Installation

The UGM inventory system should be cross platform. Binary packages are available for windows. Linux and mac should be able to run from source. On windows it requires msvcp90.dll, which is closed source so not available from us. To run from source, make sure you have python2.6 or python2.7 installed, python-twisted, python-svn, and wxPython. Then it should be a simple matter of downloading the scripts and executing Main.py. To execute the binaries, make sure msvcp90.dll is on your path somehwere, then execute Inventory.bat. (It copies Inventory.exe and executes the copy, that way if there is an update available, it doesn't overwrite itself, which windows can't do.) (It should run in wine too). If you are running from source, then Inventory.exe doesn't exist and you'll need to run Main.py --noupdater to make it not look for updates. Also, it automatically grabs the latest version if one is available. That means you'll need to keep the server up to date as well. If you don't want to do that, or if you've made extensive local modifications, edit Inventory.bat and pass --noupdater to the Inventory invocation.
