Sametime 3D patch set

The Sametime 3D Patch Set project is a snapshot of the OpenSim? source tree with some backported patches.

Prerequisites

you need to have the following tools installed:

• linux machine (ubuntu is recommended, SLES 11 and similar will do)
• mono 2.4.2
• python
• gnu make

and, if you are going to use git to get the source tree:

• git

also, if you want to have monit keep an eye on your installation, you need

• monit

Accessing the source code

The tree itself is hosted on github where you can download the latest version. you can either download via the download button or you can clone the git repository:

% git clone git://github.com/drscofield/opensim.git
% cd opensim
% git checkout -b sametime-3d origin/sametime-3d

Building OpenSim?

The build process is fairly straight forward:

% make clean all

Configuring the install process & runtime shell

Next you need to configure the install process & runtime shell. To do that you need to copy the example shell config file to the top-level opensim directory:

% cp shell/shell.cfg.example NAME.cfg

you can use pretty much any name for your copy of the shell config file, I use the hostname of the server; for example, zurich.cfg.

Edit the file and adapt to your environment (all variables should be explained in the example file), save and install by invoking make with the name of your shell config file (without the .cfg):

% make NAME

Getting the latest version of the code base

To get the latest version of the code base you either download a new snapshot of the tree (see above) or, if you are using git to obtain the source tree, you just need to do a

% git pull

Optional: Monit watchdog

to get monit to keep an eye on your opensim server(s) recommended!? you need to install monit and then add the following two lines to your monitrc:

include /opt/opensim/etc/system.monitrc

and restart monit.
