Installation Documentation Requirements

By the OpenACS Community. This section is a collection of documentation requirements that have been expressed in the OpenACS forums to 4th July 2003.

OpenACS installation documentation should meet the following requirements. No significance has been given to the order presented, topic breadth or depth here.

state installation prerequisites. For example: "You should read through the installation process to familiarize yourself with the installation process, before beginning an installation."
list critical decisions (perhaps as questions) that need to be made before starting: which OS, which DB, which aolserver version, system name, dependencies et cetera. Maybe summarize options as tables or decision-trees. For example, "As you proceed throughout the installation, you will be acting on decisions that have an impact on how the remaining part of the system is installed. Here is a list of questions you should answer before beginning."
list pre-installation assumptions
Show chronological overview of the process of installing a system to full working status: Install operating system with supporting software, configure with preparations for OpenACS, RDBMS(s) install and configure, Webserver install and configure, OpenACS install and configure, post-install work
