To set up a Next Generation Schema (NGS) MusicBrainz server, you can choose to download and setup a virtual machine image of NGS or you can install the server into your own Linux instance. |
|||
== MusicBrainz NGS Virtual Server Image == |
|||
Running an NGS virtual machine requires some Linux knowledge, but it vastly simpler than installing NGS from scratch. To use the virtual machine instance, follow these steps: |
|||
# Start downloading the latest [ftp://ftp.musicbrainz.org/pub/musicbrainz/ngs/MusicBrainz_NGS_vm_20110119.ova.7z virtual machine instance]. Beware: This is a large (3.8Gb) download! |
|||
# Download and install [http://virtualbox.org Virtual Box] on your machine. |
|||
# 7Unzip the virtual machine instance. If you don't have a 7unzip program, [http://www.7-zip.org/ download one]. |
|||
# Start Virtual Box and choose ''Import Appliance'' from the File menu. Select the newly unzipped file that ends in the .ova extension. |
|||
# Once Virtual Box has imported the appliance, select the imported virtual machine from the list of virtual machines and click on Start. |
|||
# Once the instance has started up, log in on the console using the username ''musicbrainz'' and password ''musicbrainz''. This account has sudo privileges -- if you would like to set a root passwd, you can do that via sudo. |
|||
# Run ''ifconfig'' and look at the ''inet addr'' for eth0. This is the IP address of your virtual machine. Note this IP address. |
|||
# Optional: The console for Virtual Box is very slow. I find it faster to SSH into the virtual box with a good terminal program. |
|||
# To start the NGS server, enter these commands: |
|||
musicbrainz@clear:~$ cd musicbrainz-server/script |
|||
musicbrainz@clear:~/musicbrainz-server/script$ ./musicbrainz_server.pl -r |
|||
Now you can reach the MusicBrainz server by pointing your browser to port 3000 of the IP address in step 7. If your IP address from step 7 was: 10.1.1.104, then point your browser to http://10.1.1.104:3000 |
|||
== Troubleshooting == |
|||
If the server does not start up, please follow these steps: |
|||
$ sudo su - |
|||
(the password is “musicbrainz”) |
|||
# cpan |
|||
cpan> install CGI::Expand |
|||
cpan> quit |
|||
# exit |
|||
== Settting up MusicBrainz NGS from source code == |
|||
(to be completed) |
