In order to install Servoy, the following system specifications are required:
- Hardware capable of running the Servoy Application Server (see chart below)
Windows |
Linux |
OS X |
---|---|---|
Intel Pentium III, IV, M, D 1Ghz or higher |
Intel Pentium III, IV, M, D 1Ghz or higher |
Intel CPU 1 Ghz or higher |
- Java Standard Edition Runtime environment (JRE) 5.0 or higher (Java 6 preferred)
Note: Taking advantage of 64bit capabilities
If the machine on which the Servoy Application Server gets installed is 64 bit, make sure that the installation is performed in a 64bit runtime environment.
Note: Running on 32bit Windows environments
On Windows 32 bit environments, Java Development Kit (JDK) is required to take advantage of Java SE Server mode.
- Linux
Note: Running Servoy Developer on Ubuntu 13.04
Running the version of Eclipse on which Servoy Developer 7 is currently based on Ubuntu 13.04 requires some additional pre and post installation steps.
Pre installation- Install open jdk 1.7 from the Ubuntu repository
- When installing the bundled PostgreSQL, increase the kernel max shared memory, ex: sudo sysctl -w kernel.shmmax=536870912
- When installing the bundled PostgreSQL on a 64bit environment, install the ia32-libs package, as the bundled PostgreSQL is the 32bit version and it needs some shared libs on 32 bit.
Additionally the libpam librarie need to be downloaded from http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/i386/libpam0g/download and the content of the lib folder contained in the download needs to be copied as root to the /lib folder - For the browser in Eclipse the libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 will be used. As the official libs for this Linux distribution are broken in combination with Eclipse, they will need to be download and installed from an earlier version. The files can be downloaded from the following locations:
- http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/libjavascriptcoregtk-1.0-0 (First remove already installed version if applicable)
- http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/libwebkitgtk-1.0-common
- http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/libwebkitgtk-1.0-0
