To run the test-suite, this module needs an up-to-date Zebra server (as of Tue Dec 13 17:41:05 GMT 2005) running on z3950.indexdata.com port 2100, using isam:b and recognising a normal user "user" with password "frog" and an administrator "admin" with password "fish". Long ago, when I first started to provide this, I needed to build an up-to-date Zebra in a custom universe, so as not to interfere with the Debian packages used elsewhere on test, and to start the server with appropriate configuration. Below are notes on how I did it, BUT NONE OF THIS SHOULD BE NECESSARY ANY MORE. ssh test mkdir -p universe/src cd universe/src cvs -q -d ":pserver:mike@bagel.indexdata.dk:/home/cvsroot" co yaz cvs -q -d ":pserver:mike@bagel.indexdata.dk:/home/cvsroot" co zebra cvs -q -d ":pserver:mike@bagel.indexdata.dk:/home/cvsroot" co ZOOM-Perl cd yaz ./buildconf.sh LDFLAGS=-L/home/mike/universe/lib CPPFLAGS=-I/home/mike/universe/include ./configure --prefix=/home/mike/universe make make check make install cd ../zebra ./buildconf.sh LDFLAGS=-L/home/mike/universe/lib CPPFLAGS=-I/home/mike/universe/include ./configure --prefix=/home/mike/universe make make check make install cd ../ZOOM-Perl/archive sudo cp -p test-server.init /etc/init.d/zoom-perl-server sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/zoom-perl-server cd /etc/rc2.d sudo ln -s ../init.d/zoom-perl-server S99zoom-perl-server sudo /etc/init.d/zoom-perl-server start On test, two ranges of ports are left open through the firewall: 2100-2120 are open, meant for Z servers 8001-8020 are open, meant for web services We arbitrarily choose port 2118 for this service.
