Ocsigen server
------------------------------------------------------------------
Requirements:
=============
Compilers:
* ocaml and camlp4 (need version >= 3.12)
* a C compiler (tested with gcc-4.4.5)
Libraries:
* findlib
* react (tested with 0.9.2)
* ocamlssl (tested with 0.4.4)
* lwt (need version >= 2.3.0, with react and ssl support)
* ocamlnet (tested with 2.2.9 and 3.2, with netstring and netsys)
* pcre-ocaml (tested with 6.0.1)
* cryptokit (tested with 1.3)
* ocaml-text (tested with 0.3)
* tyxml (need version 2.0)
Optional libraries:
* ocamlsqlite3 (tested with 1.5.6)
* camlzip (tested with 1.0.4)
You may also use the dbm database (for example gdbm) instead of
sqlite. In that case, you need dbm with headers (libgdbm-dev package
for ex.)
If OCaml 3.12 and the needed libraries (findlib/react/lwt...) are not
installed on your computer and not available on your favorite linux
distribution, you may use the Ocsigen bunble GODI to install them
automatically, see:
http://ocsigen.org/install#bundle
http://godi.camlcity.org/godi/index.html
To run the native code version of ocsigen server, you may need to
generate cmxs files for the libraries you need, if they are not
included in your distribution, see:
http://ocsigen.org/ocsigenserver/manual/misc
------------------------------------------------------------------
Build instructions:
===================
* run "sh configure [options]" to generate 'Makefile.config'
- For the full list of options, run "sh configure --help".
* verify that 'Makefile.config' suits to your needs.
* run "make" to compile
* run "make install" as root to install
* [optional] run "make logrotate" as root to install logrotate
configuration files in /etc/logrotate.d
* [optional] run "make doc" to build the ocamldoc
* [optional] run "make install.doc" as root to install the ocamldoc
* run "make uninstall" to uninstall (almost) everything
------------------------------------------------------------------
Local testings:
===============
* run "make run.local" of "make run.opt.local"
in the ocsigen source directory.
* open http://localhost:8080/index.html in your browser
* if it does not work, look at the logs (see 'local/var/log/' in the
ocsgigen source directory) or run ocsigen with options -v or -V
(verbose and debug mode).
