Installing Pike, Roxen & ChiliMoon on different platforms
Posted at 2004-11-16 by Sascha Nemecek
No, but you might need to restart Roxen with --remove-dumped.
When you are already running a custom Roxen-Pike setup, do not forget to update all symlinks, so that they pointing to the new Pike installation (e.g. /roxen/server-4.0.172/bin/roxen).

You have to fill out the registration form at download.roxen.com.
The license agreement says that you are allowed to install one "Web Site", but the intention is only to limit the number of CMS sites. The restrictions built in to the product only applies to CMS modules and there is nothing to stop you from fully taking advantage of the WebServer parts.

cd /usr/local/roxen/server/mysql
mkdir libexec
mkdir share
ln -s /usr/local/libexec/mysqld libexec
ln -s /usr/local/share/mysql share Adjust the paths in the last two lines with paths to match wherever MySQL is installed on your system. ChiliMoon supplies a script in the mysql directory to do this job for you.
Note: be aware that you might be restricted to certain MySQL versions. (see according FAQ)

The problem is due to Redhat’s new thread library.
Workaround: Add the following lines to ../local/environment:
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1
export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL See Bug3492

You find an error message in the debug log:
Failed to start MySQL. Aborting If you copied your configurations directory from an older Roxen, delete the file <roxenhome>/configurations/_mysql/my.cnf so that 4.0 can recreate it with correct options. It's probably missing a
user = root line.
Note: If you run the Roxen process with another UID/GID you can also use this UID/GID for the MySQL process (don't forget to chown/chgrp the mysql-files to the UID/GID before starting Roxen with this combination).
Applies to: Roxen (4.0) ,

They are just normal TAR files. You might want to rename them to have a glance into the containing files.

If you choose the binary installation files all libraries are compiled in. You just need your native database libraries to run Roxen / ChiliMoon with a different database than MySQL.
If you want to install the source package or build your own Pike, you have to be sure to install the necessary libraries in advance:
GMP and Nettle are both bundled with Pike source distributions and are built during the Pike build process if you don't have a local installation.

Anonymous access to the CVS should be possible through:
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.lysator.liu.se:/cvsroot/ChiliMoon login
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.lysator.liu.se:/cvsroot/ChiliMoon co ChiliMoon/2004 Applies to: ChiliMoon

There are no real issues to be taken care of when migrating from Roxen 4.0 to ChiliMoon at the moment.
One should however keep in mind that all compatibility layers for older Roxen versions have been stripped. So if you use them, please reconsider first updating your RXML code.
