Default Initial Installation

By default, SITC installs WebMO Basic and the mopac7 computational engine. This combination allows installation on very small virtual machines and is useful for proof-of-concept, experimentation, or demonstration. The default installation is recommended the first time you install a SITC instance.

The default installation also automatically updates the operating system, installs perl and the apache webserver, and configures the system for WebMO.

After creating a virtual machine as described in the above links, the following commands perform a default installation:

$ curl -O https://www.webmo.net/cloud/sitc.tar.gz
$ tar xzf sitc.tar.gz
$ ./sitc/install
