How do I install OpenACS?
Go to OpenACS documentation, click on the most recent stable version, and click on the Install Guide. You also might want to refer to the current documentation, to see if there are updates to the documentation. In addition to the install guide, there are binary installers. In general, although the manual installation is more complex and is one of OpenACS’s weaknesses, it is worth going through if you are planning on using OpenACS.
