Installation instructions for Japanese-ization

Dedication

Thanks to Joesph Engo for starting the phpGroupWare Japanese-ization. Thanks to all the developers and users who contribute to making phpGroupWare such a success.

1 Introduction

These files are only necessary if you need to support Japanese users within phpGroupWare who are using Japanese text. Special code is required for phpGroupWare to be able to handle Japanese email for example (outside of just translating the interface). The Japanese-ization files are installed as a set of diffs to a standard base system.

2 Installation

2.1 Requirements

Requirements for phpGroupWare Japanese-ization are the same as for standard phpGroupWare. No Japanese extensions are required to your standard operating system.

2.2 Preparing the phpGroupWare base system.

Download the source of phpGroupWare from www.phpgroupware.com and perform the following commands.

# cp phpgroupware-version.tar.gz /home/httpd/html
# cd /home/httpd/html
# tar zxf phpgroupware-version.tar.gz

*This example assumes /home/httpd/html is the DocumentRoot of Apache. Substitute phpgroupware-version.tar.gz for the name of the stable phpGroupWare version you downloaded.

2.3 Preparing the phpGroupWare Japanese-ization files.

Download the relevant files from http://www.itheart.com. Expand the downloaded files into the same directory as you used for phpGroupWare in step 2.2. For example:

# mkdir /tmp/phpgwjp
# cp phpGroupWare-japaneseversion.tar.gz /tmp/phpgwjp
# cd /tmp/phpgwjp
# tar zxf phpGroupWare-japaneseversion.tar.gz
# cd /home/httpd/html
# patch -p0 < /tmp/phpgwjp/patch.txt
# cp /tmp/phpgwjp/japaneseversion/phpgwapi/inc/class.codecv* phpgroupware/phpgwapi/inc/
# cp /tmp/phpgwjp/japaneseversion/calendar/inc/class.holidaycalc* phpgroupware/calendar/inc

Substitute phpGroupWare-japaneseversion.tar.gz for the name of the downloaded japanese-ization file.

2.4 Configuration

After you have expanded the Japanese-ization files you can now configure phpGroupWare in the normal way. Follow the instructions that came with the phpGroupWare distribution (i.e. set file permissions, setup your database, setup and configure phpGroupWare).
(Setting File Permissions, Setup the database, Setup / Configure phpGroupWare...)

This document has been reworded by Ian Cottee of Blue Fountain Systems Ltd as the previous version was machine translated. Although my Japanese is pretty poor feel free to forward questions in English to me and I will either try to answer myself or ask the Japanese stuff within my company to translate for Kamimura-san. Many thanks to ITHeart for working on these Japanese issues.
