Forum OpenACS Development: Re: Ideas for easier installation of OpenACS

Posted by Tom Jackson on
I just installed VMware on Linux. Installation looks very similar to what I had for app-install. It asks a bunch of questions about where to install stuff, and then it compiles and installs, then asks more questions, etc.

But once that is installed, it is easy to startup the Oasis/Linux.vmw and login. I'm sure that on Windows all this works much faster since they seldom give you any choices there.

Overall, pretty cool way to check out stuff, but then what?

It would be interesting to hear what users do once they decide this stuff is cool. Does this provide the motivation to figure out the typical install?

Can you really do an easy native install on Windows?
