|
Most users of LON-CAPA should install LON-CAPA by |
|
<strong>simultaneously installing both RedHat 7.3 and LON-CAPA</strong>. |
|
Step-by-step directions are available |
|
<a href="http://install.lon-capa.org/docs/install/rh73.html">here</a>. |
|
</p> |
|
<p> |
|
The "LON-CAPA and RedHat 7.3" tarball is located |
|
<a |
|
href="http://install.loncapa.org/resources/loncapa-rh73install.tar">here</a>. |
|
</p> |
|
<p> |
|
<strong>LON-CAPA makes extensive use of perl modules</strong> from |
|
<a href="http://www.cpan.org/">CPAN</a>. To help you install all |
|
the necessary perl modules, there is a custom-compiled RPM for |
|
RedHat 7.* systems: |
|
<a href="http://install.lon-capa.org/resources/LON-CAPA-systemperl-3.5-rh7.i386.rpm"> |
|
LON-CAPA-systemperl-3.5-rh7.i386.rpm</a>. |
|
</p> |
|
<p> |
|
<i>For RedHat 6.2 systems, you should instead use |
|
<a href="http://install.lon-capa.org/resources/LON-CAPA-systemperl-3.5-1.i386.rpm"> |
|
LON-CAPA-systemperl-3.5-1.i386.rpm</a></i>. |
|
</p> |
|
<p> |
|
To install the systemperl RPM, you should enter the following command: |
|
</p> |
|
<blockquote> |
|
<table bgcolor="#aaaaaa" border="1"> |
|
<tr><td> |
|
<pre> |
|
rpm -Uvh --force LON-CAPA-systemperl-3.5-rh7.i386.rpm |
|
</pre> |
|
</td></tr></table> |
|
</blockquote> |
|
<p> |
|
The systemperl RPM will overwrite some of |
|
the files present in the regular RedHat perl RPM. |
|
This is okay; this will not likely cause problems. |
