THIS IS AN UNFINISHED DOCUMENT. IT WILL BE FINISHED SHORTLY SO PLEASE CHECK BACK OFTEN.

What you should know:

Adempiere is a very powerful system, and as such can be difficult to set up. Everything is continually being made easier, and this wiki page will be updated to reflect those changes. This page will only explain installation of the latest non SVN version.


Software

An installed and functioning Ubuntu system. The Java Development Kit. Internet Access (preferably high speed.) build-essential (Installable from the ubuntu repositories)


Hardware

I have personally run this on a system with the following specs, it was not in a production environment though:

Athlon XP 1800 512 MB of ram 80GB Hard Disk


Basic Steps

  • 1. Make sure that you don't have postgresql installed or running. This can be done by opening synaptic and marking the package for removal.
  • 2. Download the Java Development Kit from Sun.
  • 3. Download the Java installer from the sourceforge.net site.
  • 4. Install the Java Development Kit
  • 5. Download the Adempiere Installation package.
  • 6. Install the Adempiere system.
  • 7. Test and let us know what we need to do to make this howto better.

Preparing for Installation

1. Ensure that you meet the minimum requirements. (We are currently finding out what those are exactly.) 2. Install the package "build-essential" You do that by opening a terminal and entering "sudo apt-get build-essential" (without the quotes) 3. Create a user named postgres.
