permalink Exhibit Source

Exhibit is nice, and could be customized to my needs. So, decided to download a source code from here.

cd /usr/local/var
svn checkout http://simile.mit.edu/repository/exhibit/branches/2.0 exhibit

downloaded the source code. Oops, pretty big, over 38MB :-O
To run Exhibit on the server,

cd exhibit
run

will start the Jetty server included in the code.
Got an error. Need to install java. Ran

sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre

and installed the recommended packages, too:

sudo apt-get install   equivs binfmt-support sun-java6-plugin ia32-sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-fonts ttf-baekmuk ttf-unfonts ttf-unfonts-core ttf-kochi-gothic ttf-sazanami-gothic ttf-kochi-mincho ttf-sazanami-mincho ttf-arphic-uming libmyodbc odbc-postgresql libct1

These days, the repository server in Japan is very slow :(( Need a break.

Gash, the terminal shows [[image: sun-java6-bin_DLJ.png]]
Donno what key should be hit to say Ok :-#
After some trial and errors, found TAB key works :->

Finished installing java (didn't installed the recommended packages yet), and ran

./run &

The Jetty server started successfully. After configuring my reverse-proxy server,http://exhibit.i4pace.net/exhibit/site/index.html showed the cover page for Exhibit. When running an example, got an error [[image: googlemaps_registration_key_request.png]]
Well, need a key for displaying a googlemap... Got a key for http://exhibit.i4pace.net from Google ABQIAAAA5rx0fP0jKPZGPYbWqbfu9xRp-edaKq-jRT1P7zhC_QXpGlaTbBQIYLZdNtFqV7rUKyzjYTgpmci34Q and edited presidents.html in /usr/local/var/exhibit/src/webapp/site/examples/presidents as follows:

<!-- google map key for http://127.0.0.1:8888/ -->
    <script src="http://exhibit.i4pace.net/exhibit/src/webapp/extensions/map/map-extension.js?gmapkey=ABQIAAAA5rx0fP0jKPZGPYbWqbfu9xRp-edaKq-jRT1P7zhC_QXpGlaTbBQIYLZdNtFqV7rUKyzjYTgpmci34Q" type="text/javascript"></script>

Worked!

Changed the reference to API in presidents.html at /usr/local/var/exhibit/src/webapp/site/examples/presidents as

<script href="http://exhibit.i4pace.net/exhibit/api/exhibit-api.js?bundle=false" type="text/javascript"></script>

Installed ant

sudo apt-get install ant

Ran

cd /usr/local/var/exhibit
ant

Past midnite... Sigh and rest.
