This is an old revision of the document!
This is an attempt at a guide and a few helpful pointers for those who don't care to use the prepackaged NAV for Debian. The versions used here are Debian Etch and NAV 3.3.0-rc1.
Install NAV's runtime dependencies:
sudo aptitude install perl python java-virtual-machine apache2-mpm-prefork \ cricket php4-gd php4-pgsql postgresql-8.1 tomcat5.5 \ libapache2-mod-php4 libapache2-mod-python libpgjava \ libpg-perl libnetaddr-ip-perl libdbd-pg-perl \ libsnmp1.4-java libsnmp-session-perl python-pysnmp2 \ logrotate python-cheetah python-egenix-mxdatetime \ python-forgethtml python-forgetsql python-gammu \ python-ipy python-ldap python-psycopg python-rrd \ makepasswd wwwconfig-common samba-common
And, of course, NAV's build time dependencies:
sudo aptitude install FIXME
tar xvzf nav-3.3.0_rc1.tar.gz cd nav-3.3.0_rc1 autoconf ./configure export CLASSPATH=/usr/share/java/libsnmp-1.4.jar:/usr/share/java/postgresql.jar:/usr/share/java/servlet-api.jar make sudo make install
While still in the NAV source code directory.
/etc/postgresql/8.1/main/pg_hba.conf
, change ident sameuser
into md5
for local users connecting through UNIX sockets (except the postgres user)sudo invoke-rc.d postgresql-8.1 reload
Put this in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default-nav
:
ServerName nav.example.com ServerAdmin webmaster@example.com DirectoryIndex index.html index.html index.php index.cgi index.py AccessFileName .htaccess AddDefaultCharset UTF-8 AddHandler cgi-script .cgi DocumentRoot /usr/local/nav/apache/webroot <Directory /> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None </Directory> <Directory "/usr/local/nav/apache/webroot"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI AllowOverride All Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> LogLevel warn <Location /> # Let NAV authorize all access to this location PythonHeaderParserHandler nav.web PythonDebug on </Location>
Then run the following commands:
sudo a2dissite default sudo a2ensite default-nav sudo a2enmod php4 sudo a2enmod mod_python sudo invoke-rc.d apache2 force-reload
