Installing O3space on your linux system

I am making here documentation for how to install o3workspace so that any visitor on this site can have full fledge process of installation, otherwise one has to wander from one site to another as i did.

1) first of all you need to have O3spaces.deb package . For that just go to www.o3spaces.org. There you find Register section Register under Communtiy edition (it is completely free).After Go to your mail activate your account on o3space. as soon as account is activated you will get another mail having username and password.With this username and password log on to o3spaces and after that download .deb package.
2) For O3space to work you need sun-java-6-jdk and sun-java-6-jre.
To install it Got to terminal and type:
$sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner"
$sudo apt-get update
$sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
3) After that follow step and when installed. Go to Application Menu then System and open java console and enable a server either localhostor remote one.
4)After that run o3space.deb package to install your o3space on ubuntu.
after completion. Go to browser type http://localhost:8095/Spaces or type
http://localhost:8095/Studio (Command line is here for o3spaces).You will something see like this when use Spaces.

You can also change your ip from localhost to your own ip. Means you can also have http://myip:8095/Studio or http://myip:8095/Spaces. So, For that you first need to shutdown your tomcat server. With o3spaces.deb tomcat get installed simultaneously.
For shutdown Go to terminal and type:
$sudo -s
#cd /opt/O3Spaces/tomcat/bin
#./shutdown.sh
But remember before executing script ./shutdown.sh you need to do some changes in shutdown.sh
#gedit /opt/O3Spaces/tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh
Caution!!find somewhat written like sun-java-1.6.3. and replace it by sun-java6-jdk Save it same changes you need to make it in startup.sh also.
This will stop your tomcat. After that go to terminal again and type.
#gedit /opt/O3Spaces/tomcat/conf/server.xml
Here find localhost and replace it with your server domain and then restart tomacat server. And then you can access o3spaces from your desired ip.
