Installation instructions
This section outlines how-to install and make use of knotes in your own Plone sites. It requires a relational database, which is easy to set up alongside Zope.
Prerequisites
For successfull a installation of KNotes you will need the following:
- Zope (goes without saying realy)
- We have tested KNotes on Zope versions up to and including 2.8.7. This does not mean that KNotes will not work in versions greater than this, but performance can not be guaranteed.
- CMF-1.4 (min)
- CMF is an add-on product for Zope to build Content Management Systems. You should use the CMF version that comes bundled with Plone.
- CMFPlone-2
- We have tested KNotes with version of Plone upto and including Plone 2.1.2.
- ZAttachmentAttribute
- ZAttachmentAttribute is a ingeniweb product for handling file uploads. We recommend using version 2.3.
- ZAAPlugins
- A collection of ZAttachment Plugins from ingeniweb. Used to provide previews & information on file attachments.
In addition to the above, you will need access to a suitable database server and a python adapter for connecting from within Zope. The system has been fully tested with:
- PostgreSQL
- PostgreSQL is a powerful, open source relational database system. It has more than 15 years of active development and a proven architecture that has earned it a strong reputation for reliability, data integrity, and correctness.
We have tested KNotes & PostgreSQL using the psycopg database adapter. - MySQL
- We have tested KNotes & MySQL using the MySQLdb database adapter.
Please seek advice on installing these product from the relavant website.
There is no reason why KNotes will not not work with other databases, as long as there is Zope support, however you will need to make changes to KNotes source code. contact us for further information
