Installing

Install FFmpeg with homebrew. You'll need to install it with a couple flags for webm and the AAC audio codec.

sharelatex (non-docker) installation on a ubuntu 16.04 server

Installing ShareLaTex on Ubuntu 16.04

Use this as-is without any warranty, and don't bug ShareLatex project members if there are problems with my instructions. They officialy support docker installation only.

This gist summarize the actions I did to setup a pure ShareLaTex community edition on a bare linux ubuntu 16.04 server (no docker). I intentionnaly tried to stick to distribution practice for running daemons (via runit, and not via a custom my_init + setuser wrapper).

I basically took ShareLaTeX receipt to build their docker and adapted it.

Installing boost on Windows using MinGW-w64 (gcc 64-bit)

Installing boost on Windows using MinGW-w64 (gcc 64-bit)

Introduction

Boost is easy when you are using headers or pre-compiled binaries for visual studio, but it can be a pain to compile from source on windows, especially when you want the 64-bit version of MinGW to use gcc/g++. This installation process should be thorough enough to simply copy and paste commands, but robust enough to install everything you need.

Note: if you need to install any of the libraries that need dependencies, see this great answer from stack overflow

Get files needed for install

Get the MinGW installer mingw-w64-install.exe from Sourceforge
Get the boost_1_68_0.zip source from Sourceforge
__Note: This should work perfectly w
