This page describes brief summary how to set up a Virtuoso 6.0.0 server with the Facet search configuration.

Goals

• Set up a SPARQL endpoint at  http://localhost:8890/sparql/
• Set up facet search at  http://localhost:8890/fct

Installation

Check out the source code via CVS

$ cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@virtuoso.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/virtuoso co -r VOS-6_1_0 virtuoso-opensource

223 MB files

$ du -sh * 
223M	virtuoso-opensource/

$ cd virtuoso-opensource
$ sh autogen.sh

Build it (for 20-60 min.)

$ ./autogen.sh        # should only be needed in CVS checkout
$ ./configure --with-readline=/opt/local
$ make -j2
$ make -j2
$ make check
$ make install
$ ls /usr/local/virtuoso-opensource

Startup

Set up a database directory (/some/where/db).

$ mkdir /some/where/db
$ cd /some/where/db
$ cp /usr/local/virtuoso-opensource/var/lib/virtuoso/db/virtuoso.ini .

Boot

$ pwd
/some/where/db
$ /usr/local/virtuoso-opensource/bin/virtuoso-t -f

Open  http://localhost:8890 by your web browser.

Startup with RAMDISK

Use Bio2RDF dump db

1. Download a virtuoso version 6.0 dump db file form  http://quebec.bio2rdf.org/download/virtuoso/V6/
2. Rename the dump db as "virtuoso.db" then deply at the db directory.
3. That's it

(These dump files will not work with version 6.1.0)

Facet search setup

Add full-text index and ranking

$ /usr/local/virtuoso-opensource/bin/isql 1111 dba dba fct-init.sql

NOTE This should NOT be done for version 6.1.0. (I don't know why...)

Install the fct package

Install the fct VAD package to activate the facet search at  http://localhost:8890/fct

1. Login as dba user / dba password at  http://localhost:8890/conductor/
2. Go System admin tab.
3. GO Packages sub-tab.
4. Install the fct package.

Post-installation

Apply the following sql script for post installation settings.

$ /usr/local/virtuoso-opensource/bin/isql 1111 dba dba fct-index.sql

Note For version 6.1.0, use fct-index-6.1.0.sql attached below.

Use facet search

Open  http://localhost:8890/fct to use the facet search
