Download Installer
- Download the latest tested ADempiereInstaller1111.zip from here. (Fig.i)
- Its size is 270Mb. Full execution on a Windows PC may take as fast as 15 minutes.
- Related Sourceforge forum thread.
- NOTE: When executing the installer, ensure you have UAC (User Account Control - needed in Vista) off and Run as administrator. (Fig.ii)
This installer has been tested many times to work quite easily. If you should hit an error, just Windows Uninstall the option concerned, ensure clean delete of old files and run the installer again.
- Opening screen
Just click Next and listen to the music
Uninstalling
- Now you have succesfully installed everything as you can see on the screen below. From here you can do uninstall when needed.
- If you wish to uninstall due to some fault, you can do so from the Control Panel and select 'Uninstall Programs'.
- Uninstall in the ADempiere_Home folder only removes the ADempiere binary and its folders and contents but do not remove Java nor Postgres.
- You have to delete the folder of the packages you uninstalled to ensure it is cleanly removed. Otherwise a reinstall won't guarantee to work.
Troubleshooting
- If ADempiere cannot launch at all.
- Go to the DOS prompt and cd to your adempiere_home to launch adempiere. I.e. D:/Adempiere/RUN_Adempiere.bat
- Note the prompt lines to tell you what are the errors for your further action. (see FiG 1)
Run Setup
- One way is to RUN_setup again to make sure all the settings are right. You can run this many times and it does not disrupt your database. See FIG 2.
- D:/Adempiere/RUN_setup.bat FIG 3 will appear.
- Put localhost as your Database Server name
- Click on TEST and on success click on SAVE.
Connection Test
- If it launches but cannot connect to database.
- Click on the Server connection icon. See FIG 4.
- Select Postgres as database
- Put localhost as your Database Server name.
- Put 'adempiere' (or what you gave above) as password
- Press the Test Database button only. All these refers to FIG 5.
- If it turns green then only go to the Application Server.
How To Upgrade To Latest Version
- With ADempiere you can easily do that.
- First you have to download the latest binary with data dump
- Then you go and replace the binary in your home directory, and place the Adempiere.dmp in /data folder.
- Then go to and run <ADempiere-Home>/RUN_Setup.bat or better still RUN_silentsetup.bat.
- Then execute <ADempiere-Home>/utils/RUN_ImportAdempiere.bat
How Not To Overwrite Your Previous Version
- Then you have to not run ImportAdempiere.bat but just run all the migration scripts since the last version.
How To Keep Updating to latest from Trunk
- You run all the migration scripts from last release
- You compile the latest trunk source and replace the newly compiled binary at <ADempiere-Home>
- RUN_silentsetup.bat again
