Hi Avni,

Ok, you can use the packages (and dependencies) on our community repository:

deb http://debian.adenu.ia.uned.es/apt hardy

Versions packaged there are quite old (OpenACS 5.4.3, IIRC), but you can install just the dependencies and use the openacs tarball. Please remember to install postgres first, if you need it.

Cheers, Héctor

To install the packages on Ubuntu 8.04

you need to

sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list

and add this line at the end

deb http://debian.adenu.ia.uned.es/apt hardy

Save the file then do

sudo apt-get update

From there you should be able to install all the dependencies for OpenACS with this command

apt-get install aolserver4 aolserver4-nscache aolserver4-nssha1 aolserver4-nspostgres postgresql

You probably still want to download the latest release of OpenACS or get it from CVS to complete the install which means you'll need to edit the config file to point to the right places. Most of the default config file should work on an Ubuntu install.
