OpenEMR on Lion Server.

If you try this on Lion without server, some locations will need to change.
Install and setup MySQL, PHP and Xdebug according to this web site: http://akrabat.com/php/setting-up-php-mysql-on-os-x-10-7-lion/
When editing php.ini
Change:
short_open_tag = On
max_execution_time = 60
max_input_time = 90
post_max_size = 30M
upload_max_filesize = 30M
Check:
memory_limit = 128M
display_errors = Off
log_errors = On
register_globals = Off
file_uploads = On
Use terminal to make mysql secure:
mysql -u root -p
mysql> DROP DATABASE test;
mysql> DELETE FROM mysql.user WHERE user = '';
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
mysql>quit;
Create a plain text file named openemr.conf and file it with this:
<Directory /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/Default/openemr-4.1.0/sites/default/documents>
order deny,allow
Deny from all
</Directory>
<Directory /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/Default/openemr-4.1.0/sites/default/edi>
order deny,allow
Deny from all
</Directory>
<Directory /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/Default/openemr-4.1.0/sites/default/era>
order deny,allow
Deny from all
</Directory>
Save it on the desktop and move it to /private/etc/apache2/sites in terminal
sudo cp -p ~/Desktop/openemr.conf /etc/apache2/sites/openemr.conf
In the Finder: Go->Go to Folder->/Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/
Get Info for Default
Change Sharing & Permissions so all groups can Read & Write, remember what it was to put it back later.
Download, expand and move openemr-4.1.0 to /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/Default
In terminal:
cd /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/Default
ln -s openemr-4.1.0 openemr
cd openemr
sudo chmod 666 library/sqlconf.php
sudo chmod 666 interface/globals.php
sudo chown -R _www:_www sites
sudo chown -R _www:_www library/freeb
sudo chown -R _www:_www gacl/admin/templates_c
sudo chown -R _www:_www interface/main/calendar/modules/PostCalendar/pntemplates/cache
sudo chown -R _www:_www interface/main/calendar/modules/PostCalendar/pntemplates/compiled
Open up web-browser and point it to the installation script at http://localhost/openemr/setup.php
When done, change back Sharing & Permissions on /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/Default.

Good luck and enjoy.
