To install the module, use the standard Drupal module installation structure:. Get the module from the Release Notes and Downloads page.

• Place the unpackaged module in your site's 'modules' folder, with the name stripped out of the version. For single-site installations, this should almost always be in /var/www/drupal/sites/all/modules.

Configuration

Once installed, configuration options for the Islandora module can be found on your site at http://path.to.your.site/admin/islandora/configure.  The configuration panel is depicted in the screenshot below.

The three tabs to the left of the screen provide the following areas for configuration: 

General Configuration

• The Fedora Base URL is the path to the Fedora webapp on your Tomcat (or other) server. On a default installation, this will be http://localhost:8080/fedora; if your port or path were changed during installation, these will need to be corrected to reflect that.
• The Root Collection PID is the Persistent Identifier fedora will use for your root collection. This may not need to be changed. 
• UUID PID Generation adds the option to generate Fedora object PIDs with v4 UUIDs.

Tuque library installation test from milestone 4 is the green check mark in /admin/islandora/configure. It is as simple as that.

Test the Islandora Core Module installation:

• 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.

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-1.5.zip
 ...
# mv islandora_solution_pack_collection-7.x-1.5 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 Starter Kit

• The Starter Kit is a way to add some very basic functionality to your Islandora repository, so that you can ingest some material and test your installation. For that we chose the Islandora Basic Image Solution Pack and  the Islandora PDF Solution Pack . They are very easy to install and have very few dependencies.

• Download the Islandora Basic Image Solution Pack  and the Islandora PDF Solution Pack  from the Release Notes and Downloads page. Unzip the contents and rename them without the version numbers, 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-1.5.zip
 ...
# unzip islandora_solution_pack_pdf-7.x-1.5.zip
 ...
# mv islandora_solution_pack_image-7.x-1.5 islandora_solution_pack_image
# mv islandora_solution_pack_pdf-7.x-1.5 islandora_solution_pack_pdf
# cd /var/www/drupal/sites/all/modules
# cp -R /opt/downloads/islandora_solution_pack_image .
# cp -R /opt/downloads/islandora_solution_pack_pdf .
# chown -R www-data:www-data islandora_solution_pack*
