This document explains how to install the Plumi from subversion, code versioning management software.

Steps 1-4 explain how to install plone-2.5.5. If you already know this or already have it installed skip to step 5.

1. Grab the Plone 2.5.5 Unified Installer from  here

 wget https://launchpad.net/plone/2.5/2.5.5/+download/Plone-2.5.5-UnifiedInstaller.tgz

2. Unzip etc:

tar zxvf Plone-2.5.5-UnifiedInstaller.tgz

This gives us a copy of a folder called Plone-2.5.5-UnifiedInstaller?.

sudo mv Plone-2.5.5-UnifiedInstaller /opt/

3. Apply the patch found  here. This may be not required any more! Need to check''

ie, edit /opt/Plone-2.5.5-UnifiedInstaller?/install.sh by adding this:

echo "patching PIL to disable TK support ..."
# patch to disable TK support in PIL
cat >> setup.py.patch << _PIL_PATCH

at line 456 with your favourite text editor (vim/pico/nano/gedit/etc). It should look like this:

455 cd $PIL_DIR

4. Install Plone-2.5.5:

   cd Plone-2.5.5-UnifiedInstaller
   sudo ./install.sh
   

Either remember or take note of the admin password. Or, preferably, notice that there is a file called /opt/Plone-2.5.5/adminPassword.txt that has this info in it.

5. Grab the latest plumi 0.2.2-rc5 tag from svn:

   cd /opt
   sudo svn co https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/Plumi/tags/plumi-0.2.2-rc5 plumi-0.2.2-rc5
   

This creates a folder called plumi-0.2.2-rc5 which contains all the extra Products you need.

You could use  https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/Plumi/branches/plumi-0.2.x as the argument to "svn co" if you wanted to do development on that plumi 0.2.x release branch. see here :  http://dev.plone.org/collective/browser/Plumi/branches/

Also, you can check for the latest tags to use from the plumi 0.2.x series here:  http://dev.plone.org/collective/browser/Plumi/tags/

The actual trunk of Plumi ( https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/Plumi/trunk) is currently (Nov/2008) only for development of plumi 0.3 and requires Plone 3.x

6. Edit the configs to notice the Plumi products. The two files are:

/opt/Plone-2.5.5/zeocluster/client1/etc/zope.conf
/opt/Plone-2.5.5/zeocluster/client2/etc/zope.conf

Add the following line under the products section:

products /opt/plumi-0.2.2-rc5

7. Install the python egg imsvdex

sudo /opt/Plone-2.5.5/Python-2.4.4/bin/easy_install imsvdex

8. Start the Zope/Plone? server:

   sudo /opt/Plone-2.5.5/zeocluster/bin/startcluster.sh
   

9. Grab yr browser, go to what is known as  the ZMI (or  here, they point to the same place). You will need to enter the admin/password combo from step 4 at this point.

In the top right corner you will see the Add Products drop down menu. Choose "Plone Site", and fill out the form. Whatever you put into the ID field will be the URL of your site. Eg:  http://localhost:8080/the_id_field

10. Goto your new Plone site and in the top right you will see Preferences. Click that, then choose Add/Remove? Products from the top of the left column.

You should only need to install 'ATVideo', 'PlumiSkin?', 'PressRoom?' - all the rest of the products will be pulled in by the installers of those three products.

Now you have a video sharing site!

By default there is a user called Plumi with a random password. You should change this in User and Group Administration. Also, the zope admin user (under whose name you added the plumi products) cannot post vids - as they are not a user of the plone site.

To configure transcoding, see /opt/plumi-0.2.2-rc5/indytube/INSTALL.plone

If you have any problems, see /opt/plumi-0.2.2-rc5/INSTALL.txt
