Version 10 of Wub Step-by-Step

Updated 2010-01-21 11:24:14 by jblz

This is a page dedicated to step by step instructions for installing, using, and configuring the Wub web server.

1. Install Tcl 8.6

Wub depends on features only available in Tcl 8.6. One option is to install ActiveTcl 8.6 on your platform.

Install ActiveTcl 8.6 on Linux (32 bit)

The urls may change, but the game remains the same: download ActiveTcl 8.6, decompress it, run the install script, update teacup, and use teacup to get all the ActiveTcl goodies.

    wget http://downloads.activestate.com/ActiveTcl/Linux/8.6.0/ActiveTcl8.6.0.0b2.291226-linux-ix86-threaded.tar.gz
    tar -zxvf ActiveTcl8.6.0.0b2.291226-linux-ix86-threaded.tar.gz
    cd ActiveTcl8.6.0.0b2.291226-linux-ix86-threaded
    ./install.sh
    cd /opt/ActiveTcl-8.6/bin
    ./teacup update-self
    ./teacup update    

2. Install Wub

Since Wub is under active development, it is highly recommended that you download the latest source from wub.googlecode.com. You'll need a subversion version control client to do this. On debian / ubuntu, you can install subversion via apt-get:

    sudo apt-get install subversion

Then download wub:

    svn checkout http://wub.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ wub
