• Once Islandora Core is enabled, you should be able to test. Ensure that the 'testing' module is enabled in Drupal (it is not by default), then go to Configuration -> Development -> Testing and click the link.

• This will pop up a new window with a list of tests to run. Scroll down to Islandora, then click the checkbox. Scroll down to the bottom and click "Run Tests". This will take about 30 minutes to run, so go grab a coffee.

  Note

  Once you've installed the Islandora Core Module, the installation of the Basic Image Solution Pack will confirm that Islandora and Fedora are working well together. This is mostly a test to confirm the results of the testing mentioned above, but it is quick and easy. The image solution pack requires (as an un-listed dependency) the Basic Collection solution pack. We'll need to install that as well.

Installing the Islandora Basic Collection Solution Pack

• Download the Basic Collection Solution Pack from the Release Notes and Downloads page. Unzip the contents and rename the directory such that the version number is stripped out, then copy it to /var/www/drupal/sites/all/modules and change the owner to www-data.

# cd /opt/downloads
# unzip islandora_solution_pack_collection-7.x-1.4.zip
 ...
# mv islandora_solution_pack_collection-7.x-1.4 islandora_solution_pack_collection
# cd /var/www/drupal/sites/all/modules
# cp -R /opt/downloads/islandora_solution_pack_collection .
# chown -R www-data:www-data islandora_solution_pack_collection

• Now, go into the Drupal modules menu. At the bottom, turn on Basic Collection Solution pack, and save the configuration. Make sure the package is enabled without error.
• Then  go to the main page of the Drupal site. Click the link on the bottom left of the screen that says Islandora Repository. You should see a "Islandora Repository" link on the Navigation Pane and a window titled "Top-level Collection".

Installing the Islandora Basic Collection Solution Pack and  the Islandora Basic Image Solution Pack

• Download the Basic Collection and Basic Image solution packs from the Release Notes and Downloads page. Unzip the contents, and rename them to the correct directory names, then copy them to /var/www/drupal/sites/all/modules and change the owner to www-data.

# cd /opt/downloads
# unzip islandora_solution_pack_image-7.x-1.4.zip
 ...
# unzip islandora_solution_pack_collection-7.x-1.4.zip
 ...
# mv islandora_solution_pack_collection-7.x-1.4.zip islandora_solution_pack_collection
# mv islandora_solution_pack_image-7.x-1.4.zip islandora_solution_pack_image
# cd /var/www/drupal/sites/all/modules
# cp -R /opt/downloads/islandora_solution_pack_collection .
# cp -R /opt/downloads/islandora_solution_pack_image .
# chown -R www-data:www-data islandora_solution_pack*

• • Now, go into the Drupal modules menu. At the bottom, turn on Basic Collection and and Basic Image service packs, and save the configuration. Make sure the packages are enabled without error.
  • Then  go to the main page of the Drupal site. Click the link on the bottom left of the screen that says Islandora Repository. You should see a title "Top-level Collection" and a single folder titled "Basic Image Collection".
• As with the Islandora Core, you should be able to test both Basic Collection and and Basic Image service packs. Ensure that the 'testing' module is enabled in Drupal (it is not by default), then go to Configuration -> Development -> Testing and click the link.
  • This will pop up a new window with a list of tests to run. Scroll down to Islandora Basic Collection and Islandora Basic Image, then click their checkboxes. Scroll down to the bottom and click "Run Tests".

At the end of this installation, you will be ready to populate your site with digital assets (images) for testing purposes, and be capable of further enhancing its functionality by installing other Solution Packs. Your root Islandora repository can be found at base-site-url/islandora. If you can not see the basic collection folder on your Islandora repository then something is wrong with the installation. Please retrace your steps.
