XBT TRACKER Installation

Note, the article reproduced from: Http://www.visigod.com/xbt-tracker/installation

Slightly modified.

The XBT Tracker (XBTT) can run on Unix/linux or Windows. Please check the tutorial that fits.

Using Unix/linux

The XBTT must is compiled from source on Unix/linux. You are need shell and root access to compile and run XBTT. You also need the following Packages:boost-devel Mysql-devel,mysql-server (here to add server, otherwise the subsequent database connection will be problematic) gcc-c++ Subversion

To install this required packages your can run the following commands in your server:

Installing the required packages on Debian
1 2 3	Apt-get Install g++ Libboost-date-time-dev libboost-dev \ Libboost-filesystem-dev Libboost-program-options-dev libboost-regex-dev \ make Subversion Zlib1g-dev

Installing the required packages on CentOS, Fedora or Red Hat
1	Install boost-devel gcc-c++ mysql-devel Subversion

If for some reason the boost libraries are still on the "old" version, you can do the following:

Install Boost Manually
1 2 3 4 5 6	[PHP] view plain copy cd/usr/local/src/wget Http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.44.0/boost _1_44_0.tar.gz/download tar xvzf boost_1_44_0.tar.gz cd boost_1_44_0/bootstrap.sh./bjam Install

Then Create a folder in your server and type the following:

1 2 3 4

SVN Co https://xbtt.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/XBTT/trunk/ XBT/misc XBT/Misc SVN Co https://xbtt.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/XBTT/Trunk /xbt/Tracker xbt/Tracker CD xbt/Tracker . /make.sh

After the server was compiled you have a xbt_tracker binary under Xbt/tracker. Copy this binary to the directory where you'll run XBTT along with the Xbt_tracker.conf.default which is on the same fo Lder. You'll end up with two files in your XBT directory:the Xbt_tracker and the Xbt_tracker.conf.default. Rename the Xbt_tracker.conf.default to xbt_tracker.conf.

We are using/home/xbt_tracker as an example
1 2 3 4 5	CP /Home/xbt_tracker/ CP /Home/xbt_tracker/ CP /Home/xbt_tracker/ CD/home/xbt_tracker/ MV Xbt_tracker.conf.default xbt_tracker.conf

We now need to create a database to is used with XBTT. can use phpMyAdmin for the MySQL command to create it. The example below using the MySQL client:

I did not install phpmyadmin here, so I executed it directly from the command line.

Before you do so, start the MYSQLD service, set the password, and so on.

[plain] view plain copy/etc/init.d/mysqld start mysqladmin-u root Password * * * mysql-u root-p Enter password

The user is then added to the database:

CREATE USER ' XBT_tracker ' @ ' localhost ' identified by ' I_tracker_password ';
GRANT USAGE  on  to ' Xbt_tracker ' @ ' localhost ' identified by ' I_tracker_password ';
CREATE DATABASE   not EXISTS ' xbt_tracker ';
GRANT  All Privileges  on ' xbt_ to ' xbt_tracker ' @ ' localhost ';

After the "database is" created we need to import the default SQL so we previously copied into our Xbt_tracker home direct Ory. Just Type the following command in the shell of your server:
