RUNNING SANDBOX MODE (the standard way)



To get up and running in sandbox mode, please start up opensim like this from the command line:



(first ensure you are in the right directory)



OpenSim.exe -sandbox (windows)



mono OpenSim.exe -sandbox (linux/BSD/MacOS X)



Then startup your second life viewer with the following parameters:



-loginuri http://yourserver:9000/



The method to do this is dependent upon your OS. "yourserver" will be 127.0.0.1 if you accept the defaults when starting opensim.





RUNNING SANDBOX WITH USER ACCOUNTS



* open cmd window, go to /bin and launch 

OpenSim.exe -sandbox -loginserver -useraccounts



* launch web browser, go to

http://localhost:9000/Admin

enter password 'Admin'



* Select 'Accounts', enter credentials, press 'Create'



* Now, log on thru your viewer (see above) with your newly created credentials.



* Have Fun!





PREBUILD



We use Prebuild to generate vs2005 solutions and nant build scripts.



=== Building Prebuild ===



At the moment, the Prebuild exe is shipped as /bin/Prebuild.exe so you shouldn't really have to build it.



But here's the instructions anyway :



The Prebuild master project is /prebuild.xml



To build it with vs2005 :



* build the solution /Prebuild/Prebuild.sln



To build it with nant :



* cd to /Prebuild/

* type 'nant'



After you've built it, it will land in the root /bin/ directory,



=== Modyfying the OpenSim solution ===



When adding or changing projects, modify the prebuild.xml and then execute



bin/Prebuild.exe /target {target}



where target is either 

vs2005 - to generate new vs2005 solutions and projects

nant - to generate new nant build scripts



Remember to run prebuild whenever you've added or removed files as well.
