The easiest MIRC install ever. This will work best on a new install of Ubuntu Linux 10.04 (Lucid) Server
Add the required partner and custom repositories:
apt-get install python-software-properties apt-add-repository 'deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner' apt-add-repository ppa:timothy-john-phillips/mirc apt-get update
Install MIRC T36..
sudo apt-get -y install mirct36
You will be asked to agree to the terms and conditions of Sun Java. Agree to it all. Reboot the machine:
sudo reboot
Point a web browswer at the IP address of your Ubuntu machine and you should see your new MIRC site.
Included features
- Port 80 (default web port) rather than 8080
- Automatically starts at boot up and closes at shutdown.
- Java, JAI IO, and Tomcat all included.
I've made these repositories to simplify the installation of MIRC on Linux. It eliminates the fiddling with Java Image IO tools and Tomcat. I plan to update it with each release of MIRC.
Hope this helps someone.
Appreciate any feedback. - timothy.phillips@mh.org.au
