The easiest MIRC install ever. This will work best on a new install of Ubuntu Linux 10.04 (Lucid) Server, 32-bit (i386).
Updated to T36 omega
Important: Designed for a 32-bit (i386) install, not 64-bit (amd64). All commands should be executed as root (or using sudo)
Add the required repositories and packages:
apt-get -y 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 apt-get -y install mirc36
You will be asked to agree to the terms and conditions of Sun Java. Agree to it all. 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.john.phillips@gmail.com
