 <h1><a name="siikirperl">SiikirPerl</a></h1>
 <p>How to install the Perl Siikir CMS.</p>
 <p>
 </p>
 <hr />
 <h1><a name="perlbrew">Perlbrew</a></h1>
 <p>Recommended to install a custom Perl w/ perlbrew instead of using your vendor
 version of Perl. I made a dedicated user, <code>bob</code> that &quot;owns&quot; the Perl
 installation.</p>
 <pre>
  [bob]$ sudo mkdir /opt/perl5 &amp;&amp; chown bob:bob /opt/perl5
  [bob]$ export PERLBREW_ROOT=&quot;/opt/perl5&quot;
  [bob]$ wget -O - <a href="http://install.perlbrew.pl">http://install.perlbrew.pl</a> | bash
  [bob]$ perlbrew init
  [bob]$ perlbrew install perl-5.18.0
  [bob]$ perlbrew switch perl-5.18.0</pre>
 <p>After installing Perl, make a symlink so that <code>/opt/perl</code> points to the Perl
 root, for example:</p>
 <pre>
  /opt/perl -&gt; /opt/perl5/perls/perl-5.18.0</pre>
 <p>So that <code>/opt/perl/bin/perl</code> exists.</p>
 <p>
 </p>
 <hr />
 <h1><a name="apache_configuration">Apache Configuration</a></h1>
 <p>You'll need <code>mod_fcgid</code>, <code>mod_rewrite</code>, and probably <code>mod_suexec</code>. On
 Debian, install the package <code>apache2-suexec-custom</code> so that you can change
 suexec to use <code>/home</code> as its root (not needed if you plan to put your site
 under <code>/var/www</code>). The suexec config file is usually at
 <code>/etc/apache2/suexec/www-data</code>.</p>
 <p>Typical VirtualHost configuration for mod_fcgid:</p>
 <pre>
  &lt;VirtualHost *:80&gt;
    ServerName www.yoursite.com
    DocumentRoot /home/www/public_html
    CustomLog /home/www/logs/access_log combined
    ErrorLog /home/www/logs/error_log
    SuexecUserGroup www www
    &lt;Directory &quot;/home/www/public_html&quot;&gt;
      Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI
      AllowOverride All
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
    &lt;/Directory&gt;
    &lt;Directory &quot;/home/www/public_html/fcgi&quot;&gt;
      SetHandler fcgid-script
      Options +ExecCGI
      AllowOverride All
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
    &lt;/Directory&gt;
  &lt;/VirtualHost&gt;</pre>
 <p>Follow that up with a <code>.htaccess</code> in your document root:</p>
 <pre>
  &lt;IfModule mod_rewrite.c&gt;
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /fcgi/index.cgi [L]
    RewriteRule ^$ /fcgi/index.cgi [L]
  &lt;/IfModule&gt;</pre>
 <p>
 </p>
 <hr />
 <h1><a name="perl_modules">Perl Modules</a></h1>
 <p>The typical Siikir installation requires these modules. Install them using
 cpanminus as your Perl user (<code>bob</code> in my case).</p>
 <pre>
  $ cpan App::cpanminus</pre>
 <p>The required modules (install each with <code>cpanm $NAME</code>):</p>
 <pre>
  CGI::Fast
  FCGI
  JSON
  JSON::XS
  Image::Magick*
  LWP::UserAgent
  Mail::Sendmail
  Template*
  Digest::SHA1
  Net::DNS</pre>
 <p>You'll <strong>need</strong> JSON::XS. JSON::PP doesn't quite cut it.</p>
 <p>A couple modules have special cases and might not be installable via <code>cpanm</code>:</p>
 <p>
 </p>
 <h2><a name="image__magick">Image::Magick</a></h2>
 <p>Because of Image::Magick's ties with the C ImageMagick library, they need to
 be installed by hand. You'll need to download and build ImageMagick from
 imagemagick.org (it includes the Perl module, so you don't need to deal with
 CPAN at all for this one).</p>
 <pre>
  $ wget <a href="http://www.imagemagick.org/download/ImageMagick.tar.gz">http://www.imagemagick.org/download/ImageMagick.tar.gz</a>
  $ tar -xzvf ImageMagick.tar.gz
  $ cd ImageMagick-*/
  $ ./configure --with-perl
  $ make
  $ make perl-sources
  $ sudo make install
  $ sudo ldconfig /usr/local/lib
  $ cd PerlMagick
  $ perl Makefile.PL
  $ make
  $ make test
  $ make install</pre>
 <p><strong>Note:</strong> If your site ever starts crashing (particularly after a software
 update) saying it can't find <code>libmagick.so</code> or something, run
 <code>sudo ldconfig /usr/local/lib</code> to rebuild the library cache.</p>
 <p>
 </p>
 <h3><a name="misc_notes">Misc Notes</a></h3>
 <p>You'll need <code>libperl-dev</code> installed on the system (if you get an error like
 &quot;<code>can't find -lperl</code>&quot; when building).</p>
 <p>
 </p>
 <h2><a name="template">Template</a></h2>
 <p>I sometimes have problems installing Template::Toolkit through cpanm because
 the test suite doesn't pass completely (35 out of several thousand tests fail).
 You can just download and install this module by hand and it works.</p>
