<b>NOTE:</b> This is for Amahi 7 on Fedora19. Ubuntu has not been tested. Anyone wanting to try it, please make notes here for the Amahi community. Thanks.
=== Installing GLPI on Amahi ===
Prerequisites <br />
First, install the "php-xmlrp" and "php-soap" in Fedora. (You may need to run these commands in Terminal as a superuser:)
{{Code|yum install php-soap php-xmlrpc}}
Downloaded the packages for Webservices and then Fusioninventory* https://forge.indepnet.net/projects/webservices/files* [http://forge.fusioninventory.org/projects/fusioninventory-for-glpi/filesFusioninventory]
<b>NOTE:</b> Be sure to choose plugin versions that are compatible with your version of GLPI.
 
<b>NOTE:</b> Fusionintentory for GLPI 0.83.* or lower will need dependencies php-soap, php-xmlrpc and Webservices and the four separate packages for Fusioninventory are in the "metapackages" download for your version of GLPI. Fusioninventory will have four separate plugins to install and activate. GLPI version 0.84.* does not need php-soap, php-xmlrpc or Webservices. There is only one package for Fusioninventory which contains everything you need.
Unpack them into the <i>/var/hda/web-apps/glpi/html/plugins</i> directory. (Be sure to read the directions for each of the plugins. Some directories in the plugins require full read/write access for the installation of the plugin.)
=== Login Credentials: ===
'''''User name''''': glpiMake use to change the default password to protect your local system. ===Installing and Enabling Fusioninventory===<u>Moving the Fusioninventory Directory</u><br />'''''Password''''': Extract the Fusioninventory for GLPI directory. Be sure the individual files stay in the Fusioninventory folder. Copy the entire folder into the GLPI Plugins directory<code>cp -R whereever-you-extrated-file/fusioninventory /var/hda/web-apps/glpi/html/plugins
Make use to change this password to protect your local system.
<u>Installing the Plugins</u><br />
Within GLPI, go to "Setup > Plugins."<br />
In the table that presents itself you should see Webservices and four other plugins associated with the Fusioninventoryplugin. To install, update or enable any plugin, one clicks on "install," "update," or "enable" in the table across from the plugin you want to activate in GLPI. The last step is to "enable" the plugin. Until this is done the plugin is not available. Once this is done, you will see Fusioninventory listed on the GLPI menu under "Plugins." 
<u>Webservices First</u><br />
I had to install and/or update and enable the Webservices plugin first. I don't know if it was a coincidence or not, but things started working after I did clean install of the Fusioninventory plugin after installing Webservices.
<u>Fusioninventory Plugins</u><br />
Next, install the Fusioninventory plugin parts. There are four different component that have to be installed in a certain order. (GLPI will not let you install or update/enable other parts until prerequisites are in place. Just follow it intuitively.)
<u>The All-Important URL</u><br />
Go to <i>Plugins > Fusioninventory > Setup</i> in the GLPI menu and put the long url address for an Amahi app with the direcory directory additions needed. See the example below:
<nowiki>http://glpi.AAAA.com/plugins/fusioninventory</ nowiki> ("AAAA" being the local domain.)
<u>Connecting to the Agents</u><br />
The same exact A different url goes in the each agent.  <inowiki>Pluginshttp://glpi.AAAA.com/plugins/fusioninventory/Fusioninventoryfront/General Settingsplugin_fusioninventory.communication.php</inowiki> menu has to be in each agent, the agent you install on your server and then on each device. I just pulled up GLPI's web console and copied/pasted the url from the screen. Then I knew what ("AAAA" being the agent and the server had were identicallocal domain. )I had the agent do a "force inventory" and its information showed up in the <i>Inventory > Computers</i> screen of GLPI. To do a "force inventory" on a client computer, go to <b><u><nowiki>http://localhost:62354</nowiki></u></b> and click on the "force inventory" link.
Done.
