cd Django-1.1.1
sudo cp -pr django /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/



then


python setup.py





B. Create Database for purplenet












sudo -u postgres createuser -S -D -R -l -P -E purplenet
sudo -u postgres createdb --encoding=UTF-8 --owner=purplenet purplenetdb







edit your hba


vim /etc/postgresql/9.1/main/pg_hba.conf


just like this :


host purplenetdb purplenet 127.0.0.1/32 md5


or 


host    all         all         127.0.0.1/32          md5



C. Install Purplenet


wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/purplenet/files/purplenet-0.7.2/purplenet-0.7.2.tar.bz2/download

mkdir -p /opt
sudo cp -r purplenet-0.7.2 /opt
sudo ln -s /opt/purplenet-0.7.2 /opt/purplenet



edit your seting.py

cd /opt/purplenet/purplenet


sudo cp settings.py.dist settings.py


vim /opt/purplenet/purplenet/settings.py








ADMINS = (
        ('Firstname Surname', 'firstname.surname@yourdomain'),
)

DATABASE_ENGINE = 'postgresql_psycopg2'
DATABASE_NAME = 'purplenetdb'
DATABASE_USER = 'purplenet'
DATABASE_PASSWORD = 'yourpassword'
DATABASE_HOST = '127.0.0.1'
DATABASE_PORT = '5432'
MEDIA_ROOT = '/opt/purplenet/media'
MEDIA_URL = 'http://servername/purplenet/media/'
ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = '/purplenet/media/admin/'
SECRET_KEY = 'yourSecretKey'
LOGIN_URL = '/purplenet/login/'
TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
       '/opt/purplenet/templates',
)
FIXTURE_DIRS = (
      '/opt/purplenet/fixtures'
)
PURPLENET_LOGOUT_URL = "http://servername/"
PURPLENET_SETUP_KEY = "yourOtherSecretKey"







edit your mkca.conf and openssl template

vim /opt/purplenet/libpurplenet/mkca.cnf

countryName_default             = US


localityName_default            = Montreal
organizationName_default        = SuperFastVPN
organizationalUnitName_default  = vpn







vim /opt/purplenet/templates/mkca/openssl.cnf


countryName_default             = US
localityName_default            = Montreal
organizationName_default        = SuperFastVPN
organizationalUnitName_default  = vpn






D. Create Database purplenet




cd /opt/purplenet
source env.sh
manage syncdb




.....


You just installed Django's auth system, which means you don't have any superusers defined.
Would you like to create one now? (yes/no): yes
Username (Leave blank to use 'someuser'): administrator
E-mail address: firstname.surname@organisation.com
Password: 
Password (again): 
Superuser created successfully.
Installing index for auth.Permission model
Installing index for auth.Message model
Installing index for admin.LogEntry model


....




this user will use to setup purplenet web.





E. Configure Apache


vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/default.


<Location /purplenet>
     SetHandler python-program
    PythonHandler django.core.handlers.modpython
     SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE purplenet.settings
     PythonOption django.root /purplenet
     PythonDebug On
     PythonAutoReload On
    PythonPath "['/opt/purplenet'] + sys.path"
     PythonInterpreter purplenet
</Location>
Alias "/purplenet/media/admin" "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/media/"
Alias "/purplenet/media" "/opt/purplenet/media"
<Location /purplenet/media>
   SetHandler None
</Location>

Apache needs now be restarted with the new configuration with the following

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart






F. Configure CA Directory


sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/purplenet/ca
sudo chown www-data:www-data /var/lib/purplenet/ca
sudo chmod 750 /var/lib/purplenet/ca
