Getting Started
Follow these steps to get your openM2 system up and running:
Step#1: Check System Requirements
Please prepare and install the required server environment and check if your client meets the defined requirements.
Server
- Webserver: Tomcat 6 (7 is not confirmed yet)
- Java: V. 1.6
- Database: MS-SQL Server Express 2005 or higher
Client
- Webbrowser: supported on Internet Explorer - V. 7,8,9 and Firefox - V. 9, 10
- Java Script and Cookies must be activated in order to run openM2 properly in your browser
Step#2: Installation
Now start with the installation process:
- Download the Installation-Package from Sourceforge (here)
- Download the Installation-Documentation (here) and follow the instructions
Note that a typical first installation of openM2 takes about 15 minutes. The installation is fairly easy but we will work on making this procedure even more comfortable for you in the future. We are planning to publish an installation video in the future.
