Installation

Before you use the reBiND archiving system the data must be transformed into a suitable XML format. We use ABCD format (ABCD_in_reBiND) and to create ABCD XML files we recommend using the Biocase Provider Software (BPS). To install this software please follow the installation instructions in the BPS wiki.

reBiND Data Portal Prerequisites

To be able to install the reBiND archiving system you first need to install the eXist database, version 2.0 or later. the eXist database requires 512 MB of RAM and about 200 MB of disk space. The critical requirement is that Java be installed. We have tested the reBiND Data Portal with eXist version 2.1 and Java version 1.7. All software components have been tested on Windows 7 and Debian GNU/Linux 6.

  1. The rebind_module.jar is available from our subversion repository at: [http://ww2.biocase.org/svn/rebind/trunk/reBiND-eXist-Module/rebind-module.jar subversion rebind module. Add the rebind_module.jar to the eXist/lib/user directory. (On Windows if you have installed eXist on the C drive at C:\eXist-db then the module should be put here: C:\eXist-db\lib\user).
  2. Copy the folder rebind (available from our subersion repository) to eXist/webapp (on Windows C:\eXist-db\webapp).
