The BitNami Project was created to help spread the adoption of freely available, high quality, open source web applications. BitNami aims to make it easier than ever to discover, download and install Open Source software such as document and content management systems, wikis and blogging
software.
Here are some key features of "BitNami Liferay Stack":
Easy to Install
BitNami Stacks are built with one goal in mind: to make it as easy as possible to install open source software. Our nstallers completely automate he process of installing and onfiguring all of the software included in ach Stack, so you an have everything up and running in just a few clicks.
Independent
BitNami Stacks are completely self-contained, and therefore do not interfere with any software already installed on your system. For example, you can upgrade your system's MySQL or Apache Tomcat without fear of 'breaking' your BitNami Stack.
Integrated
By the time you click the 'finish' button on the installer, the whole stack will be integrated, configured and ready to go.
Relocatable
BitNami Stacks can be installed in any directory. This allows you to have multiple instances.
Requirements:
� Intel x86 or compatible processor
� Minimum of 512 MB RAM
� Minimum of 400 MB hard drive space
� An x86 Linux operating system
� TCP/IP protocol support
Installation instructions:
You will need to give it executable permissions:
chmod 755 bitnami-liferay-0.9-linux.bin
To begin the installation process, invoke from a shell or double-click on the file you have downloaded, and you will be greeted by the 'Welcome' screen. You will be asked to choose the installation folder. If the destination directory does not exist, it will be created as part of the installation.
The default listening port for the bundled Apache Tomcat is 8080 and for the bundled MySQL is 3006. If those ports are already in use by other applications, you will be prompted for alternate ports to use.
The next screen will ask you for a password. This password will be used to protect the MySQL root account.
Once the installation process has been completed, you will see the 'Installation Finished' page. You can choose to launch BitNami Liferay Stack at this point. If you do so, your default web browser will point you to the BitNami local site.
If you receive an error message during installation, please refer to the Troubleshooting section.
The rest of this guide assumes that you installed BitNami Liferay Stack in /home/user/liferay-0.9, and that you use port 8080 for Apache Tomcat and 3306 for MySQL.
