-======Evergreen on Gentoo VMWare image======
-This VMWare image was built following the documentation at:
-http://open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=installing_prerequisites_on_gentoo
-=====Hardware Requirements=====
-* I have been running this VMWare image on a laptop with 1.5GB of RAM. Any
-workstation with 1GB of RAM or more should be sufficient to run this VMWare
-image (the VMWare image itself only requires 512 MB of RAM).
-=====Getting started=====
-  * Download and install a VMWare product from http://vmware.com (VMWare Player and VMWare Server are both free downloads) onto your system.
-  * Extract the zipped Evergreen Gentoo VMWare image onto your hard drive to create a new directory, ''Evergreen_Gentoo''.
-  * In the VMWare product, open the VMWare image by pointing to ''Evergreen_Gentoo/Other Linux 2.6.x
-kernel.vmx'' file found in the unzipped directory. Your Evergreen Gentoo Linux operating system should begin booting up, presenting you with a login prompt.
-  * To log in:<code>
-userid: root
-password: openils</code>
-This is a Gentoo system with all of the Evergreen development dependencies
-installed. The Gentoo world was emerged 2007/09/21, and the Perl CPAN modules
-were last updated 2007/09/21. Evergreen SVN was checked out on 2007/09/21. This
-image was built with Evergreen 1.2.0-rc4.
-The hostname for this image was ''evergreen.sympatico.ca'' (yes, my fellow
-Canadians, I know how lame that is). Run the following command:<code>
-perl -MNet::Domain=hostfqdn -e 'print hostfqdn'</code>
-If the result is not **evergreen.sympatico.ca**, you must change the corresponding string
-in ''/openils/conf/opensrf.xml'' from **evergreen.sympatico.ca** to the result of the command
-for Evergreen to work properly.
-Note: If you do change your hostname, you will need to edit /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/Net/libnet.cfg and edit
-the line 'inet_domain' => 'sypatico.ca' for Net::Domain to respond properly.
-To start Evergreen:<code>
-(root) # su - opensrf
-(opensrf) $ cd /openils/bin
-(opensrf) $ osrf_ctl.sh -c /openils/conf/opensrf_core.xml -a start_router
-(opensrf) $ osrf_ctl.sh -c /openils/conf/opensrf_core.xml -a start_perl
-(opensrf) $ osrf_ctl.sh -c /openils/conf/opensrf_core.xml -a start_c</code>
-Once the services are up and running, switch to a new virtual terminal with ALT-F2 and
-start Apache:
-<code>
-(root) # /etc/init.d/apache2 start</code>
-To find out what your IP address is for this virtual machine:
-<code>(root) # /sbin/ifconfig</code>
-You will see something like:<code>
-eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:16:41:54:6B:FF
-          inet addr:192.168.1.128 </code>
-The number following "inet addr:" is your IP address.
-You can then open up that IP address in the browser on your host machine to
-see the beautiful default Evergreen catalog interface.
-To start the staff client:
-You can launch the staff client on your host operating system by
-pointing to that IP address and using "admin" as the username and "open-ils"
-as the password.
-To run the staff client on a Windows host, you can download a Windows version
-of the staff client from http://open-ils.org/downloads.php
-==== Changing the admin user's password ====
-There is a known problem with the 1.2.0-rc4 Gentoo VMWare image - it was inadvertently released with the wrong password for the ''admin'' user. You can change the password back to ''open-ils'' by running the following commands:
-<code>
-psql -U postgres evergreen
-# update actor.usr set passwd = 'open-ils' where usrname = 'admin';
-# \q
-</code>
