INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

In cases where a graphical installation on a Linux machine isn't viable, this tarball can be used as a substitute.  Installation of screen-scraper via this tarball requires an extra step, however, that the graphical installer normally takes care of.

Once the tarball is decompressed into its installation directory a number of files must be changed to reflect the location (note that if you install to "/usr/local/screen-scraper" you can skip this step entirely--screen-scraper is ready to go).  These files are as follows:

resource/conf/screen-scraper.properties
resource/conf/wrapper.conf
start_server.sh

In each file you'll need to replace the text:

/usr/local/screen-scraper/

with the path of the directory containing screen-scraper. Please be careful to include the trailing slash in the "screen-scraper.properties" file, as that will be used to set paths in other files.  That is, if you're installing to the "/opt/ss/" folder the "InstallDirectory" property found in the "screen-scraper.properties" file should be "/opt/ss/". If you move screen-scraper to an alternate location in the future you obviously need to change the paths again.
