MedDream for PacsOne Quick Install (Windows and Linux) GENERAL NOTES: Under Windows, a thread-safe (TS) 32-bit PHP build is required. The DLLs included won't work with a 64-bit PHP, like in 64-bit builds of WampServer. The 64-bit build of PacsOne which appeared recently also requires a 64-bit version of MySQL (and consequently PHP and Apache), therefore it is incompatible with MedDream. Under Linux, a non-TS PHP build is required. This is related to a more common build of Apache, the "prefork". The "worker" build is incompatible. PHP 5.3 is built for Windows either with VC6 or VC9 runtime. Take note which version you have, and use a corresponding .dll during installation as explained below. Otherwise you'll get an error message like this one: Module compiled with build ID=API20090626,TS,VC6 PHP compiled with build ID=API20090626,TS,VC9 These options need to match Under Linux, the .so file requires glibc 2.5 or later. Under Linux, PacsOne's custom libjpeg conflicts with standard libjpeg needed by the GD2 extension on which MedDream depends heavily at the moment. You will need to disable the antispam image in order to log in to PacsOne web interface (to do that, place an empty file "no.antispam.code" near PacsOne.exe). You also won't be able to view DICOM images in PacsOne; on the other hand, MedDream adds a Show button to the web interface and thus can be used instead of the built-in viewer. During an upgrade it's recommended to use the included config.sample-pacsone.php as a template and then update the resulting config.php according to the old one. This will prevent misunderstandings like variable names which were suddenly changed. Since 3.06.1103.3003, a DICOMDIR viewer in the subdirectory "DICOMDIR" is automatically included on export. However an alternative way is to use PacsOne's "Include external viewer" functionality. If you use the latter, and still keep the viewer in the subdirectory "DICOMDIR", MedDream Export function might fail due to same files included twice. The solution is to rename the subdirectory, or move it somewhere outside the MedDream directory tree. MySQL from XAMPP 1.8 for Windows: if MedDream or PacsOne web interface connects to the database very slowly (each attempt takes about 1 second), then try adding "bind-address = ::" to my.ini. While still in demo mode, you *must* remove the existing meddream.lic after changing computer's host name (any OS), reinstalling the OS (Windows) or changing the MAC of any network card (Linux). A correct file will be created automatically. Otherwise a commercial license generated from your meddream.lic will not work. This also means that Windows must be activated in advance! PacsOne doesn't have an index on series.modality. If searches with a particular modality are unacceptably slow compared to the default set of checkboxes, then you'll need to use the following MySQL command: ALTER TABLE series ADD INDEX (modality); WINDOWS INSTALL: 1. Copy meddream folder to C:\Program Files\PacsOne\php (the result: C:\Program Files\PacsOne\php\meddream) If you are updating older version of MedDream: a) Please back up the old version (so you can go back any time). b) Please do not replace files you changed in last version. You must carefully synchronize the new version 2. (optional) From C:\Program Files\PacsOne\php\meddream Copy and Replace applet.php to C:\Program Files\PacsOne\php. It is advised to make a backup beforehand in case you'll need to uninstall MedDream later. 3. From C:\Program Files\PacsOne\php\meddream copy php5.2_meddream.dll to PHP_INSTALL_DIR\ext (if you are using PHP 5.2.x) copy php5.3_meddream-VC6.dll to PHP_INSTALL_DIR\ext (if you are using PHP 5.3.x, VC6 build) copy php5.3_meddream-VC9.dll to PHP_INSTALL_DIR\ext (if you are using PHP 5.3.x, VC9 build) copy php5.4_meddream.dll to PHP_INSTALL_DIR\ext (if you are using PHP 5.4.x) copy php5.5_meddream.dll to PHP_INSTALL_DIR\ext (if you are using PHP 5.5.x) 4. Add to php.ini file "extension=php5.2_meddream.dll" (if you are using PHP 5.2.x) "extension=php5.3_meddream-VC6.dll" (if you are using PHP 5.3.x, VC6 build) "extension=php5.3_meddream-VC9.dll" (if you are using PHP 5.3.x, VC9 build) "extension=php5.4_meddream.dll" (if you are using PHP 5.4.x) "extension=php5.5_meddream.dll" (if you are using PHP 5.5.x) 5. Specify date.timezone in php.ini: [Date] ; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions date.timezone = "America/Chicago" (the list of possible values is at http://www.