The following description will show you how to install FHEM on Windows on a separate
|
|
|
|
|
USB-Drive, without any Windows-registry modifications.
|
|
|
|
|
You can use the internal HD for installation too, and you can register fhem as
|
|
|
|
|
a service, see below.

|
|
|
Install FHEM:
|
|
|
|
|
Download the latest fhem-X.Y.tar.gz package from http://fhem.de#Download
|
|
|
|
|
(currently it is fhem-5.4.tar.gz), and unpack it into a directory where you
|
|
|
|
|
have at least 350MB+ free space. I will use F:\tmp for this purpose, after
|
|
|
|
|
unpacking the .tar.gz file we will have a new directory F:\tmp\fhem-5.4
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install perl:
|
|
|
|
|
Download a Strawberry perl Portable-Edition (this version won't
|
|
|
|
|
generate Registry-Entries, and can be installed on USB disks) from
|
|
|
|
|
http://strawberryperl.com/releases.html, and extract it into the previously
|
|
|
|
|
created directory, in our case F:\tmp\fhem-5.4
|
|
|
|
|
My file was called strawberry-perl-5.16.2.1-32bit-portable.zip
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Start FHEM:
|
|
|
|
|
Open a command line window (cmd), change to the previous directory, and start
|
|
|
|
|
FHEM:
|
|
|
|
|
C:> F:
|
|
|
|
|
F:> cd \tmp\fhem-5.4
|
|
|
|
|
F:\tmp\fhem-5.4> mkdir log
|
|
|
|
|
F:\tmp\fhem-5.4> perl\bin\perl fhem.pl fhem.cfg
|
|
|
|
|
Note:
|
|
|
|
|
There is no visible output and the command won't terminate.
|
|
|
|
|
You probably have to confirm a Firewall exception (Do not block), as FHEM
|
|
|
|
|
opens a Web-Server Port.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Connect to the FHEM Web frontend (FHEMWEB):
|
2013-08-25 11:49:30 +00:00
|
|
|
Start your browser (Firefox, Chrome or Safari are preferred) and open
|
2013-08-15 19:49:31 +00:00
|
|
|
http://localhost:8083/fhem
|
2013-08-18 10:27:00 +00:00
|
|
|
You'll see a smiling-house icon on a light-yellow background.
|
2013-08-15 19:49:31 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Update FHEM to get access to the latest development version (recommended but
|
|
|
|
|
not mandatory):
|
|
|
|
|
In the browser window, on the FHEMWEB page, in the command line (upper text
|
|
|
|
|
input field, right of the smiling house icon), type in the following 4
|
|
|
|
|
commands one-by-one, confirming each one with Enter:
|
|
|
|
|
notice confirm update-20130127-001
|
|
|
|
|
attr global backup_before_update 0
|
|
|
|
|
save
|
|
|
|
|
update
|
|
|
|
|
Note:
|
|
|
|
|
- the last command will take a while (around a minute), and after finished
|
|
|
|
|
it will ask you to "shutdown restart". Ignore this, and just type
|
|
|
|
|
shutdown in the FHEMWEB command line.
|
|
|
|
|
- Switch to the command line window, and restart FHEM with the last command,
|
|
|
|
|
i.e. arrow up and RETURN or type in
|
|
|
|
|
perl\bin\perl fhem.pl fhem.cfg
|
|
|
|
|
again.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install FHEM as a service (better to install perl on the internal hard-disk for
|
|
|
|
|
this scenario):
|
|
|
|
|
Terminate fhem by typing shutdown again in the FHEMWEB command line.
|
|
|
|
|
Install the missing Win32::Daemon perl module by typing in the command window:
|
|
|
|
|
F:\tmp\fhem-5.4> PATH=F:\tmp\fhem-5.4\c\bin;F:\tmp\fhem-5.4\perl\bin;%PATH%
|
|
|
|
|
F:\tmp\fhem-5.4> perl\bin\cpan -i Win32::Daemon
|
|
|
|
|
Install FHEM as a service
|
|
|
|
|
F:\tmp\fhem-5.4> perl\bin\perl fhem.pl fhem.cfg -i
|
