Download OpenCms:
Of course you need OpenCms itself.
Download it from the OpenCms website or see how to build it from the sources.
To run OpenCms you need:
- A database system that is supported by OpenCms
- Java 1.4 or higher
- A servlet container (aka. 'servlet engine') that forms the basis for running OpenCms
The most well-tested open source components for getting started with OpenCms are:
- Mysql, Version 4.0 or higher as database system
- Sun Java, Version 1.5 or higher
- Jakarta Tomcat, Version 5.0 or higher as servlet container
- It is not totally necessary, but a good idea to install a webserver like Apache, for handling all requests that arrive at your website.
- Another optional component is Apache Portable Runtime, a set of libraries that increase Tomcat performance.
