postgesql + additional applications

Hello all,

I just install bitnami-lappstack on my Ubuntu 9.10 64bit system. What do i have to look for, if I would like to install additional applications that will communicate with the postgresql-server?

Cheers
Nicolas

Oh. … I just found out, that the binaries of bitnami-lappstack aren’t for 64bit system .. hmpf :-(

Hi nichess,

Currently it is not possible to install BitNami Modules on LAPPStack. You will need to install the applications manually.

If you want to follow a similar structure to our modules you can try to:
1- Create folder: <lapp_installdir>/apps/<app_name>/htdocs and copy there the application code.
2.- Create directory: <lapp_installdir>/apps/<app_name>/conf and inside the file <app_name>.conf, that will contain specific application configuration for apache. You can see an example below:

Alias /wordpress/ “/opt/app/lampstack-1.2-0/apps/wordpress/htdocs/”

Alias /wordpress “/opt/app/lampstack-1.2-0/apps/wordpress/htdocs”

<Directory “/opt/app/lampstack-1.2-0/apps/wordpress/htdocs”>

    Options Indexes MultiViews

    AllowOverride None

    Order allow,deny

    Allow from all

</Directory>

3.- Include the following line in apache2/conf/httpd.conf file:

Include <lapp_installdir>/apps/<app_name>/conf/<app_name>.conf

4.- Restart the servers running /ctlscript.sh restart.

If the application provides a configuration wizard it should appear when you go to the url http://127.0.0.1:8080/<app_name>

Depending on the application you are trying to install it may require to do additional steps. Let us know if you find any issues.

We do not have 64 bits version of the installers. In order to install the stack on a 64 bits system, you will need to install 32 bits compatibility libraries:

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs
