Notes from June 4 POSSE

Names: Sonal, Esmail, Nannette, and Heidi

Important background

Questions

What's the difference between Sahana and Sahana-Eden?

How do we install this thing?

We're thinking the best practice would be to first do the user installation to make sure we can. Then, do the developer installation and see if you can build it.

  • <What we did>
  1. Click on Developer --> Click on Windows --> "InstallationGuidelines/Windows/Developer/Installer" (first choice). #Takes you to http://eden.sahanafoundation.org/wiki/InstallationGuidelines/Windows/Developer/Installer.
  2. NOW, select the .exe file
  3. To setup in Eclipse: http://eden.sahanafoundation.org/wiki/DeveloperGuidelines/Eclipse

The program is installed under C:\Program Files\Eden under XP, and C:\Program Files (x860) under Windows 7. cd into web2py and run python web2py.py. (If you don't have Python in your path, you may have to specify the path to the python interpreter, e.g., c:\Python27\python.exe .. check your own installation to see where python.exe is located).

At this point the program will fail with some permission problems :)

Fix coming up ...

What are some possible starting points?

Getting started with Sahana Eden http://systers.org/systers-dev/doku.php/ghc12osdssf

Plans moving forward

  • Heidi will email us a contact person from Sahana development
  • Our preferred contact method as a faculty group will be through email. If we do need to have group meetings, Skype
  • Sonal will focus on activities for a Fall class. Nannette and Esmail will focus on activities for a possible Spring class.
  • First objectives:Finish the developer installation, make sure we can compile, and actually run the program. Also, finish the user installation.
