[LDTP-Dev] ldtp on Red Hat 3.4.3-9.EL4 installation Notes

[Harsha]

My experience installing ldtp on Red Hat 3.4.3-9.EL4

1. Praveen A (J4V4M4N) checked out the entire ldtp project(s) for me (Thank
you buddy)

2. I compiled the ldtp project (not pyldtp)
 Procedure:
 cd ~harsha/ldtp
 ./autogen.sh
 ./configure
 # make  (# means run as root)
 # make install
 cd python
 # ./setup.py build
 # ./setup.py install

3. I discoverd i had python:
 Python 2.3.4 (#1, Feb  2 2005, 11:44:49)
 [GCC 3.4.3 20041212 (Red Hat 3.4.3-9.EL4)] on linux2
 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
4. I installed python2.4 rpms (core and devel)
5. I set the <logfile>/home/harsha/EXAMPLES/gedit/gedit-log.xml</logfile>
values in gedit-execution.xml
5. Then I tried executing gedit-execution.xml
6. I got a log message saying python imaging library (PIL) is not installed
7. I downloaded PIL and again ran
 # python2.4 ~harsha/PIL/setup.py build
 # ~harsha/PIL/setup.py install
8. again i ran
 $ cd ~harsha/ldtp/python
 # python2.4 ./setup.py build
 # python2.4 setup.py install
 running install
 running build
 running build_py
 running install_lib
 copying build/lib/ldtputils.py -> /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages
 copying build/lib/ldtp.py -> /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages
 byte-compiling /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ldtputils.py to
ldtputils.pyc
 byte-compiling /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ldtp.py to ldtp.pyc
 running install_data

and gldap.py got copied to /usr/bin

9. Now I went to Start Menu/Preferences/Accesibility/Assistive Technology
Support <click>
   in the window that appears select "Enable Assistive Technology Support"
and say ok

10. I opened one more terminal and typed
 $ ldtp &
 (server should run right)

11. I opened gedit application
12. now cd ~harsha/EXAMPLES/gedit

13  run the command
 $ python2.4 /usr/bin/gldap.py gedit-execution.xml

14. and the Magic started to happen Hurray Yummy yummy!!!
 I am happy ;)
