Vufind

Vufind was tried on lubuntu 16.04 LTS version. The following was configuration carried out.

1. Installed latest 7.3 php version For installing latest versions of php or mariadb it needs to add new repositories in sources.list and with behind proxy the command was not working then tried to create export http_proxy and export https_proxy and ran add-apt-repository command with sudo -E and then it helped to download

2. Installed latest mariadb server and client through mariadb site

3. Installed default-jdk which is openjdk 8

4. Installed latest apache2

5. created file vufind.sh in /etc/profile.d/vufind.sh and added following lines

export JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/default-java"

export VUFIND_HOME="/usr/local/vufind"

export VUFIND_LOCAL_DIR="/usr/local/vufind/local"

6. Installed vufind 6.0 deb file and then ran http://localhost/vufind/Install/Home command while creating database it was throwing error as "connection error" then ran following in mysql which helped to solve "connection error"
