1) First check if what we need is there and make initial clean-up

[root@localhost src]# rpm -qa | grep ming
mingetty-1.07-5
[root@localhost src]#
**Need to get Ming**

[root@localhost src]# rpm -qa | grep libpng
libpng10-1.0.18-2
libpng10-devel-1.0.18-2
libpng-devel-1.2.8-2
libpng-1.2.8-2
[root@localhost src]#
**Libpng is good to go**

[root@localhost src]# rpm -qa | grep gd
gdk-pixbuf-gnome-0.22.0-18.fc4.2
gd-2.0.33-2
gdb-6.3.0.0-1.84
gdbm-devel-1.8.0-25
gdbm-1.8.0-25
gdk-pixbuf-0.22.0-18.fc4.2
gdk-pixbuf-devel-0.22.0-18.fc4.2
php-gd-5.0.4-10.5

sysklogd-1.4.1-30
gdm-2.6.0.8-16
gd-devel-2.0.33-2
aspell-gd-0.50-2
[root@localhost src]#
**GD is good to go**

*********** Changed on 03/27/06
Needed to compile GD inorder to get Chameleon running.
Basically PHP needs to be compiled against a fresh GD with freetype support

2) Ming

wget http://easynews.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/ming/ming-0.3beta1.tar.gz
tar -xzvf ming-0.3beta1.tar.gz
cd ming-0.3beta1
make
make static
cd php_ext/
make
make install

echo “Don’t forget to add ‘extension=php_ming.so’ to php.ini!”

3) Pdflib

wget http://www.pdflib.com/products/pdflib/download/602src/PDFlib-Lite-6.0.2.tar.gz
tar -xzvf PDFlib-Lite-6.0.2.tar.gz
cd PDFlib-Lite-6.0.2
./configure
make
make install

—-Update ldconfig
Add /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf
Run : /sbin/ldconfig

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

4) Proj.4

tar -xzvf proj-4.4.9.tar.gz
cd proj-4.4.9
cd nad/
ls
cp ../../proj-nad27-1.2.tar.gz .
tar -xzvf proj-nad27-1.2.tar.gz
cd ..
./configure
make
make install

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

5) GDAL

wget http://www.gdal.org/dl/gdal-1.3.1.tar.gz
mkdir gdal
cd gdal/
wget http://gdal.org/dl/gdal-1.3.1.tar.gz
tar -xzvf gdal-1.3.1.tar.gz
cd gdal-1.3.1
./configure
make ogr-all
make install
which gdalinfo

*********** Changed APR 03/28/06
Installed the ECW SDK (do a configure, make and install
Installed the MrSid SDK (moved to /usr/local)

Added ECW, Grass, and MrSid support
[root@localhost gdal-1.3.1]# ./configure –with-ecw –with-grass=/usr/local/grass_602rc4/grass-6.0.2RC4/ –with-mrsid=/usr/local/GeoExpressSDK/

Then, needed to edit the GDALMake.opt file to change:
< -lxmlparse
> -lexpat

Then do the normal:
make ogr-all
make install

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

6) GEOS

wget http://geos.refractions.net/geos-2.2.1.tar.bz2
ls
tar –help
tar -xjvf geos-2.2.1.tar.bz2
ls
cd geos-2.2.1
ls
./configure
more INSTALL
make
make install

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

7) POSTGRESQL

tar -xzvf postgresql-8.1.2.tar.gz
cd postgresql-8.1.2

NOTE the LDFLAGS here… this is to support GEOS for postGIS
LDFLAGS=-lstdc++ ./configure –with-perl –prefix=/usr/local/pgsql_8_1_2

gmake
gmake install

Add the shared library path to /etc/ld.so.conf :
/usr/local/pgsql_8_1_2/lib
Run /sbin/ldconfig

Run make install in the ./doc directory to install the documentation

Finally add the following to the profile file to make paths available:
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/pgsql/bin
MANPATH=$MANPATH:/usr/local/pgsql/man
export MANPATH

Add the postgis user
useradd postgis
passwd xxxxxxx

There is already a data repository location at:
/var/lib/pgsql

LOG IN AS POSTGRES!!!
Make a database and launch Postgres
Change the directory to the postgis home directory

initdb ./data
[postgis@localhost pgsql]$ postmaster -D ./data/ > ./data/logfile.txt 2>&1 &
[1] 18409
[postgis@localhost pgsql]$
[postgis@localhost pgsql]$
[postgis@localhost pgsql]$ psql -l
List of databases
Name | Owner | Encoding
———–+———+———-
postgres | postgis | UTF8
template0 | postgis | UTF8
template1 | postgis | UTF8
(3 rows)

[postgis@localhost pgsql]$ createuser xxxxxxx
Shall the new role be a superuser? (y/n) y
CREATE ROLE
[postgis@localhost pgsql]$ which createuser
/usr/local/pgsql_8_1_2/bin/createuser
[postgis@localhost pgsql]$

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

10) POSTGIS

Just make sure that the Postgresql is configured with the LDFLAGS variable set
and that the GEOS software is downloaded and installed from Refractions.

./configure –with-proj –with-geos –with-pgsql
make
make install

Now we can create the database:
createdb -O xxxxxx test_db
createlang -U xxxxxx plpgsql test_db
psql -f /usr/local/pgsql_8_1_2/share/postgresql/contrib/lwpostgis.sql -d test_db
(if you get an error here it is most likely because you did not do a /sbin/ldconfig after changing
/etc/ld.so.conf to contain the /usr/local/lib directory.)

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

11) PHP

##./configure –prefix=/usr/local/php4 –program-suffix=4 –enable-force-cgi-redirect –with-config-file-path=/etc/httpd/ –with-gd –with-jpeg –with-png –with-tiff –with-zlib –with-freetype –without-ttf –with-mysql –with-regex=system –enable-dbase –enable-dbx –enable-versioning –with-pgsql=/usr/local/pgsql_8_1_2/
## Changed 03/27/06 to add new GD with freetype for Chameleon install
[root@localhost php-4.4.2]# ./configure –prefix=/usr/local/php4 –program-suffix=4 –enable-force-cgi-redirect –with-config-file-path=/etc/httpd/ –with-gd=/usr/local/ –with-jpeg –with-png –with-tiff –with-zlib –with-freetype-dir –without-ttf –with-mysql –with-regex=system –enable-dbase –enable-dbx –enable-versioning –with-pgsql=/usr/local/pgsql_8_1_2/

make
make install

strip sapi/cgi/php
cp sapi/cgi/php /var/www/cgi-bin/php4
cp php.ini-dist /etc/httpd/php.ini

Made the following mod to /etc/httpd/php.ini:
; Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside.
;extension_dir = “./”
extension_dir = “/etc/httpd/php_mods”

mkdir /etc/httpd/php_mods

Added the following to /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

#
# For PHP scripts as CGI-BIN
#
AddType application/x-httpd-php-cgi .php4 .phtml
Action application/x-httpd-php-cgi /cgi-bin/php4

Now re-start the server:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart
Stopping httpd: [ OK ]
Starting httpd: [ OK ]

11) MAPSERVER

./configure –with-jpeg –with-gd –with-freetype –with-zlib –with-png –with-pdf –without-tiff –with-proj –with-threads –with-ogr –with-gdal –with-postgis –with-wfs –with-wmsclient –with-wfsclient –enable-debug –with-php=/src/php/php-4.4.2

make
cp legend mapserv scalebar /var/www/cgi-bin/
cp mapscript/php3/php_mapscript.so /etc/httpd/php_mods/
