This is a caching http proxy with integrated search engine.
|
||
|
The complete documentation can be found inside the 'doc' subdirectory
|
||
|
in this release.
|
||
|
Start browsing the manual by opening the index.html file with our web browser.
|
||
|
|
||
|
YOU NEED JAVA 1.4.2 TO RUN THIS APPLICATION! PLEASE DOWNLOAD FROM java.sun.com

Startup of YACY:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- on Linux : start startYACY.sh ("nohup ./startYACY.sh > yacy.log &")
|
||
|
- on Windows : double-click startYACY.bat
|
||
|
- on Mac OS X : double-click startYACY.command (alias possible!)
|
||
|
- on any other OS : set your classpath to the 'Classes' folder
|
||
|
and execute yacy.class, while your current system
|
||
|
path must target the release directory to access the
|
||
|
configuration files.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Then start to administrate yacy by using the applications on-line
|
||
|
interface: browse to http://localhost:8080, you see you personal
|
||
|
proxy configuration and administration interface.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Configure you internet connection to use yacy at port 8080.
|
||
|
You can also change the default proxy port.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you like to use yacy not as proxy but only as distributed crawling/search
|
||
|
engine, you can do so. Start crawling at the 'Index Creation' menu point.
