easy_install supervisor
echo_supervisord_conf > /etc/supervisord.conf

Add the noclook start script to the supervisor configuration.

Set up a GIT repository for the JSON files produced by the NERDS producers and make a clone in /var/opt/. We have a GIT repository called nistore
and we have made a clone found at /var/opt/nistore/.

Produce JSON files with the producers you want.

Consume the recently produces JSON files with the NORDUni consume scripts.

h2. Install Neo4j graph database

h3. Neo4j 1.5 embedded with Python bindings (recommended)
Install JPype and Neo4j-embedded.
Download jpype. (http://sourceforge.net/projects/jpype/files/)

h3. Neo4j 1.3 REST stand alone server
Download neo4j-1.3 from http://neo4j.org.
Extract the file to, for example, /var/opt/norduni/dependencies/.

Copy the startup script from /var/opt/norduni/scr/scripts/neo4j/ to /etc/init.d/ and then make neo4j start on boot.

You need to shut down port 7474 from anything except localhost.

Save the rules and add the following line to your interface configuration so you will restore the rules on a reboot.

h3. Old Apache stuff
Configure the web server to play nice with neo4j-embedded. Install apache2-mpm-prefork libapache2-mod-wsgi.

Create a file name niweb in /etc/apache2/conf.d/.

Add niweb path to niweb.wsgi

/etc/apache2.conf

Add the following lines to /etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl
