The Astronaut installers are the most advanced, easy and comprehensive way of installing WorldVistA and OpenVistA(tm). Began in January of 2009, active development continues on them. They have obsoleted many other ways of installing WorldVistA.
 
  
The following excerpt comes from a thread on Hardhats[http://groups.google.com/group/Hardhats/browse_thread/thread/288b85582d62184f?hl=en#]. Download links lead to the Astronaut Installer, updated to Beta 0.7.6 (16 October 2009).
+
An integrated method way to get VistA running is to use the Astronaut installers provided by [http://astronautvista.com Astronaut, LLC]. These are available as either RedHat/Fedora/CentOS (.rpm) or Debian/Ubuntu (.deb) packages. The packages are able to be downloaded:

== Installation ==
Toppenberg's superlative TMG-CPRS! Patient registration is finally
 
solved! This also cleans up the design to work side by side with other
 
VSB compliant VistA's like Astronaut Nostromo (installs
 
OpenVistA(tm)). OVID now works, m2web should work by starting or
 
re-starting httpd. m2web does NOT work with SELinux currently and is
 
installed but not working with .deb  see below for the last few steps
 
to get m2web to work. EWD is partially installed, but broken.
 
  
Default ID's and passwords: System Linux id for an instance now follow

* See Vistapedia's [[Astronaut VistA|Astronaut instructions]].
the VistA Standard Base spec of <branding>vista<instance> to avoid
 
conflict and allow multiple instances to run side by side. For example
 
worldvistaEHR is the default Linux id for rpm install with password
 
vista!123. The default VistA id is sys.admin vista!123.

or implied, use at your own risk. (see WorldVistA license below)
 
 
 
These installers have been tested on Fedora 9 and Ubuntu 9.04
 
 
 
To install on rpm based systems, log in as root:
 
 
 
* # rpm -i astronaut-wv-server-installer-XXX-0.X-X.i386.rpm
 
 
 
IT IS NORMAL TO SEE A BUNCH OF ERROR MESSAGES DURING COMPILATION.
 
 
 
To uninstall:
 
 
 
* # rpm -e astronaut-wv-server-installer-XXXX-0.X-X
 
 
 
(NOTE: the absence of .i386.rpm for uninstalling)
 
 
 
To install on .deb, dpkg apt-get based systems, log in as root:
 
 
 
* # dpkg -i astronaut-wv-server-installer-XXXX_0.X-0.X.deb
 
 
 
IT IS NORMAL TO SEE A BUNCH OF ERROR MESSAGES DURING COMPILATION.
 
 
 
To uninstall:
 
 
 
* # dpkg -r astronaut-wv-server-installer-XXXX_0.X-0.X.deb
 
 
 
You can change the default installation parameters: location, port,
 
etc by creating a file called wv-rpm-defaults in /, (rpm apparently
 
can only find it in /):
 
<pre>
 
gtm_path="/opt/lsb-gtm/V5.3-003_i686"
 
vista_instance="EHR"
 
vista_path="/opt/worldvista/$vista_instance"
 
VISTAUSER="worldvista$vista_instance"
 
VISTAGROUP="worldvista$vista_instance"
 
port=9260
 
vista_port_old_rpc=9210
 
vista_port_vistalink=8002
 
</pre>
 
 
 
Alter the above parameters as desired before running the rpm and it
 
will override the above defaults.
 
 
 
Follow the next steps after the rpm install has run. This gets you to
 
the point of being able to login as a text or CPRS client. BOX:VOLUME
 
PAIR GETS AUTOMATICALLY SET! The pre-set Access Code is: sys.admin
 
with Verify Code: vista!123. You will have to re-set the verify code
 
upon first login. Download the Windows client installers which should
 
all work out of the box with this server. The pre-set Linux id is
 
vista.world password is vista!123 which you will also have to re-set
 
on first login to the Linux vista.world id. To start m2web simply
 
start or restart apache then go to step 10 here:
 
http://vista.vmth.ucdavis.edu/notebook/index/48.html
 
 
 
Features:
 
 
 
# Conforms to VistA Standard Base 0.9 RC 7.
 
# Quick install.
 
# Automatically sets BOX:VOLUME pair!
 
# Creates a text<instance> id, automatically edits, compiles and installs Bhaskar's runzu so that text<instance> runs with no shell and no home directory.
 
