INTERCHANGE README:
NAME
icrpm - Interchange RPM for Redhat Systems
VERSION
4.5.6
SYNOPSIS
rpm -Uvh interchange-4.5.6-5.rpm
DESCRIPTION
The Interchange 4 RPM is designed to integrate Interchange with a stock
Redhat installation. It places logs and run files in fairly standard
locations, i.e.:
Configuration
Configuration file is /etc/interchange.cfg. It is only writable by
root.
Data
Catalog directories, at least the demos, are located in
/var/lib/interchange.
Invocation
Invocation is the normal /etc/rc.d startup method. Interchange
installs to be active in run levels 3, 4, and 5; to be killed in
all.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not expect /usr/lib/interchange/bin/restart to
work!
Interchange uses a special invocation script, located at
/usr/lib/bin/interchange, to start the Interchange server. This is
called by /etc/rc.d/init.d/interchange.
Run Run files go in /var/run/interchange/*. The subdirectory is needed
to allow the Interchange user ID to write/create files.
Logs
Logs go in /var/log/interchange/*. The subdirectory is needed to
allow the Interchange user ID to write/create files.
ASSUMPTIONS
The Interchange RPM makes several assumptions:
Stock Apache
Interchange relies upon the following things in the Apache
installation:
For Red Hat Linux 6.x:
-- Server root in /home/httpd
-- ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/httpd/cgi-bin/
For Red Hat Linux 7.x:
-- Server root in /var/www
-- ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/cgi-bin/
In general:
-- Hostname as revealed by `hostname` is the ServerName
-- SuExec not enabled
If you have SuExec enabled, you are responsible for changing
permissions and running parameters appropriately. You can typically
disable SuEXEC by running `chmod u-s /usr/bin/suexec'.
If you want to continue to user suexec, you will have to compile the
appropriate INET mode link program and use it instead of VLINK.
Logs
Logs are located in /var/log/interchange. Interchange drops a file
in /etc/logrotate.d to do log rotation.
Run files
To place the logs, configuration, and run files in standard
Red Hat/LSB locations, Interchange relies on a special invocation
from /usr/lib/bin/interchange. In other words, don't expect
/usr/lib/interchange/bin/restart to work.
Interchange will be started by this command:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/interchange start
and will be re-started by this command:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/interchange restart
or possibly:
/usr/lib/bin/interchange -r
The run files, i.e. UNIX-domain socket, catalog status files, will
be placed in /var/run/interchange. That directory must be
owned/writable by the interchange user ID.
