Building

Run the build.sh script to build the CMS system.

The build requires the cargo-audit and cargo-auditable Rust crates installed:

cargo install cargo-audit cargo-auditable

The Python part requires the Cython compiler installed:

apt install cython3 python3 build-essential

After installing all build dependencies, run the build script:

./build.sh

Installing

After building, run the install-users.sh script to create the user/group structure for CMS in the operating system:

./install-users.sh

After that, run the install.sh script. It will install the CMS system into /opt/cms/.

./install.sh

Then create the database inside of /opt/cms/etc/cms/db/. You may start with the example db:

cp -r ./example/db/* /opt/cms/etc/cms/db/

Configuring Apache httpd

Configure the CMS CGI binary as CGI ScriptAlias:

ScriptAlias /cms /opt/cms/libexec/cms-cgi/cms.cgi

<Directory /opt/cms/libexec/cms-cgi>
    AllowOverride None
    Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch -Indexes
    Require all granted
</Directory>
