Topic: How do I get Kete if I want to do it on my own (DIY)?
Topic type:
An outline of what goes into setting up Kete on your own.
Originally written by Walter McGinnis, Kete Project Lead for Katipo Communications, Ltd.
Your responsibilities:
- The hardware and facilities to house it.
- A suitable network connection.
- The labour to install required software and Kete.
- The ability to troubleshoot problems if things go wrong.
Advantages:
- Their is no cost for Kete or its supporting software.
- You have complete control and you have everything necessary to run your site.
- It's a great opportunity to learn about what makes Kete, Ruby on Rails, Zebra, and the operating system you use tick.
Things to keep in mind:
- Installing and maintaining web applications may not be part of your or your organisation's skills.
- You or your organisation may incur costs to provide an adequate machine, facility for the machine, and network connection.
- You are ultimately responsible for solving your own problems if something is beyond your abilities. The Kete community can be a great resource though.
Where do I get more information:
- Technical Requirements
- Downloads
- Preparing a Debian Etch Host to be Deployed to for Kete
- Creating a Kete Development Environment on Mac OS X
Don't forget a Backup Plan!
