Hi Demian,

 

Welcome! (A little belated).  Very glad to see you here.  Looking over
the edits, I'd say they seem good.   And timely... I'm going through a
clean install in an Ubuntu VM as I type this, and using the new
instructions as I go.  If I run into any snags, I'll let you know,
though so far it's been smooth sailing, even through the PDO-OCI stuff
(well, except for Oracle's download page throwing 404 errors).

 

Mark

Subject: [VuFind-General] Revised Ubuntu Installation Instructions

 

Just to follow up on my previous documentation message, I've done a
fairly major revision of the Ubuntu installation docs:

 

http://www.vufind.org/wiki/installation_ubuntu

 

I've tried to make things more consistent, both internally and with the
general Linux instructions, and I've linked sections together so the
user can choose their preferred path through the document and still get
all the details they need.

 

As suggested by Bernhard Eversberg, I've also created an "Importing
Records" page which is linked from the Ubuntu instructions -- it's just
a placeholder for the moment, but I'll flesh it out as I learn more
about this myself.  If anyone else wants to add some content in the
meantime, please feel free!

 

Also, don't worry -- I don't plan on bombarding this list with every
edit I make; I just wanted to point out my first major update.   I'm
always interested in feedback, though, so please feel free to contact me
(on or off list) if you have any thoughts about the documentation
process in the future.
