AOLServer 4.0r10 README
Frank Bergmann <frank.bergmann@project-open.com>
This README and aolserver4.0r10.tar.bz2 are part of the ]project-open[
Linux installer.
This document describes the use of aolserver4.0r10.tar.bz2.

0. About the aolserver4.0r10
AOLServer is the "application server" of ]project-open[, handling
Web request, database pooling, overload behaviour etc.
aolserver4.0r10.tar.bz2 is a newer version and replaces aolserver3.3oacs.
This file describes how to switch a server from aolserver3.3oacs
to aolserver4.0r10.tar.bz2.
This file is NOT the ]project-open[ installer. It is just an add-on
to deal with issues of aolserver3.3oacs.
______________________________________________________________________
1. Prerequisits:
- We asume that you are running a standard ]project-open[
installation as after successfully installing the ]po[ Linux
installer.
- The aolserver4.0r10.tar.bz2 file, to be downloaded from
www.SourceForge.net
______________________________________________________________________
2. Installation Instructions
It will probably take you 15 minutes to go through the following
steps:
- Change directory to /usr/local/
- Unpack the aolserver4.0r10.tar.bz2:
- bzip2 -d aolserver4.0r10.tar.bz2
- tar xf aolserver4.0r10.tar
You should now have two "aolserver" directories in
/usr/local/ with the version numbers "3.3oacs" and "4.0r10".
- Modify /web/projop/etc/config.tcl:
- Replace any occurrence of "3.3oacs" by "4.0r10"
We assume that your server is named "projop". Please
replace with your respective servers.
- Modify /etc/inittab:
- Replace any occurrence of "3.3oacs" by "4.0r10"
That's it. aolserver4.0r10 is upward compatible with aolserver3.3oacs
with respect to ]project-open[
______________________________________________________________________
3. Trouble Shooting
- Please make sure to monitor the AOLServer log file. Any issues
can be found there: /web/projop/log/error.log. To monitor this
file please open up a new window and issue the command:
"tail -f /web/projop/log/error.log"
- Make sure that you don't start a new aolserver when there is still
the old version running. Make sure that "aolserver/4.0.10"
appears in your log files.
- You can manually start aolserver by issuing:
/usr/local/aolserver4.0r10/bin/nsd -f -t /web/projop/etc/config.tcl \
-u projop -g projop (or similar, depending on your server name).
