*If using eclipse, you will want to install egit and m2e (Help > Install New Software > All Available Sites > search for ‘egit’ and ‘m2e’ and install each).

MySQL Setup

...

You will want to create a mysql user named 'oscar' with the password 'oscar' and grant this user all permissions to your databases. The easiest way to perform these mysql operations is to use mysql workbench.

...

The user oscar@localhost will be used for all mysql operations from this point on, rather than root@localhost.

Getting the Latest Version of Oscar

...

To clone Oscar from gerrit, you will have create an account on gerrit - the code review system of choice for Oscar – generate an ssh key, and link it to your account. In terminal, follow the steps below:

...

cd /home/username/workspace/ (mkdir workspace first if this directory does not exist)
git clone ssh://<your username>@source.oscartools.org:29418/oscar

Setting Up a Custom Tomcat Installation

...

Download the OscarSetup.zip file from the google docs and unzip it into the user directory.

Next you will have to copy the tomcat-local folder into your local workspace

Setting Up the Oscar Database

Don’t do this unless you have to. Instead ask for the latest MySQL dump from someone who cares. If you can’t find anyone, do it this way.

...

mysql> create database drugref;
mysql> use drugref;
mysql> source drugref.sql;

Building and Running Oscar

Copy the files into your home folder

...

sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat6

sudo nano /etc/profile/

mv /home/mohawk/workspace/oscar_source/oscar/target/oscar-SNAPSHOT.war $CATALINA_BASE/webapps/oscar.war
