Installing CINEMA on Windows systems
CINEMA release 1.19 features an improved Installshield setup mechanism for CINEMA installation and configuration. All CINEMA components are packaged in a single Installshield executable.
Dependencies
CINEMA depends on the MySQL SQL database server and a web interface, using the Apache web server. It also depends on Tcl for executing CGI scripts. CINEMA v1.19 features an improved installation program that can automatically detect, and if necessary install MySQL 3.23.39, Tcl 8.3 and Apache 1.19.
Installation Options
The Win32 installation program supports three modes of installation namely, typical, minimal, and custom . The Typical mode is strongly recommended for new installations . In this mode, MySQL,
Tcl, Apache, and all CINEMA components (sipd, sipconf, sipum, sipua, and rtspd) are installed and configured. The Minimal mode is for existing installations that have MySQL, Apache and Tcl installed. In this mode, only CINEMA components are installed, but all configuration variables are updated suitably. The custom mode allows you to select the software pieces that you want to get installed.
Since custom and minimal modes are subsets of typical mode, this document describes typical mode installation in detail. Users who plan
to use minimal or custom modes should read the description of typical mode installation. They should also see the section on Troubleshooting . All users are also urged to read the common CINEMA FAQ.
