recommended to better understand why Mayan EDMS does some of the things it
does.
Compilers and development libraries will be installed to compile runtime
libraries. LibreOffice and Poppler utils will also be installed as they are
used to convert document files. Supervisor (http://supervisord.org/), a
Process Control System, will be used to monitor and keep all Mayan processes
running.
Basic deployment
================
This setup uses less memory and CPU resources at the expense of some speed.
For another setup that offers more performance and scalability refer to the
`Advanced deployment`_ below.

This step will create all the database structures, download static media files
like JavaScript libraries and HTML frameworks, and create and initial admin
account with a random password.
.. note::
For simplicity, the ``MAYAN_MEDIA_ROOT`` folder is set to be a subfolder
of the installation. If you want to keep your files separated from
the installation files, change the value of the ``MAYAN_MEDIR_ROOT``
variable in this and all subsequent steps. Be sure to first create the
folder and give owership of it to the ``mayan`` user with the ``chown``
command.
.. warning::
If this step is interrupted, even if it is later resumed, will
cause the automatic admin user to no be created in some cases. Make sure all
environment variable and values are correct. If this happens, refer to the
troubleshooting chapters: :ref:`troubleshooting-autoadmin-account` and

===================
This variation uses RabbitMQ as the message broker. RabbitMQ consumes more
memory but scales to thousands of messages. RabbitMQ messages are also
persistent, this means that pending tasks are not lost in the case of a
restart. The database connection lifetime is increased to 10 minutes.
The Gunicorn workers are increased to 3.
