Step by Step installation Guide: FedoraGSearch (with ant)

Installing Fedora GSearch 

1.  Download genericsearch-2.2.zip from
                  http://www.fedora-commons.org/software/current

2.   Extract it and copy fedoragsearch.war to C:\fedora\tomcat\webapps

3.   Restart tomcat and you will get the fedorasearch directory.

4.   Open the configvalues.xml file from 
      C:\fedora\tomcat\webapps\fedoragsearch

      in order to edit it and save it in an external folder somewhere

5.   Edits: the main edits are related to changing the passswd for your 

      fedoraAdmin account, as well as the directory of your webserver

·         <property name="fedora.version" value="3.4" />

·         <property name="soap.deploy.pass" value="fedora" />

·         <!-- Change to my tomcat directory  if you are using external server   -->                     

·         <!-- property name="webserver.path" location="C:/apache-tomcat-6.0.28" / -->

·         <property name="webserver.path" location="${fedora.home}/tomcat" / >

·          <!-- <property name="basic.repos.1.fedorapass" value="fedoraAdmin" / -->

·         <!-- property name="srf.repos.1.fedorapass" value="fedoraAdmin" / -->

·         <!--property name="lucene.repos.1.fedorapass" value="fedoraAdmin" / -->

·         <!-- property name="test.repos.1.fedorapass" value="fedoraAdmin" / -->

·         <!-- property name="solr.repos.1.fedorapass" value="fedoraAdmin" / -->

·         <!-- property name="zebra.repos.1.fedorapass" value="fedoraAdmin" / -->

6.   Download ANT from http://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi

7.   Extract it to some directory
      (make directory to store your personal program files) 
      I made MyProgramFiles folder

8.   Copy configvalues.xml (edited one) file to   
       C:\MyProgramFiles\apache- ant-1.8.2\bin
 

9.    Run in cmd prompt

  C:\MyProgramFiles\apache-ant-1.8.2\bin >  
       ant -f configvalues.xml configOnWebServer

- It created index.properties in 
  C:\fedora\tomcat\webapps\fedoragsearch\WEB- INF\classes\configBasic\index\BasicIndex

- It created repository.properties in  
  C:\fedora\tomcat\webapps\fedoragsearch\WEB-INF\classes\configBasic\repository\BasicRepos

- It created fedorasearch.properies in 
  C:\fedora\tomcat\webapps\fedoragsearch\WEB-INF\classes\configBasic

- It created a folder gsearch  in  C:/fedora 
  (should have  C:\fedora\gsearch\BasicIndex (cfs,gen and other stuff)) 
                if not try copy & paste it from here or create new one it may work
                https://sourceforge.net/projects/dhillon/files/gsearch.zip/download

11.   In repository.properties file in

          C:\fedora\tomcat\webapps \fedoragsearch\WEB-INF\

          classes\configBasic\repository \BasicRepos

 Change : fedora/data/objects  to  data/objectStore

           #fgsrepository.fedoraObjectDir = C:/fedora/data/objects

           fgsrepository.fedoraObjectDir  = C:/fedora/data/objectStore

12.   Restart Tomcat and

        Run: http://localhost:8080/fedoragsearch/rest to test it.

13. 

         > LOG IN to Fedora
         > Add objects by going to File ---> ingest ---> multiple objects from
            directory

         > Demo --->(this will add all demo objects) or you can select one by one    

         > now select FOXML radio button and OK

     
              Go to Log file to get which objects are successfully ingested by going to--->
              C:\fedora\client\logs (which shows failed and success of objects)

            for eg demo:22  > go to  http://localhost:8080/fedoragsearch/rest   
         > update index > paste  in  pid : demo:22   and updateIndexformPID 
 
         (Result should be : Resulting number of index documents: 1)

          Now Go to browseIndex and enter in Start Item demo:22
          (Result should be :  1 terms found. )
 

Congratulations...
