2. After installing the repository, run a yum update to pull in the patched version of libxml2 from the IFI CLAIMS repository.

Code Block
languagebash
sudo yum update libxml2
Note

Note: If there are conflicts, change the command line to yum --allowerasing update as directed. Reboot if kernel was upgraded.

43. Install the Alexandria client tools package.

Code Block
languagebash
sudo yum -y install perl-Alexandria-Library
sudo yum -y install perl-Alexandria-Client-Tools

54. Configure PostgreSQL user and password.

Note

Note: If you are installing the client tools on a different machine from your PostgreSQL instance, you must change the database entry in the configuration file /etc/alexandria.xml, e.g., the default should reflect the host (IP address) of your PostgreSQL instance. If you added a password for user alexandria (or changed user at all), you must modify @user/@password entries as well. For example, if your PostgreSQL instance is running on 10.234.211.3, the configuration entry will look like this:

Code Block
languagetext
<database name="alexandria" host="10.234.211.3" port="5432" user="alexandria" password="alexandria">
      <atts pg_errorlevel="0" AutoCommit="1" RaiseError="1" PrintError="0" LongTruncOk="0" LongReadLen="10485760" />
     </database>


65. Configure CLAIMS Direct user name and password.
Edit /etc/alexandria/apgupd.conf and replace CD_USER and CD_PASSWORD entries appropriately.

Note

Note: See Processing Server for a list of the parameters available. For example, to maintain the supplemental tables required for on-site family and citation functionality, you must add --api, e.g., CD_OTHER_OPTIONS='--api'


Code Block
languagebash
# Credentials given by IFI to access updates
CD_USER=test
CD_PASSWORD=test

76. Enable the service.

Code Block
languagebash
# Amazon
chkconfig apgupd
# CentOS / RHEL
systemctl enable apgupd.service

87. Start the service.

Code Block
languagebash
# Amazon
service apgupd start
# CentOS / RHEL
systemctl start apgupd.service


Note

Note: For new installations as well as any changes to your subscription, it may take 24 hours for full synchronization of your on-site instance.
