Installation and Setup of Infrastructure Components
Note: If you have Windows User Access Control turned on, you may need to disable it in order to complete the installation properly.
We also have reports that OpenCDS has been successfully installed on Linux and Macintosh machines, by users who are experts in those environments.
Also note: these instructions do not encompass setting up an Apelon DTS terminology service instance. Setting up such an instance is not required for use of OpenCDS. Documentation on setting up an Apelon DTS instance can be found at http://apelon-dts.sourceforge.net/.
NOTE: we have created a common, publicly accessible Apelon DTS instance for maintaining a central set of concepts for use by the OpenCDS community. Software to access this is included in the OpenCDS source distribution.
