Requirements
Hardware Requirements
- Disk: Philologic itself takes up approximately XX mb of disk
space. Each database you load will also require space for indices,
around XX mb for each XXX mb or data.
- Architecture: Although we have only tested on the X86 and
PPC architecture so far, we see no reason Philo could not be run on
other systems, perhaps with a little compilier directive tweaking.
Previous versions have run in production on Sparcs with no problem.
- Ram, Processor, etc: Philo isn't much of a processor or
memory hog and runs fairly fast with a small footprint. During the
loading of a database, it will chew up a significant amount of
processor time, so you might want to use nice or something like that to make sure it doesn't bring your other services to a crawl.
Software Requirements
- GCC (OS X users must have Developer Tools (http://developer.apple.com/tools/) installed)
- Agrep is required for similarity searching to function
- MySQL is required for bibliographic metadata handling (the Search:Terms button)
- To enable MySQL searching, you'll need the DBI and DBD::MySQL Perl modules.
- perl Unicode::String is required (http://search.cpan.org/dist/Unicode-String/)
- for RedHat Enterprise edition, /etc/selinux/config must be
edited so that SELINUX is disabled -- SELINUX=disabled. As far as we
can tell, this totally screws up philologic functionality because it
does not let cgis run outside of the designated environment.
