== 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 ==
*need to use Lenny Backports, since Lenny only provides Mono 1.x
echo "deb http://www.backports.org/debian lenny-backports main contrib non-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
apt-get install debian-backports-keyring
apt-get -t lenny-backports install mono-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
** another problem without a solution yet:  error CS0006: cannot find metadata file `ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll'
*** solution: I realised the symbolic link was broken.
sudo rm /usr/lib/mono/2.0/ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/mono/gac/ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib/0.85.5.452__1b03e6acf1164f73/ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll /usr/lib/mono/2.0/ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll
 
== NAnt ==
* apt-get -t lenny-backports 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
** In order to use mono 4.0 you need to make some changes on your /usr/bin/nant and comment the line before it. Make it look like this (with the corresponding path on your system).
#!/bin/sh
#exec /usr/bin/cli /usr/lib/NAnt/NAnt.exe "$@"
mono --runtime=v4.0 /usr/local/nant-0.91/bin/NAnt.exe "$@"
In order to run both (2.0 and 4.0) please have a look [http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/openpetraorg/index.php?title=Jenkins_CI_Server#NAnt here]
 
== 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 -t squeeze-backports install postgresql-9.0
* or apt-get install mysql-server
 
== xgettext and msgfmt ==
* apt-get install gettext
 
if <code>nant translationCompilePOFile</code> results in this error:
/usr/bin/msgfmt: C# compiler not found, try installing pnet
solution: ln -s /usr/bin/gmcs /usr/bin/mcs
 
== dos2unix ==
* this is needed for building releases (nant buildRelease)
* apt-get install tofrodos
 
== MonoDevelop ==
* see our page on [[MonoDevelop]] for some hints
 
= Get the source code =
The source code is managed with Bazaar.  
 
Follow the instructions at [[How to work with bazaar on the command line]] to get the source code.
 
Please have a look at the following page: [[Submitting patches and features]]!
 
= 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]].
