=== Manual Installation of OpenVista SemiVivA FOIA Gold source on Linux. ===
 
'''Mark Street, RHCE - March 24, 2005'''
 
  
1. Create a vista user<br />
 
2. Edit vista users environment<br />
 
3. Obtain Vista FOIA GOLD source archive<br />
 
4. Place Vista archive contents onto filesystem<br />
 
5. Begin Configuration of Vista
 
 
It is assumed you have superuser (root) access on the system you are installing Vista.<br />
 
Most of the commands and tasks below will be performed as the superuser.
 
 
1.  Create a vista user
 
 
useradd vista
 
or
 
adduser vista
 
 
Make sure a home directory for the vista user is created.<br />
 
Utilize the manual pages for useradd if you need to customize the location of the vista user's home directory.
 
 
2.  Edit vista user's environment - Add the paths to Vista's
 
routines and gtm.  Below is an example of a .bash_profile file for the vista
 
user.  It assumes you are installing Vista into the user vista's home
 
directory /home/vista and your are installing gtm into /usr/local/gtm.
 
 
Create a directory within the vista user's home directory for logging.
 
 
mkdir /home/vista/log
 
chown vista.vista /home/vista/log
 
 
You can add the vista specific portions to your vista user's existing .bash_profile or replace it with this example.
 
 
<pre>## ---- BEGIN ----
 
# .bash_profile
 
 
# Get the aliases and functions
 
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
 
        . ~/.bashrc
 
fi
 
 
# User specific environment and startup programs
 
 
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
 
 
unset USERNAME
 
 
## OpenVistA specific environment ##
 
export gtm_dist=/usr/local/gtm
 
export gtm_log=/home/vista/log
 
 
export gtmgbldir=/home/vista/g/mumps.gld
 
export gtm_vista=/home/vista/
 
export vista_home=/home/vista
 
export gtmroutines="$vista_home/o($vista_home/r) $gtm_dist"
 
 
alias GTM="$gtm_dist/mumps -direct"
 
alias gtm="$gtm_dist/mumps -direct"
 
alias mupip="$gtm_dist/mupip"
 
alias gde="$gtm_dist/mumps -r ^GDE"
 
alias lke="$gtm_dist/lke"
 
alias dse="$gtm_dist/dse"
 
alias rundown="$gtm_dist/mupip rundown -r \"*\""
 
 
export PATH=$PATH:$gtm_dist
 
# ---- END ----
 
</pre>
 
3.  Obtain and unpack the Vista FOIA GOLD archive from worldvista at sourceforge.
 
 
http://sourceforge.net/worldvista/<br />
 
OpenVista SemiVivA FOIA Gold gzipped tape archive<br />
 
[http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/worldvista/OpenVistASemiVivAFOIAGold20050212.tgz?download OpenVistASemiVivAFOIAGold20050212.tgz]<br />
 
 
From the command prompt unarchive and uncompress the Vista file structure.
 
 
tar -xzvf OpenVistASemiVivAFOIAGold20050212.tgz
 
 
Two directories will be created, gtm and OpenVistA.<br />
 
The gtm directory contains the gtm binaries and mumps routines and object files.<br />
 
The OpenVistA directory contians the mumps database files and their associated filesystem structure.
 
 
4.  Place Vista routines and gtm on the filesystem.
 
 
First make sure the ownership of all files and directories are owned by the proper users.
 
 
gtm = root<br />
 
OpenVistA = vista<br />
 
 
From the directory in which you UNarchived the files issue the following commands;
 
 
chown -R root.root gtm
 
 
Change the file and directory ownership on the Vista data files and file structure to the vista user.
 
 
chown -R vista.vista OpenVistA
 
 
Now move the files to their proper location on the filesytem;
 
 
mv gtm /usr/local/
 
 
Change your current working directory into the OpenVista directory and move
 
all the Vista files to the vista user's home dir /home/vista.
 
 
cd OpenVistA
 
 
mv * /home/vista/
 
 
Now gunzip the mumps.dat.gz file in the 'g' directory in /home/vista
 
 
gunzip mumps.dat.gz
 
 
5.  [[Begin Configuration of Vista]]

This page uses the Historical meaning of the term "OpenVistA" VistA Trademark Issues

rpm and deb installers for gtm now exist

rpm here:https://launchpad.net/openvista-gtm-integration, deb installer for now here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/worldvistadebin/

Kevin T's Introduction

"O.K. Take a deep breath. Close your eyes and find that inner peace. Now exhale and let's get started."

