Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Recently, the Open Source Software (OSS) has become used at many places. However, the use of an OSS is hard for its novice users, because many OSSes have few good manuals, and the installation of an OSS package sometimes requires installations of multiple OSS packages to be integrated together. To solve this problem, we have proposed a method of automatically enerating a WEB manual for installing an OSS by editing the log information recorded during the installation process by a skilled user.This method has a problem of requiring different manuals even for the same OSS, because installation commands may be different depending on the OS distribution for the PC and the OS/OSS versions. It is impossible to create all the manuals to cover any difference. In this paper, we propose a WEB database system for managing installation manuals so that skilled OSS users can easily upload new manuals for OSSes with new versions, and the similar manual display function after investigating differences of installation commands under different OS/OSS versions and OS distributions.
