Recipe for installing MnoGoSearch on OSX (this is a first draft on
this, please be indulgent whit us)
ingredients :
a Mac supporting OSX ;-) (an iMac is cool also)
Tenon iTools pkg (www.tenon.com) including Apache, wuftpd, sendmail,
mysql, php4 etc
gcc for compilation
shell tcsh for some commands
MnoGoSearch installation for OSX. (with iTools 6.02 Tenon Apache)
MnoGoSearch Version : 3.1.12 - Platform : OSX 10.0.0
In first install theses pkg on a fresh machine with OSX
- Install iTools 6.02 (www.tenon.com) + MySQL package 3.23 (the Tenon pkg)
- Untar.
- install iTools and configure your DNS, VHost, and a cgi-bin with
appropriate rights 0755 in wuftpd (ftpaccess) for cgi's.
- Compile MnoGoSearch with gcc and MnoGo instructions (you've got
normally one warning)
- install MnoGo
- Modify 'configure' file of MySQL :
search for 'mysql.h'
add the lines below
elif test -f /usr/local/mysql/include/mysql.h; then
MYSQL_INCDIR=/usr/local/mysql/include
MYSQL_LIBDIR=/usr/local/mysql/lib
- Then open tcsh (this is for a french install :-) :
su
cd ~/openup/../mnogoxxxx
./configure --with-mysql
./make
./make install
cd /usr/local/mysql/bin
./mysqladmin -p (choose passw for mysql root)
./mysqladmin create mngosearch
./mysql mngosearch < ...../create/mysql/create.txt
./mysql mngosearch < ...../create/stopwords/stop.fr.txt
- Finally
- Duplicate '-dist' files of /usr/local/mngosearch and delete -dist extension.
- Configure now theses files at your convenience.
- Copy bin/search.cgi into you virtualHost (apache) cgi-bin folder
- put 0755 rights on it
- Launch sbin/indexer
- wait... (depend on the number of url's you crawl)
- when finished go with browser at http://yourhost/cgi-bin/search.cgi
and testing a lot
