== Bazaar ==
* TODO: how to install bazaar. does <code>apt-get install bzr</code> return a version that is compatible with bzr 2.2 on the server?
 
== Mono 2.x ==
* apt-get install mono-2.0-runtime mono-xbuild libmono-microsoft-build2.0-cil monodevelop
 
* if you get this error: ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.Tar.TarArchive does not contain a definition for Close
** solution: sudo gacutil -u ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib; sudo gacutil --install csharp/ThirdParty/ICSharpCode/ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll
 
== NAnt ==
* on Ubuntu/Debian: apt-get install nant
** Problem: NAnt 0.85 (Build 0.85.2478.0; release; 10/14/2006) does not seem to support the task "solution" on Linux? <code>Invalid element &lt;solution&gt;. Unknown task or datatype.</code>
** Problem: exec spawn is not supported in 0.85
** Solution: copy binary zip from sourceforge (http://nant.sourceforge.net/nightly/latest/nant-bin.tar.gz), unzip, and change /usr/bin/nant to point at the latest NAnt.exe
** to avoid all the warnings "Could not load file or assembly" run: apt-get install libmono-microsoft-build2.0-cil
** to avoid problems finding log4net etc, make sure the property NAntBin.dir in your OpenPetra.build.config is set correctly
** Also you need to make a symbolic link:
ln -s /usr/lib/mono/2.0/Microsoft.CSharp.targets /usr/lib/mono/2.0/Microsoft.CSharp.Targets
 
== SQLite or PostgreSQL or MySQL ==
* apt-get install sqlite3 (requires 3.6.1 or higher; might need to use another repository, eg testing)
* or apt-get install postgresql
* or apt-get install mysql-server
 
== xgettext and msgfmt ==
* apt-get install gettext
 
== dos2unix ==
* this is needed for building releases (nant buildRelease)
* apt-get install tofrodos
 
= Get the source code =
The source code is managed with Bazaar.
 
Please understand that we will provide write permissions only to the core members of the development team, just to keep the project on one track (refered to as '' 'developer access' '' below). We very much need your contributions though, and we will aim to quickly deal with submitted patches and code. Please see our document on [[submitting patches and features]]!
 
Please follow the instructions at [[How to work with bazaar on the command line]] to get the source code
 
= Configuration of Development Environment =
Please check your OpenPetra.build.config file and make sure the paths are all adjusted to your system and the version numbers in the paths are correct.
 
This OpenPetra.build.config file is also the file where you set the database you want to use. If you want to switch the database system later, see [[Setup_of_Development_environment#Use_another_database_system]].
 
= NAnt script =
There is a central NAnt script that is able to generate a lot of code and is able to do all automated tasks in the OpenPetra project.
 
Please see [[Setup_of_Development_environment#NAnt_script|OpenPetra NAnt script]] for details
 
If you want to switch from SQLite to PostgreSQL which we recommend for serious development, please follow the instructions at [[Setup_of_Development_environment#Use_another_database_system]].
