APACHE TRAFFIC SERVER UNIX QUICKSTART
-------------------------------------
For complete installation documentation, see the on-line documentation at
http://trafficserver.apache.org/docs
Various popular platforms have up-to-date build instructions available
online, at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/TS/Building
BUILD AND INSTALLATION
----------------------
Configure & Build from Git source tree:
$ autoreconf -if # generate the configure script and Makefile.in files
On Linux, OSX:
$ ./configure [--prefix=PREFIX]
$ make
On OpenSolaris and FreeBSD:
$ ./configure [--prefix=PREFIX]
$ gmake
To install:
$ sudo make install
* Building on FreeBSD requires GNU make. This is the preferred make
on all platforms.
* Replace PREFIX with the filesystem path under which Traffic Server
should be installed. Default PREFIX is "/usr/local" (without the
quotes).
* If you want to build using different layout see the config.layout
file for possible alternatives. You can create your own layout
and enable it with ./configure --enable-layout=ID, where ID is
the layout name you have created.
* The easiest way to find all of the configuration flags
for Traffic Server is to run ./configure --help.
By default the build will use the highest level of compiler
optimization. To alter this, specify your own optimizer flags at
configuration time:
$ ./configure CXXFLAGS=-Os CFLAGS=-Os
To compile with an alternate set of compilers, e.g. LLVM/Clang
$ ./configure CC=clang CXX=clang++
INITIAL CONFIGURATION
Next set the cluster interface in 'records.config'. The network
interface name will vary depending on the host operating system.
For example:
Linux: CONFIG proxy.config.cluster.ethernet_interface STRING eth0
OS X: CONFIG proxy.config.cluster.ethernet_interface STRING en0
FreeBSD: CONFIG proxy.config.cluster.ethernet_interface STRING em0
OpenSolaris: CONFIG proxy.config.cluster.ethernet_interface STRING e1000g0
To start the Traffic Server process stack (TC, TM, TS):
$ sudo PREFIX/bin/trafficserver start
INSTALLATION HELP
