Ubuntu Setup

When setting up new workstations with the Ubuntu Linux system the following pieces of software, plus their dependencies are installed. In addition to installing the listed packages some additional work needs to be done at this time to ensure ODBC/FreeTDS can talk to SQL Server 2005.

Linux Multi-Media

Linux Setup Old

Linux Symantec BackupExec

Linux Working with Multiple Names and Services

Linux Additional Notes

Reinstalling Grub

Preparations

Ensure something simliar to the following is in your .basrc file: 

export VIPSHOME=/usr/local/vips
export MANPATH=$MANPATH:$VIPSHOME/man
export PATH=$VIPSHOME/bin:"${PATH}"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$VIPSHOME/lib
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib32/pkgconfig:/usr/share/pkgconfig:$VIPSHOME/lib/pkgconfig:
  • sudo mkdir /usr/local/vips-X.XX
  • sudo ln -s /usr/local/vips-X.XX /usr/local/vips

cd into vips source code dir

  • ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/vips-X.XX
  • make
  • sudo make install

cd into nip2 source code dir

  • ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/vips-X.XX
  • make
  • sudo make install

Optional Extras

Nvidia

  • Not been checked for 12.04

To install the latest Nvidia drivers: 

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nvidia-current

VPN

  • sudo apt-get install pptpd pptp-linux network-manager-pptp bcrelay

ODBC/TDS

sudo apt-get install unixodbc unixodbc-dev unixodbc-bin libodbc1 odbcinst1debian2 tdsodbc php5-odbc freetds-bin freetds-common freetds-dev libct4 libsybdb5

Configuration

Add server details to the /etc/freetds/freetds.conf file, for example: 

[name]
host = name.full.server.address.com
port = 1433
tds version = 8.0  
client charset = CP1252

Add server details to the /etc/odbc.ini file, for example: 

[name]
Description = 
Driver = TDS
Servername = name
Database = dbname
UID = USERNAME
PWD = PASSWORD
Port= 1433

Set system details to the /etc/odbcinst.ini file, for example: 

[ODBC]
Trace           = No
TraceFile       = /tmp/sql.log
ForceTrace      = No
Pooling         = No

[TDS]
Description	= Freetds.org
Driver		= /usr/lib/odbc/libtdsodbc.so
Setup		= /usr/lib/odbc/libtdsS.so
FileUsage	= 1
dontdlclose	= 1
UsageCount	= 1

Tomcat

Several of these systems require additional programs from apt-get in addition to specific file downloads. At this time the process semms to work fine with the packages install in the general section above, the main required package will have been: openjdk-7-jdk.

  • The Tomcat binaries can be downloaded directly from their website. I downloaded the newest core binary, which at the time of writing was apache-tomcat-7.0.27.tar.gz.
  • Unpack the software directory from the downloaded file and move it to a good location, such as /usr/local/. I also set up a version free symbolic link to the downloaded folder, though I am not sure it will be needed.
tar xzvf apache-tomcat-7.0.27.tar.gz
sudo mv apache-tomcat-7.0.27 /usr/local/. 
sudo ln -s /usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0.27 /usr/local/apache-tomcat
  • The Tomcat service can then started up:
/usr/local/apache-tomcat/bin/startup.sh
  • Or shut down using:
/usr/local/apache-tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh
  • After startup, the default web applications included with Tomcat will be available by visiting http://localhost:8080/.
  • To make use of the Application Manager you will need to add user details to the /usr/local/apache-tomcat/conf/tomcat-users.xml file. For example adding lines similar to:
 <role rolename="manager-gui"/>
 <role rolename="manager-script"/>
 <role rolename="manager-jmx"/>
 <role rolename="manager-status"/>
 <user username="AdminUsername" password="XXXXXXXXXXX" 
   roles="manager-gui,manager-script,manager-jmx,manager-status"/>

For further information about configuration and setup see the documentation section of the Tomcat website.

Redirecting Tomcat services

  • Not been checked for 12.04
  • Install apache module:
sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-jk
  • Update/etc/libapache2-mod-jk workers.properties to add lines similar to:
workers.tomcat_home=/usr/local/apache-tomcat

workers.java_home=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk

worker.list=worker1, worker2

worker.worker1.port=8009
worker.worker1.host=localhost
worker.worker1.type=ajp13
worker.worker2.port=8009
worker.worker2.host=localhost
worker.worker2.type=ajp13
  • Update /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/jk.load to:
LoadModule jk_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_jk.so
JkWorkersFile /etc/libapache2-mod-jk/workers.properties
JkLogFile /var/log/apache2/mod_jk.log
JkLogLevel error
  • Restart apache2.
  • Restart tomcat.

Auto Startup

  • Not been checked for 12.04

Create a new text file: 

sudo gedit /etc/init.d/tomcat

Copy and paste the following code into the new file and save it. 

#!/bin/sh

case "$1" in
'start')
	/usr/local/apache-tomcat/bin/startup.sh
	;;
'stop')
	/usr/local/apache-tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh
	;;
*)
	echo "Usage: $0 { start | stop }"
	;;
esac
exit 0

The Tomcat server will now automatically start/shutdown up on Boot/Shutdown. It can also be manually started and shutdown using the following commands: 

sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat start

sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat stop

MediaWiki

Tex support requires: 

sudo apt-get install ocaml dvipng cjk-latex texlive-math-extra

Perlwikipedia:

sudo apt-get install libwww-mechanize-perl libxml-simple-perl

  • Then download the build the package from here.
