Linux (Ubuntu) Installation - 4.1.9
This page contains installation instructions on installing iHRIS version 4.1.9 manually.
You may wish to see instructions on how to install iHRIS 4.2 for a simpler installation process. Though this is not encouraged for developers. You need to install the source code directly from launchpad so you have more control when you start working.
Supporting Software
First you should install Ubuntu and all the supporting software required by iHRIS by following the Linux (Ubuntu) Installation - Supporting Software instructions.
Note: Installing on ext4 filesystem? see this
Note: Unless specifically mentioned, all the commands below are run using a terminal. You can start this in Ubuntu by going to Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal. Any time a command begins with sudo it will prompt for your password because this will be run with administrative privileges. When you run sudo multiple times, only the first time will ask for your password.
Note: Some installation commands will prompt for inputs in the terminal window, usually with a blue background. The mouse doesn't work to click on options here. You can use Tab to move between options and the space bar to check or uncheck selections.
Note: Some commands will launch the gedit file editor. Look at the documentation if you need additional help.
