Compilation and Installation

Procedure

1. Use PuTTY to log in to the server as the root user.
2. Go to the following directory:

   cd /path/to/ROOT

3. Decompress the ROOT installation package and go to the installation directory.

   tar -xzvf root_v6.20.00.source.tar.gz
   cd root-6.20.00

4. Create and access the directory for compiling the ROOT software.

   mkdir obj
   cd obj

5. Ensure that the server is connected to the Internet and compile and install the software.

   cmake ./ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/ROOT -DENABLE_PERL=FALSE
   make
   make install

6. Add the environment variables.

   source ../bin/thisroot.sh
