update installation doc on wiki

[Peter Baumann]

for 9.2 final release, the outdated, complex installation pages needs to be consolidated.

[Peter Baumann]

PS: I am willing to contribute.

[Dimitar Misev]

Does this look fine: ​http://rasdaman.org/wiki/InstallFromSource

If yes then I'll cut down and simplify significantly ​http://rasdaman.org/wiki/Install

[Bang Pham Huu]

This looks fine ​http://rasdaman.org/wiki/InstallFromSource and it has reduced a lot of complex installation.

I'd suggest a section for "how to update Rasdaman with new patches" also.

[Dimitar Misev]

Good idea, I added wiki:InstallFromSource#Updatetheinstallation

[Dimitar Misev]

Bang I think this needs to be updated, can you please do that?

wiki:PetascopeEmbedded

[Peter Baumann]

I have consolidated the existing text, pls all check.

[Dimitar Misev]

I have streamlined now the installation docs:

​http://rasdaman.org/wiki/Platforms
​http://rasdaman.org/wiki/RequiredPackages
​​http://rasdaman.org/wiki/Install
​​http://rasdaman.org/wiki/InstallFromSource
​http://rasdaman.org/wiki/InstallFromRPM

[Peter Baumann]

have edited this wiki section, but still some work remains to be done.

• ​​http://rasdaman.org/wiki/InstallFromRPM : should focus solely on RPMs, but contains more - this redundancy should be merged with the Install page
• a variable should be defined in wiki:InstallFromSource to indicate the download directory
• some variables are used throughout → def should go to from wiki:InstallFromSource some more central place
• further general review of the texts

[Bang Pham Huu]

I've updated with new information for EmbeddedJetty, thanks Dimitar. ​http://rasdaman.org/wiki/PetascopeEmbedded

[Peter Baumann]

I have cleaned up doc in many places, trying to reduce redundancies, obsolted stuff, hard to understand descriptions, and the like. This still needs particular inspection:

• petascope pages (install, user, dev)
• rasdaman VM description is incomplete

[Dimitar Misev]

Ok I'll reassign now the petascope part to Vlad

[Dimitar Misev]

Is this ticket still valid? Considering the rasdaman installer and packages are most commonly used?

[Dimitar Misev]

I checked the petascope install page and it looks fine, and I have extended the VM description some time ago, so we can consider this ticket probably done.
