The GotCloud software has been developed and tested on Linux Ubuntu 12.10 and 12.04.2 LTS. While it should work on other Linux systems, they have not yet been tested. It is not supported on Windows.
The GotCloud software can be downloaded from: ftp://share.sph.umich.edu/gotcloud/gotcloud_latest.tgz
Here are the steps for installing from the source tar:
- Create & change to the directory where you want gotcloud installed
- Download the gotcloud tar from the ftp site.
- Extract the tar
- Build (compile) the source
- Note: as the source builds, many messages will scroll through your terminal. You may even see some warnings. These messages are normal and expected. As long as the build does not end with an error, you have successfully built the source.
mkdir -p $GCHOME; cd $GCHOME # Replace $GCHOME with the location where you want it installed. wget ftp://share.sph.umich.edu/gotcloud/gotcloud_latest.tgz # Download tar xzf gotcloud_latest.tgz # Extract cd gotcloud/src; make; cd .. # Build source
GotCloud requires the following tools to be installed.
- java (java-common default-jre on ubuntu)
- make (make on ubuntu)
- libssl (libssl0.9.8 on ubuntu)
