What is Scoop
Scoop is a "collaborative media application". It falls somewhere between a content management system, a web bulletin board system, and a weblog. Scoop is designed to enable your website to become a community. It empowers your visitors to be the producers of the site, contributing news and discussion, and making sure that the signal remains high. More >>

Where can I get Scoop
You can download the latest release tarball: scoop_1.1.8.tar.gz

You can grab the nightly build. Note: This is generated automatically from the current CVS, and may not be reliable! Get that here: scoop-1.1-nightly.tar.gz

The developers strongly recommend CVS as the primary way to obtain Scoop, since releases tend to have pretty long delays between them. If you have CVS installed, do the following:

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@ scoop.versionhost.com:/cvs/scoop login

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@ scoop.versionhost.com:/cvs/scoop co scoop

The above is two commands; each one must be on a single line. When prompted for a password for anonymous, enter 'anonymous' (without the quotes). For more CVS info, "Open Source Development with CVS" is an excellent online reference.

Where can I get help
There are several sources of information and support for Scoop. The first place to look is the scoop-help mailing list. You can browse the archives, or join the list. If you want to post a question, joining the list is strongly recommended. You can also join the #scoop IRC channel on SlashNET.

For documentation, there is the (largely complete) Scoop administrator's guide. You can also read the current README and INSTALL files, from Scoop WebCVS (username and password are both "anonymous"). The admin guide is also included with Scoop, in the doc/ directory.

If you have new feature ideas or requests, or descriptions of something you're working on for Scoop, this site is the place to submit them. You can also search this site for information. If you want to get your hands dirty, or have any questions about developing for Scoop, there is also the Scoop-dev list. You can browse the archives, or join the list.

Bug reports and patches should be filed on the Scoop Bug Muncher.

If you have any problems with this site or your user account, e-mail the Admin

Installed Scoop on Westhost.com VPS... Developer Diary
By bluefrog , Section Dev Notes []
Posted on Sun Jun 18, 2006 at 10:34:44 AM PST

A lot of trial and error in this install but I got Scoop to work on a Virtual Private Server account at WestHost.com.

First, I cut my teeth on Microsoft, so this was my first real venture into Unix. Got a first rate lesson on SSH, CPAN, CHMOD, TAR, MYSQL, PHP, Perl, FTP -> you name it!.

The thing about a VPS install is you do not have root access so you have to do all these tricks to get around not having write access to certain directories. I don't know what impact these changes have on the integrity and security of the website. Any insights will be appreciated.

  • Redhat Linux
  • Apache/1.3.27

Hope this helps...

Oh, my site is called blue frog group. Still using the default templates and stylesheets. I'm just now getting into the customizing part so it may go up and down while I develop it.
