Installing Muralog
Muradoralog is a java application which is responsible for collecting the statistics information of fedora access and store into a database. The statistics information is pre-generated by MuraPEP and stored in a plain file. It should be deployed on the server which the fedora and MurePEP are deployed on.
Prerequisites
- Sun JDK 1.5.x
- Apache Ant 1.5.1 or later
- PostgreSQL 8.1
Instructions
- Create a database in PostgreSQL to store the statistics information if it is not existing. For example:
CREATE DATABASE "muradoralog" WITH ENCODING='SQL_ASCII' OWNER="fedoraAdmin";
- Download muradoralog from http://drama.ramp.org.au/software/
- Configuration
- Modify muradoralog.properties under the directory src to configure datasource parameters and the path of statistics file.By default, the statistics file will be found out in tomcat/logs/statistics.log.
- Modify mymanifest.mf to specify the libraries in the classpath if needed.
- Usage
Under the root directory of the package there are some commands you can use:
- #ant run This command will compile, package and execute the program in one go.
- #ant jar T his command will generate an executable jar package called muradoralog.jar.
- #java -jar muradoralog.jar This command will execute the jar package generated from above. Note: by default, to make it find the needed libraries, you must run it under the directory which has a subdirectory lib. Otherwise you need to edit mymanifest.mf for the classpath or specify the classpath by some other ways.
- #ant clean This command will clean all generated stuff.
- To make it automated process at predefined time intervals, you can setup a cron job. For example:
0 0 * * * /path/muradoralog/java -jar muradoralog.jar
This means that the job will be executed at middle night everyday.
