShare for EPrints 3.2 package is known not to work on EPrints 3.3. For this we are sorry.
 
 
 
It is the OneShare team's ambition to make a version of EdShare for EPrints 3.3 but as yet we haven't had time to do it. The intention is that EdShare will become a set of EPrints Bazaar plugins. Which should make it easier to maintain and upgrade.
 
 
 
If you want to encourage us please send enthusiastic emails to mcsweeney.patrick@gmail.com. Thank you for your patience.
