This document simply follows the instructions given in http://www.lsc-group.phys.uwm.edu/LDR/doc/ldr.pdf.

Prepare user and place where LDR will reside

As root:

 addgroup hanrobot
 adduser --ingroup hanrobot hanrobot
 mkdir -p /srv/LDR
 chown hanrobot:hanrobot /srv/LDR

We also need to suply 32bit libraries for python:

 aptitude install libc6-dev-i386 lib32z1 lib32stdc++6 lib32ncurses5 lib32z-dev libltdl3-dev libtool

Install LDR

As user hanrobot:

Install 32bit Python

We have Debian etch installed (AMD64) version but need the 32bit python binaries:

 mkdir ~/build
 cd ~/build
 wget http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.5.1/Python-2.5.1.tar.bz2
 tar -jxf Python-2.5.1.tar.bz2
 cd Python-2.5.1/
 CC="gcc -m32" CXX="g++ -m32" ./configure --prefix=/srv/LDR/opt/python-32bit
 make
 make install

Now add the path in ~/.bashrc:

 PATH=/srv/LDR/opt/python-32bit:$PATH

Install pacman

 cd
 wget -nd http://www.lsc-group.phys.uwm.edu/LDR/pacman-3.18.4.tar.gz
 tar xzf pacman-3.18.4.tar.gz
 cd pacman-3.18.4/
 source setup.sh

Set-up environment

 export LDR_LOCATION=/srv/LDR
 cd $LDR_LOCATION
 pacman -pretend-platform Fedora-4
 pacman -get LDR:LDR-Environment.pacman

Mysql-setup

 cd $LDR_LOCATION
 pacman -get LDR:LDR-MySQL.pacman
 source $LDR_LOCATION/setup.sh
 cd $LDR_LOCATION/mysql-server
 ./bin/mysqld --defaults-file=./my.cnf &

This will take a few minutes to create the 50 GB database.

Create user and grant permissions. ROOTPW is the password for the root user, hanrobot is the local user and ROBOTPW is the password for the hanrobot user:

 mysqladmin -u root password ROOTPW
 mysql --user=root --password=ROOTPW

In this shell enter:

 USE mysql;
 GRANT ALL ON lrc1000.* TO hanrobot@localhost IDENTIFIED BY ROBOTPW;
 GRANT ALL ON rli1000.* TO hanrobot@localhost IDENTIFIED BY ROBOTPW;
 GRANT ALL ON LDRmetadata.* TO hanrobot@localhost IDENTIFIED BY ROBOTPW;
 GRANT ALL ON LDRqueue.* TO hanrobot@localhost IDENTIFIED BY ROBOTPW;
 GRANT FILE ON *.* TO hanrobot@localhost IDENTIFIED BY ROBOTPW;
 QUIT;

Shutdown mysql

 mysqladmin --user=root --password=ROOTPW shutdown
