If you plan to run Blooki as a standalone server, there is nothing to install. Assuming <code>blooki-app</code> is a current directory, the server can be started by running the following command: </p> <pre><code> &gt; perl blooki.pl --port 81 </code></pre> <p>Alternatively, if you have perl associated with .pl extension you should be able to just double click on blooki.pl file to start blooki daemon server. The server will use port 80 by default.<br /> <br /> To install Blooki to use it with your webserver as <span class="caps">CGI</span>/mod_perl script type the following:</p> <pre><code> &gt; perl Makefile.PL &gt; make &gt; make test &gt; make install </code></pre> <p>This will:</p> <ul> <li>Detect whether you have a webserver available to set proper default values</li> <li>Create Blooki configuration file populated with the values you enter</li> <li>Create .htaccess file(s) that match your configuration, and</li> <li>Copy all application and configuration files into proper locations.</li> </ul> <p>Users on Windows platform may try <code>nmake</code> instead of <code>make</code>. If no <code>make</code> is available, then <code>Makefile.PL</code> can be run with <code>--nomake</code> option that will also install necessary files: </p> <pre><code> &gt; perl Makefile.PL --nomake </code></pre> <p>You can still run tests using <code>perl test.pl</code> command. </p> <p>The script will also detect whether you have mod_rewrite and mod_perl extensions available and will generate necessary configuration files based on information you provide.</p> <p>Although webserver detection in the installation script currently works only for Apache server, the way package and configuration files are organized should allow you to run Blooki with any other webserver with minimum or no changes.</p> 2004-09-28T05:12:41Z