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php) 6. Edit APACHE_HTDOCS_DIR/meddream/config.php file. Use config.sample-pacsone.php as a template. The file contains basic instructions. 7. Restart Apache 8. Navigate to http://127.0.0.1/pacsone/meddream/home.php (use pacsone users to log in) or use "Show" button in PacsOne web interface. LINUX INSTALL: 1. Copy the "meddream" directory to PACSONE_INSTALL_DIR/php (so that the result is PACSONE_INSTALL_DIR/php/meddream; for example, in our machines it usually is /home/pacsone/php/meddream.) Adjust permissions: no less than 0777 for PACSONE_INSTALL_DIR/php/meddream 0777 for PACSONE_INSTALL_DIR/php/meddream/log 0777 for PACSONE_INSTALL_DIR/php/meddream/temp If you are updating an older version of MedDream: a) Please back up the old version (so you can go back any time). b) Please do not replace files you changed in last version. You must carefully synchronize the new version 2. From PACSONE_INSTALL_DIR/php/meddream Copy and Replace applet.php to PACSONE_INSTALL_DIR/php 3. From PACSONE_INSTALL_DIR/php/meddream copy php5.2_meddream.so to /usr/lib/php/modules (if you are using PHP 5.2.x) copy php5.3_meddream.so to /usr/lib/php/modules (if you are using PHP 5.3.x) copy php5.4_meddream.so to /usr/lib/php/modules (if you are using PHP 5.4.x) copy php5.5_meddream.so to /usr/lib/php/modules (if you are using PHP 5.5.x) copy php5.2_meddream-x86_64.so to /usr/lib64/php/modules (if you are using PHP 5.2.x under a 64-bit OS) copy php5.3_meddream-x86_64.so to /usr/lib64/php/modules (if you are using PHP 5.3.x under a 64-bit OS) copy php5.4_meddream-x86_64.so to /usr/lib64/php/modules (if you are using PHP 5.4.x under a 64-bit OS) copy php5.5_meddream-x86_64.so to /usr/lib64/php/modules (if you are using PHP 5.5.x under a 64-bit OS) 4. Add to /etc/php.ini file "extension=php5.2_meddream.so" (if you are using PHP 5.2.x) "extension=php5.3_meddream.so" (if you are using PHP 5.3.x) "extension=php5.4_meddream.so" (if you are using PHP 5.4.x) "extension=php5.5_meddream.so" (if you are using PHP 5.5.x) "extension=php5.2_meddream-x86_64.so" (if you are using PHP 5.2.x under a 64-bit OS) "extension=php5.3_meddream-x86_64.so" (if you are using PHP 5.3.x under a 64-bit OS) "extension=php5.4_meddream-x86_64.so" (if you are using PHP 5.4.x under a 64-bit OS) "extension=php5.5_meddream-x86_64.so" (if you are using PHP 5.5.x under a 64-bit OS) 5. Specify date.timezone in php.ini: [Date] ; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions date.timezone = "America/Chicago" (the list of possible values is at http://www.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php) 6. PacsOne and Apache must run as the same user because newer versions of PacsOne create subdirectories with permissions too strict for different users. 7. Edit APACHE_HTDOCS_DIR/meddream/config.php file. Use config.sample-pacsone.php as a template. The file contains basic instructions. 8. Restart Apache 9. Navigate to http://127.0.0.1/pacsone/meddream/home.php (use PacsOne users to log in) or use the "Show" button in the PacsOne web system. 10. ffmpeg is required in order to display thumbnails of MPEG2 DICOM files. It is expected at /usr/bin/ffmpeg . Not every distribution has it. Sometimes it is possible to download separate dependencies from sites like rpmfind.net and install these manually. 11. mkisofs is required for the Export command. If your distribution has only genisoimage, then you need to create a symlink to it named "mkisofs".
