Installing PhiloLogic4 on Ubuntu

• The following dependencies need to be installed:

  • libxml2-dev
  • libxslt-dev
  • zlib1g-dev
  • apache2
  • libgdbm-dev
  • libgdbm-dev
  • liblz4-tool

  Run the following command:

  sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev libxslt-dev zlib1g-dev apache2 libgdbm-dev liblz4-tool brotli ripgrep

• Install pip3 (not the version from Ubuntu repos since it breaks pyproject.toml builds). First delete the python3-setuptools Ubuntu package if present: sudo apt purge python3-setuptools, then run: wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py && python3 get-pip.py

• Run install script inside the PhiloLogic4 directory

  ./install.sh

• Set-up Apache:

  • enable mod_rewrite: sudo a2enmod rewrite
  • enable mod_cgi: sudo a2enmod cgi
  • enable brotli: sudo a2enmod brotli
  • Make sure to set AllowOverride to all for the directory containined your philologic databases in your Apache config