VistA is a complex software system designed in a modular fashion to meet a wide range of needs: everything from complete hospital systems, to individual outpatient clinics, and probably much more. So expect to take a bit of time learning the system and how it all fits together.

Currently, there is no installation wizard. Users will have to follow step-by-step instructions, and ask lots of questions.

A note of terminology: 1. Installation -- means getting the MUMPS programming language implementation setup on the system and all the VistA files copied to their proper locations on the operating system level, etc. 2. Configuration -- this means getting settings INSIDE VistA set up -- i.e. adding users, setting up clinics, institutions, scheduling parameters etc. etc.

      • PLEASE CONTRIBUTE***

Believe it or not, the 'experts' don't often bring systems online from the ground up. So its hard for them to remember all the steps needed to be successful. So if you can make the way easier for the next guy, please add to this wiki! Thanks

Here is a link to an older site I worked on when first working with VistA. It has a compilation of several installation guides. http://www.geocities.com/kdtop3 (Note to reader 7/28/2015: this link is obsolete and currently leads to a Rickroll)

Notes from Bhaskar

Setting up GT.M and the environment (vs. configuring VistA itself)

Depedencies:

You will need Xdialog on your PC for this approach.

Download an OpenVistA SemiVivA file from WorldVistA (either OpenVistA SemiVivA 0.4 or OpenVistA SemiVivA FOIA Gold 20050212), say to /Distrib/OpenVistA. The following will install GT.M and OpenVistA (replace the filename in the second line with appropriate name of downloaded file):

$ su -

$ tar zxvf /Distrib/OpenVistA/OpenVistASemiVivAFOIAGold20050212.tgz

Assuming your userid is "vista" as the normal user vista, execute:

$ /usr/local/OpenVistA/vista --install /home/vista/myVistA/OpenVistA

(or other desired location) and reply in the affirmative when you are prompted about creating directories. Subsequently, to run it, just execute:

/usr/local/OpenVistA/vista --run /home/vista/myVistA/OpenVistA


---K.S. Bhaskar



Script tweaks from Zimmer (Xdialog not required)

"zista", Modifications to Bhaskar's ../OpenVistA/vista install script


I have used this to "learn myself" a little more of the workings of Bash scripting.
The changes I have made 
  1. allow the script to run without X-Windows
  2. add a rundown function, for whatever that is worth,
  3. work with Xdialog's compatability mode,
          which lets the dialog calls look pretty in X-windows.

I hope that some of us will paste this into their OpenVistA directories and try it out.
Thanks in advance for any and all feedback.

--Zeno 02:15, 28 Jul 2005 (CDT) Ok, I tested above script and whenever the "run database now" option comes, I can not select "yes"! Any hints? Please also refer to my questions here
--gra'pa Z 14:02, 5 Sep 2005 (CDT) I don't understand your problem, Zeno. Has anyone else had any further experience with this script? I've rechecked it, and it cut-and-paste from here works fine for me. It does require dialog. It's advantage is that it runs nicely in terminal mode.




Porting from Cache' to GT.M


Port VO 8-16-05 Release to GTM



Samuel Fontanez' Installation Guide


Anyone that is begining working with vista and want
documentation about installing vista,GT.M, adding
patients,users,wards,beds, and assign patients to beds
and to wards can contact us here in puerto rico. We
had created a documentation on how to do that with the
help of all people in the forum. It is not much but it
help us a lot and we want to share it with any user
that want it.
Thanks to all,
Samuel
