[http://www.wuala.com Wuala] is an application developed by Lacie. It is a Java application solution to offer some online storage in the "cloud". It allows automatic backup of your data and because synchronisation between PCs as well as time keep track or "version" of that you file (you can more or less run on every computergo back in time).
It is a Java application and because of that can more or less run on every computer. On their website they only have a package for Ubuntu but there is a package for all the otherothers.
To For Fedora 12 you will need to install it : java-1.6.0-openjdk-1, java-1.6.0-openjdk-plugin-1, fuse-libs, fuse, xdg-utils. If you don't need several packagesthe full system integration you don't need fuse-libs, fuse, xdg-utils but you will loose having a virtual drive of your online data on the desktop
For Fedora 12 == Install ==1. Installation of dependencies yum install java-1.6.0-openjdk java-1.6.0-openjdk-plugin-1 fuse-libs fuse xdg-utils2. Download the latest version of wuala wget <nowiki>http://www.wuala.com/files/wuala.tar.gz</nowiki>3. Untar it as root in /usr/local (This will create a directory wuala) cd /usr/local tar xvfz wuala.tar.gz4. Manually start the program (make sure you have an account with them first) /usr/local/wuala/wuala -basepath /usr/local/wuala login YourUserName YourPasswordif all goes well you have started the program successfully and can test it /usr/local/wuala --help /usr/local/wuala/wuala showStatus -> will tell you if you are online /usr/local/wuala/wuala showSettings -> will need show your settings5. Start Wuala as a service I found a little init.d script that sort of works but it is not perfect. For example I can't seem to install:make it work with service so that it starts at bootup or shows that status is started. So if someone can fix it it would be great.
Copy the code below in file called wuala in /etc/init.d and make it executable <nowiki> #!/bin/sh # chkconfig: 235 99 10 # description: Start or stop the Wuala server # ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: wuala java# Required-Start: $network $syslog # Required-Stop: $network # Default-Start: 2 3 5 # Default-Stop: 0 16 # Description: Start or stop the Wuala server ### END INIT INFO # Source function library. . /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions WUALA_USER="YourUserName" WUALA_PASS="YourPassword" WUALA_PATH="/usr/local/wuala" #start=/etc/webmin/start #stop=/etc/webmin/stop lockfile=/var/lock/subsys/wuala #confFile=/etc/webmin/miniserv.6conf pidFile=/var/wuala/wuala.0pid name='Wuala' case "$1" in 'start') su -openjdkroot -1, javac "$WUALA_PATH/wuala -basepath $WUALA_PATH login $WUALA_USER $WUALA_PASS &" & >/dev/null 2>&1.6.</dev/null RETVAL=$? if [ "$RETVAL" = "0" ]; then touch $lockfile >/dev/null 2>&1 fi ;; 'stop') su - root -c "$WUALA_PATH/wuala -openjdkbasepath $WUALA_PATH logout &" & RETVAL=$? if [ "$RETVAL" = "0" ]; then rm -pluginf $lockfile fi pidfile=$pidFile rm -1, fusef $pidfile ;; 'status') pidfile=$pidFile if [ -libs, fuse, xdgs $pidfile ]; then pid=`cat $pidfile` kill -utils 0 $pid >/dev/null 2>&1 if [ "$?" = "0" ]; then echo "$name (pid $pid) is running" RETVAL=0 else echo "$name is stopped" RETVAL=1 fi else echo "$name is stopped" RETVAL=1 fi ;; 'restart') $stop ; $start RETVAL=$? ;; *) echo "Usage: $0 { start | stop | status | restart }" RETVAL=1 ;; esac exit $RETVAL</nowiki>
If you don't need the full system integration you don't need fuse== References ==There is a potential init script that might work [http://pascal.nextrem.ch/2009/10/20/wuala-init-d-libs, fuse, xdgscript/ here] and another one [http://cloudservers.rackspacecloud.com/index.php/Ubuntu_-utils but you will loose having a virtual drive of your online data on the desktop_Setting_up_Wuala here].
