Fixed:

> missing link to http://openacs.org/doc/openacs-4-6-2/files/analog-dev.cfg.txt

> http://openacs.org/doc/openacs-4-6-2/individual-programs.html

Removed the link altogether - removed all links to files actually in

the tarball

Using symlink in openacs.xsl

----------------------------------------------------------------------

In qmail section, link to download page for ucspi and qmail

Decided I didn't care

added.

Could not repro.

Changed to 755.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

>Optimizing Postgres:

Added postgres tuning instructions

----------------------------------------------------------------------

>For compiling nsopenssl, this was necessary on Debian:

Added note.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

>If you are on Oracle, you have to su - oracle, then su to root to get

Added note.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

>now: groupadd web

Already mentioned in the doc.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

>For some reason, the include and sample-config.tcl files were owned by

>500.500 instead of root root. So:

>chown -R root.root include sample.config.tcl

owned by remadmin in reference platform. Seems harmless so didn't add anything to instructions.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

>bin and lib were group owned by staff. I changed that to root as well:

>chown -R root.root bin lib modules

could not repro

Changed default suggestion to --analyze (once per day) to be conservative due to forum thread about full analyze affecting performance due to locking
