Anyone out there have a useful image of tip or close-to-tip versions? I’m not prepared to build an openemr image from scratch just so I can see if my 2 files (globals.php, backup.php) will work.
I merged in the changes from the tips into mine. However, there were so many changes in backup.php alone that my 3.1 VM is stumbling over it.
The developer appliance is up and working for me on at least one platform. I have a question about it, though. Apparently the PEAR libraries aren’t there. In order to get cross-platform tar capability, I need at least some of the PEAR package(s). Up until this appliance, none of the other linux or windows xampp platforms were missing PEAR’s Archive/Tar.php.
Can we get this support on future versions of the developer appliance?
Yep, this should be possible. Have you figured out which packages need to be installed in the developer appliance (mandriva 2008) for it to work. I can then simply add this to the following script below for the developer appliances (and also the cvs demos) to work. You won’t need to re-download the appliance, just will need to revert to snapshot on shutdown and restart it. (relatively recently had to do this with the gd package).
Also, if you start using this for development I have some quick re-install scripts that allow you to re-install openemr from the cvs directory without needing to re-start the appliance (thus, not losing work). It’s also very easy to create multiple cvs directories (ie devel tip, 310 branch, etc.) and quickly switch to test these by using these scripts.
