2.3. Frontend Installation

This section will guide you through installing the web interface that makes up the frontend of WebMapReduce.
These instructions assume you have a working webserver (such as Apache) with support for PHP and the extensions listed in Section 2.1.1, “Frontend”.

2.3.1. Download and Unpack

Download the WebMapReduce frontend distribution from the SourceForge website and unpack it to a directory that is configured to be served by your webserver. For Apache, this means somewhere in your DocumentRoot.
$ tar -xzf webmapreduce-interface-*.tar.gz -C DocRoot
$ cd DocRoot
$ ls
WebMapReduce-version/
$ mv WebMapReduce-* wmr
$ ls
wmr/
