Using a VM with OpenMRS Pre-installed
Using the VM built at POSSE 2015
- Download Virtual Box so that you can load the VM: https://www.virtualbox.org
- Accept all default settings
- In Virtual Box, File -> Import Appliance... and select OpenMRS.ova
- Click Import
- Accept all default settings
- Select the newly imported virtual machine, then click File->Preferences (PC) or VirtualBox->Preferences (Mac), then Network, then Host-only Networks
- If you don't see a network adapter then +/add and accept the new adapter with default settings
- Then click Cancel/OK to accept settings
- Note: on Windows you may already see a network adapter, it is advisable to do the following
- Click the settings gear icon (settings for the selected VM), Network, Adapter 2, click drop-down menu next to Name:, and reselet "VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter" (this may seem odd, but you are doing great!), Click OK
- Select the newly imported machine in the lefthand panel and click "Start" (green arrow)
- Starting OpenMRS in the virtual machine
- Open a terminal in the VM and type:
- cd openmrs-core
- cd webapp
- mvn jetty:run
- When you see the following in terminal window "[INFO] Starting scanner at interval of 10 seconds", then open a browser on the VM and go to: http://localhost:8080/openmrs . This starts OpenMRS
- Open a terminal in the VM and type:
- To setup OpenMRS (in browser), you will need the mysql root username is jharvard, root password for the cs50 machine, which is "crimson"
- To stop the jetty server, type Ctrl+C in terminal where it is running
How the VM built at POSSE 2015 was created
- OpenMRS Developer's Guide Manual Install instructions (starting point): http://en.flossmanuals.net/openmrs-developers-guide/get-set-up/
- Documentation on cs50 image: https://manual.cs50.net/appliance/2015/
- Steps followed (within cs50 VM):
- to prevent our terminal commands from getting logged/sent back to Harvard, in terminal enter: no cs50
- installed maven using apt-get: sudo apt-get install maven
- updated JDK to 1.8 following these instructions: http://tecadmin.net/install-oracle-java-8-jdk-8-ubuntu-via-ppa/
- sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
- sudo apt-get update
- sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer
- verify that version has been updated to 1.8 with java -version
- grab the sourcecode for OpenMRS from github; in a terminal, type: git clone https://github.com/openmrs/openmrs-core.git
- mvn clean install (the next specified instruction to enter in terminal) was hitting an error at openmrs-web testing, so isntead we ran mvn clean install -DskipTests=true (recommended from: https://talk.openmrs.org/t/openmrs-api-failure-with-maven/2847)
- In Virtual Box, File -> Export Appliance...
- Accept all default settings
