NOTE: This is for Amahi 7 on Fedora 19. Ubuntu has not been tested. Anyone wanting to try it, please make notes here for the Amahi community. Thanks.

NOTE: 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 /var/hda/web-apps/glpi/html/plugins 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.)

Installing and Enabling Fusioninventory

Moving the Fusioninventory Directory
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 cp -R whereever-you-extrated-file/fusioninventory /var/hda/web-apps/glpi/html/plugins

Installing the Plugins Within GLPI, go to "Setup > Plugins." In the table that presents itself you should see the Fusioninventory plugin. 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."

The All-Important URL Go to Plugins > Fusioninventory > Setup in the GLPI menu and put the long url address for an Amahi app with the directory additions needed. See the example below:

 http://glpi.AAAA.com/ ("AAAA" being the local domain.)

Connecting to the Agents

A different url goes in each agent.

 http://glpi.AAAA.com/plugins/fusioninventory/front/plugin_fusioninventory.communication.php ("AAAA" being the local domain.)

I had the agent do a "force inventory" and its information showed up in the Inventory > Computers screen of GLPI. To do a "force inventory" on a client computer, go to http://localhost:62354 and click on the "force inventory" link.
Done.

-In the table that presents itself you should see Webservices and four other plugins associated with Fusioninventory.  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.

-<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.

-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.)

-The same exact url in the <i>Plugins/Fusioninventory/General Settings</i> 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 the agent and the server had were identical.  I had the agent do a "force inventory" and its information showed up in the <i>Inventory > Computers</i> screen of GLPI.
