The following instructions are tested to work with *Parliament 2.7.4 quickstart* on a *CentOS 6.4* platform.

We could not manage to install Parliament quickstart package in a debian/squeeze platform due to binary incompatibilities 

with system's glibc version.

Install prerequisite packages:

<pre>

# yum install unzip wget

# yum install java-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64 java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel.x86_64

</pre>

Download quickastart package and unzip into <code>/usr/local/ParliamentKB</code>:

<pre>

# mkdir -p /usr/local/ParliamentKB ~/packages

# wget http://semwebcentral.org/frs/download.php/510/ParliamentQuickStart-v2.7.4-centos-gcc-64.zip -O ~/packages/ParliamentQuickStart-v2.7.4-centos-gcc-64.zip

# cd /usr/local/ParliamentKB

# unzip ~/packages/ParliamentQuickStart-v2.7.4-centos-gcc-64.zip

</pre>

Make startup script executable, and start server:

<pre>

# chmod +x StartParliament.sh

# ./StartParliament.sh

</pre>

The last command runs on the foreground as minimal console-based interactive session. You should attach/detach to

this process in order to gracefully shutdown the server (otherwise you will end-up with a broken database).
