Mark's Vagrantfile-based CSpace installation

An almost completely unattended way to create a VirtualBox VM running Ubuntu 14.04.x LTS, and then run the automated CollectionSpace server installer within that VM:

  • Install both VirtualBox (https://www.virtualbox.org/) and Vagrant (https://www.vagrantup.com/).
  • Create a new directory.
  • cd to that new directory.
  • In a web browser, visit https://github.com/mark-cooper/cspace_vagrantbox
  • Download the file named Vagrantfile into that new directory. (E.g. right-click or Ctrl-click the Vagrantfile link and choose "Save Link As..." or equivalent, and choose that new directory as the place to download this file.)
  • From within the directory you created, enter: vagrant up (This will initiate the automated installer and start displaying progress messages; allow at least 30 minutes for installation to complete.
  • If any serious errors occur during installation, you can also retry that process; exit from the VM, then at your host computer's shell prompt, enter vagrant halt, vagrant destroy, and then vagrant up, to start the installation process over, once again.)

Following a successful installation, to fully set up your new CollectionSpace server, please continue with the instructions at https://wiki.collectionspace.org/display/DOC/Automated+installer+for+CollectionSpace+4.1#AutomatedinstallerforCollectionSpace4.1-Afterinstallation
