HOWTO: install Darwin Calendar on Centos 5

[Guy-32]

Hi,

Here's a quick guide which I've put together on installing Darwin  
server on Centos.

Note:
--------
I built this in a virtual system running Proxmox, inside which I was  
running Centos 5 standard 5.2.1 as an openVZ

This is also replicated on my Blog: http://www.rho.cc/Blog


----------------
CREATE Storage
----------------

dd if=/dev/zero of=/calData.dsk bs=1024k count=1024

mke2fs /calData.dsk

vzctl set 119 --devnodes loop0:rw --save  # on the proxmox side of the  
server
losetup /dev/loop0 /calData.dsk

mount -o user_xattr /dev/loop0 /var/calData/

mkdir /var/calData/root
mkdir /var/calData/data

chown daemon:daemon /var/calData/root
chown daemon:daemon /var/calData/data


----------------
Make sure you're All up to date and have all the necessary extras via  
yum
----------------

yum -y update

yum install -y zlib-devel subversion gcc openssl-devel libevent  
libevent-devel sqlite-devel krb5-server.i386 krb5-workstation.i386  
mod_auth_kerb.i386

----------------
Build and Install python 2.5
----------------

wget http://python.org/ftp/python/2.5/Python-2.5.tgz
tar xvfz Python-2.5.tgz
cd Python-2.5

./configure --prefix=/usr  --with-system-zlib
make
make install

----------------
install setuptools
----------------

http://www.errorhelp.com/search/details/74034/importerror-no-module-named-setuptools

wget http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/s/setuptools/setuptools-0.6c8.tar.gz#md5 
=0e9bbe1466f3ee29588cc09d3211a010
tar xfvz setuptools-0.6c8.tar.gz
cd setuptools-0.6c8
python setup.py build
python setup.py install

----------------
Install python's SQLite
----------------

wget http://oss.itsystementwicklung.de/download/pysqlite/2.5/2.5.5/pysqlite-2.5.5.tar.gz
cd pysqlite-2.5.5
python setup.py build
python setup.py install

----------------
Fetch Darwin calendarServer etc..
----------------

svn co http://svn.calendarserver.org/repository/calendarserver/CalendarServer/trunk 
  CalendarServer
svn co http://svn.calendarserver.org/repository/calendarserver/CalDAVClientLibrary/trunk 
  CalDAVClientLibrary
svn co http://svn.calendarserver.org/repository/calendarserver/PyKerberos/trunk 
  PyKerneros
cd PyKerneros
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/kerberos/bin
python setup.py build
python setup.py install

----------------
Build the calendar Server, this should now pull and compile any other  
parts required.
----------------

cd CalendarServer
./run -s

----------------
Install
----------------

./run -v -i /     # installs caldavd into / directory and below

mkdir -p /usr/share/caldavd
ln -s /usr/bin /usr/share/caldavd/bin

ln -s /usr/caldavd /etc/caldavd

copy accounts.xml, sudoers.plist into /etc/caldavd and edit either  
manually or with the ClientLibrary stuff.
edit /etc/caldavd/caldavd.plist to your environment. specifically  
allow plaintext authentication and disabling digest worked for me.

----------------
Start it running
----------------

/usr/bin/caldavd -X -f /etc/caldavd/caldavd.plist

----------------

---- may not be needed as memcached is included -----

wget http://www.danga.com/memcached/dist/memcached-1.4.0.tar.gz

tar zxpfv memcached*
cd memcached*
./configure
make install
----------------

make sure memcache has been installed along with libevent and ldconfig  
point to /usr/local/lib

-----------------------------

Did you try to make an RPM out of that?
I would love to see a calendarserver rpm for Red Hat/CentOS/Fedora that
would
automatically handle all the dependencies for both building and running.

Thanks,
Pim

No I've not tried creating an RPM...I guess it's something to look  
into.  It should be possible to compile all the bits and create a  
single package containing everything necessary to get it running.

I'm no expert in RPM management but I'll give it a go unless someone  
else sticks their hand in the air.
