If this is the only version of AOLserver in use, or is the default version, create a symlink. If not, then be sure to use /usr/local/aolserver40r10 instead of /usr/local/aolserver in future steps and check any scripts and makefiles you run to ensure they use the correct path.

OpenACS looks for the Oracle driver at + /usr/local/aolserver/bin/ora8.so, but some versions of + nsoracle may create nsoracle.so instead. In that case, you + can symlink (ln -s nsoracle.so ora8.so) to fix it.

If you get errors like:
nspostgres.c: In function `Ns_PgTableList': nspostgres.c:679: warning: passing arg 3 of `Tcl_DStringAppend' as signed due to prototype
then PostGreSQL is probably not in the standard location. The location of PostGreSQL is very dependent on which method was used to install it. To correct the problem, replace LSB with the path to the path to your PostGreSQL installation. Often this is /usr/local/pgsql.
Another possibility is that you may need to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environmental variable. You may still get warnings, but sometimes this will fix things enough to work.
[root nspostgres]# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/pgsql/lib
You can use the ldd command to verify that all libraries are linked in: - ldd nspostgres.so -
If you run into problems with libpq.a do the following (and repeat the step above)
[root nspostgres]# ranlib /usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.a
If you run into problems with the linker, edit the Makefile. Add -lnsdb to the MODLIBS var.
MODLIBS = -L$(PGLIB) -lpq -lnsdb[root nsrewrite]# cd ../nssha1 -[root nssha1]# make
If the make fails you will have to edit nssha1.c. Comment out the following 2 lines (lines 139-140):
// typedef unsigned int u_int32_t; -// typedef unsigned char u_int8_t;
Now install nssha1:
[root nssha1]# make install
[root nssha1]# cd ../tDOM-0.7.8/unix
Edit the CONFIG file. Uncomment the instructions meant for AOLserver 4, but edit it to look like this:
../configure --enable-threads --disable-tdomalloc - --prefix=/usr/local/aolserver40r5 --with-tcl=/usr/local/lib

Add a database-specific wrapper script.�This script sets database environment variables before starting AOLserver; this allows the AOLserver instance can communicate with the database. There is one script each for Oracle and PostgreSQL. They don't conflict, so if you plan - to use both databases, install both.

Change startup script (optional).�If you want to run AOLserver on a port below 1024 (normally, for a webserver you will use 80), you will have to change the /var/lib/aolserver/service0/etc/daemontools/run script according to the documentation found there (namely: Add the -b yourip:yourport switch)
