Moving a discussion to the appropriate (I hope!) area..
I am trying to set up a calibre content server on a VPN hosted by linode, so far I've just been learning how to use the tools and securing the server. I've installed apache so I can move my websites over, but I haven't taken any steps toward actually setting up the Calibre content server. Chaley has thoughtfully offered to provide some tips and startup scripts etc. if I would start the thread
This is what he's said so far
Quote:
If/when you install the calibre content server, be sure to install the V2 beta instead of the V1 release. It has several advantages. 1) It doesn't require you to install a fake X server (xvfb). 2) My experience is that it is faster. and 3) my experience is that it requires less memory.
I can give you my config files and startup scripts if they would be useful. I run calibre behind apache (SSL) in reverse-proxy mode so that apache does authentication. I also use monit to monitor the calibre db and restart the content server when dropbox changes the content.
