Introduction

following recent updates in VocBench, these instructions will be completely rewritten for a quicker test drive, by using a small concept scheme and loading it with the triple store technology embedded with Sesame2. However, we leave the previous version until we update this section of the documentation

These instructions propose a quick installation method for having an AGROVOC installation of the VocBench Thesauri Management Web Application. Note that, by replacing “Agrovoc” with your specific dataset, and “Agrontology” with your own domain vocabulary, they should still be valid for handling your specific case.

VB offers a User Interface for many of the options that you will see represented through config files here but, as the package that comes with this guide is already pre-configured, you will find it easier to go through these specific configuration steps instead of using the UI.

For the same reason above, you just have to follow this guide up straightly, and all parameters have been already set for the AGROVOC installation. Whenever a parameter needs a value which is specific to your installation, we have put a placeholder for it. The list of placeholders is reported in the Legenda here below.

Please refer to the Installation, sections “Requirements” and “Installation Steps”, up to step 3: “Import the Administrator Database SQL Dump File”. For step 4, just drop the VB war in Tomcat, and then follow this guide for configuring the Config.properties file, then restart tomcat.
