[Bug 563484] Re: [needs-packaging] etherpad - web based collaborative real-time editor

 

According to Etherpad.org there is a package which is the preferred method to install (not the above as presented by Mikko):
http://doc.etherpad.org/ep/pad/view/ro.lRwwt2zukr/latest

Basically, after enabling the partners reporsitory (so sun-java6-jdk
becomes available):

1. Add the following to /etc/apt/sources.list:
    deb http://etherpad.org/apt all .
2. apt-get update
3. apt-get install etherpad
4. Answer the questions (if any, depends on your system settings)
5. /etc/init.d/etherpad start
6. Go to localhost:9000

I have tested both (Mikko's and etherpad.org's package) on 10.04LTS VMs
and both resulted in a usable but only locally accessible install. When
trying to reach the Etherpad install from another host I got an error
about reaching www.false.com:9000. It seems a superdomains variable
needs to be set but I haven't found clear documentation about this.

You may also encounter memory error and the only way I could start the server was to reboot and then:
1- cd /usr/share/etherpad
2. sudo ./bin/run.sh
