I don't really know if anyone would care about this, but I did install the latest stable WebGUI on SuSE 10.1 64-bit from source, but not WRE. WRE wouldn't compile perl and I simply gave up. No, I know 10.1 is over 2 years old, but that's what was installed on my serveraxis virtual server. If anyone wants to know, you can't get an online 10.1 installation source, so your best bet is to find, download, and add the 10.1 DVD ISO to your repositories list.

Once again, Apache2::Request reared its ugly head on install and I conquered it. The latest is that the mod_apreq2 is in /usr/lib64/ and LoadModule will cack unless the libapreq2.so.3, which is in /usr/lib/ is at least symlinked into /usr/lib64.

The other stuff about missing -lldap returned (install openldap) and I still had to copy the perl stuff to compile libapreq2. I also compiled and installed ImageMagick from latest. I didn't get any warnings from testEnvironment.pl about ImageMagick, and I wasn't really certain if it was because it didn't check.

One of the things that I will put here for posterity because it gets glossed over is that (at least my install) assumes nothing is to be on the web unless it's ALLOWed. So, <Directory /path/to/uploads>allow from all</Directory> and <Directory /path/to/extras>allow from all</Directory> is important in the virtualhosts.

Well, now I'm back... for a while. Hope to chat w/y'all anon.

Oh, yeah. I'm just posting indicating it can be done... painstakingly... but yes.

Also, for my benefit, because I relied on my own notes of 2 years ago to get me going...

If you're going to install ImageMagick from source, you better be sure to have libjpeg, libpng, libtiff, and libgif (and the -devels for each) installed before you do it. Really REALLY nasty to get that "No decoder available for that file type" when webgui is making thumbnails.

Also, for my sanity, I'd remind myself to MAKE SURE YOU ACTUALLY CHANGE THE UPLOADS DIRECTORY IN /data/WebGUI/etc/yourdomain.conf (Gerald, if you don't, you'll get write failure errors to the /uploads folder that's in /data/WebGUI/www/uploads!)
