Using Unix/Linux

The XBT Tracker must be compiled from source on Unix/Linux. You need shell and root access to compile and run XBT Tracker. You also need the following packages:

• boost-devel
• mysql-devel
• gcc-c++ (at least version 7)
• git

To install this required packages you can run the following commands in your server:

Installing the required packages on Debian and Ubuntu

Link the x64 (/usr/lib64) libraries into the x86 (/usr/lib)

Then create a folder in your server and type the following:

1. ">https://github.com/OlafvdSpek/xbt[/CODE]
2.
3.
4.

After the server is compiled you will have a xbt_tracker binary under xbt/Tracker. Copy this binary into the directory where you will run XBTT along with the xbt_tracker.conf.default that is on the same folder. You will end up with two files in your xbt directory: the xbt_tracker and the xbt_tracker.conf.default. Rename the xbt_tracker.conf.default to xbt_tracker.conf.

we are using /home/xbt_tracker as an example

We now need to create a database to be used with XBTT. You can use phpMyAdmin of the mysql command to create it. See the example below using the mysql client:

After the database is created we need to import the default sql that we previously copied into our xbt_tracker home directory. Just type the following command in the shell of your server:



Ok, the default database schema (xbt_tracker.sql) is imported into the database we have created. All that is left is to configure XBTT to use it. To do so, edit the xbt_tracker.conf in the xbt_tracker home directory and use the following (change the values to fit you need. We are going to use the ones from the previous commands):

We have now concluded the installation of XBTT on our server. So let's start it. To do it just type:



You now have XBT Tracker running on the default port 2710.
