[openZIM dev-l] cpu usage on kiwix-serve, ubuntu lucid alpha4
by Andy Rabagliati 04 Mar '10

04 Mar '10

Folks, Today I installed lucid alpha4 on my laptop, and pulled kiwix version 1282 from subversion. I had to change Depends: for kiwix to liblzma1 (from liblzma0) to get it to compile, which it did without any trouble. Some selected package versions :- Package: xapian-tools Version: 1.0.18-1 Package: xulrunner Version: 1.8.1.16+nobinonly-0ubuntu1 Package: libunac1-dev Version: 1.8.0-2 Package: liblzma-dev Version: 4.999.9beta+20091116-1 Package: libunac1 Version: 1.8.0-2 Package: libltdl-dev Version: 2.2.6b-2ubuntu1 kiwix-serve (with index) runs, but after the first access cpu load rises to 100%. Do I need to pull a newer version of any of these packages ? Cheers, Andy!

Hi Andy, thank you very much for your feedback, this positive one motivates me. This is the first time I heard about a successful installation of kiwix-serve in a school local network. I have open two feature requests: * daemon mode: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2961214&group_id=175508&at… * verbose mode: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2961216&group_id=175508&at… I will try to work on that during the next days. In the worth case this will be implemented until the end of the month. I have also seen you made a blog post here: http://blog.wizzy.com/post/Kiwix-install-at-Kwena-Malapo-school-Johannesberg I try to build a planet to aggregate experiences related to Kiwix from different people in the world: http://planet.kiwix.org This is nothing big, but hope this may help people to make choices and find the best solution for their concrete problems. If you are agree, I would be happy to add you to their (please create a kiwix category/tag in this case). Regards Emmanuel PS: Small fix for you article: I do not work for Linterweb and Linterweb has not been working on Kiwix since more than a year. They also do not have prepared the WP1 0.7 ZIM in English. This is my work.

I installed this at a farm school near Johannesberg last saturday. They have a small network of 22 Windows XP computers installed in a converted container - the container was supplied by Rotary International, with a door and 4 windows and roof ventilation added. They have no internet. I put down a linux server, installed the zim file, kiwix-serve and the necessary extra debs, and a startup script run from init.d. I had to write a script to background kiwix-serve, as I saw no daemon mode. I also redirected a chatty stdout to /dev/null. I am a bit behind with svn updates, so apologies if these have already been added. I attach a couple of pics of the school - sorry I have none of the inside of the container. http://wizzy.com/images/farmschool.jpg http://wizzy.com/images/farmschool2.jpg Cheers, Andy!