# Relatively smaller download size 155Mb complete package containing all files.
 
# Controller software such as vistactl.sh start | stop | restart, xinetd listener automatically configured and installed.
 
# Automatic vista startup with journaling on server start and graceful shutdown. Bhaskar's code.
 
# Automatically opens CPRS port.
 
# Has a backup solution (some assembly required).
 
# Latest WorldVistA and gtm V53003
 
# Installs /opt/worldvista/EHR
 
# Creates default vista id automatically.
 
# Management commands: copy_this_vista_to.sh and change_client_port.sh and uninstall_this_vista.sh
 
# Requires two-factor deletion to really delete an instance. rpm -e only removes symlinks to log files, text-client id and auto-start routines. Requires explicit rm -Rf to really delete it all. rpm -i --force will NOT over-write an existing instance.
 
# Checks for file wv-rpm-defaults and overrides default install parameters for different locations for the install.
 
# Port handling files correspond to worldvista name spaces.
 
#* M2WEB:
 
#Pre-installs m2web. Start or restart apache then go to step 10 here: http://vista.vmth.ucdavis.edu/notebook/index/48.html Turn off and on SELinux between boots by: echo 0 >/selinux/enforce or echo 1 >/selinux/enforce
 
# Pre-installs Kevin Toppenberg's debugger.
 
# Pre-installs EWD (currently broken).
 
# Pre-installs parts of Ovid (currently broken).
 
# Pre-installs Victory Programming Environment.
 
# MSC Fileman 1034 Had to be removed as it was causing a problem. Stay tuned!
 
# TMG-CPRS support with all associated bug fixes!

Forgot to add that I have packaged Kevin's TMG-CPRS into an easy to
 
install point-click installer:
 
 
 
* https://sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=255113
 
 
 
To download the TMG-CPRS client installer, it is the one in the big
 
green button called astronaut-tmg-cprs-client-alpha-0.1.exe
 
 
 
Let me know if the dimensions of the Select Patient dialog box are
 
funny where some of the buttons are off screen or not.
 
 
 
Congratulations to the T's: Kevin T and George T, this one is for
 
you!
 
 
 
The windows-vm appliance I hope to have up by today as well.

Hi All:
 
 
 
What is the official website for WorldVistA EHR/VOE 1.0.  It doesn't seem
 
like this is on the worldvista website.  Where can I find more documentation
 
on this new version?  Also, how can I find out about new releases of EHR/VOE
 
when they come out?
 
 
 
Thanks
 
 
 
Steve

Steve --
 
 
 
The official web site for WorldVistA EHR is the WorldVistA web site
 
 
 
* http://worldvista.org
 
 
 
The distribution point for WorldVistA EHR is Source Forge
 
* http://sourceforge.net/projects/worldvista-ehr
 
 
 
and the WorldVistA web site points you to the Source Forge site.
 
 
 
Built on the release of WorldVistA EHR from Source Forge are
 
distributions of repackaged software, sometimes with enhancements.
 
Ignacio's Astronaut packages are an example.  By way of analogy, the
 
WorldVistA EHR distributions are like Linux kernels from http://kernel.org
 
whereas the redistributions are like GNU/Linux distributions from
 
Debian, Red Hat, Ubuntu, etc.
 
 
 
New releases of WorldVistA EHR will appear on Source Forge, and will
 
be announced on hardhats, as well as elsewhere.
 
 
 
Regards

Kevin,
 
 
 
I've used TMG-CPRS all day today and I must say that the integrated
 
patient registration works phenomenally well. Especially when you are
 
under pressure and have lots of distractions. Not having to bring up
 
the text based interface or switch back and forth between them is a
 
dramatic improvement as well as the ability to edit spelling mistakes
 
quickly and easily.
 
 
 
Question: what are you using to render html in notes?

I, Valdes  Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2009 14:46:07 -0700 (PDT)
 
 
 
FYI, I just released Astronaut WorldVistA Beta 0.6.4 on rpm and deb on
 
sourceforge.net
 
 
 
Changes: After 5 months of intermittent not workings and me just not
 
getting it, iptables (server firewall) rule addition and removal on
 
uninstall for the client port now should work correctly and reliably.
 
The very useful but hard to find or access gtm_acculturation document
 
is now installed in the doc directory by default. There is also few
 
dependency checking tweaks in anticipation of the VistA Community
 
Meeting demo this Friday in Bethesda.
