Larry Burton commented on VCL-587: ---------------------------------- How best to proceed? Two things are necessary for an automated installation: scripts and custom data. Scripts could be put into an RPM to make installation of VCL just a "yum install". The custom data is by necessity external to the script. We could have just a file to edit. This is simplle and makes security a local matter. We could have a web site with an interactive page that generates a parameters file. This is perhaps easier for users. We could have an in-between approach of a downloadable script to emulate an interactive web page. To me, the web page on the VCL project page is most appealing. A second issue is the starting point of the host OS. What level of completeness of a LAMP server is assumed? With some work, an RPM could likely bring an OS to a common starting point. > Automated install script/tools > ------------------------------ > > Key: VCL-587 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-587 > Project: VCL > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Aaron Peeler > Attachments: create_new_self_signed_ca.sh, https_setup.sh, > install_vcl.sh, vcl_parameters_13.sh, vcl_pre_commands_13.sh > > > Placeholder for Dr. Larry Burton's automated install -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
