Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to Missing permission namespace in dotLRN

Posted by Walter McGinnis on
Don or Yon,

How to get OpenACS is alluded to in the dotLRN installation
instructions (get the latest OpenACS from CVS with link to a
good, but pre-OpenACS 4.5 beta, document), but isn't spelled
out explicitly.

"The latest" could be interpreted as either the latest from
development (although this isn't from necessarily from v4.5,
which is what the instructions say they need) or the latest from
the 4.5 branch.  There is also a note about which packages are
necessary to support dotLRN.  Unless I'm mistaken checking
out acs-core doesn't work in the context of the 4.5 branch.  It is
definitely helpful to be able to limit the packages downloaded.

Can either of you two post the exact command line process you
go through, please?  I think this will help clarify whether people
should be using the development branch, the 4.5 beta branch, or
whatever.

Thanks,
