Answer

Below is a step-by-step illustrated tutorial on how to build the application from source. It covers how to check out the source code from the repository using a Subversion client, how to manually create the database schema, how to configure the various properties files required by ant for the installation, how to invoke Ant from the command line, and how to launch the caArray server once the build has completed successfully.
