Elixir Ambience 3.5.0 features a simplified and easy installation process.
The easiest way to get familiar with Elixir Ambience is to install a small system on your local machine. You can use the cross-platform release to do this. Later on, if you want to deploy to other machines, get tighter integration with your chosen operating system, or set up services to automatically start when your server boots, you can review the platform-specific releases which are described later in this document.
The following software must be installed before getting started:
Operating System: 32-bit or 64-bit Microsoft Windows, Linux, OSX and more.Any OS on which Java runs should be able to run Ambience.
For Server and Designer: Oracle Java Platform Standard Edition 7. Either the Java Runtime Edition (JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK) may be used.
For Client: For full functionality, choose a browser that supports both HTML5 and JavaScript.
apt-get install unzipas root or using sudo.
For Server and Designer: These can be installed on any 32-bit or 64-bit computing system, which is able to run Oracle Java Platform Standard Edition 7.
RAM: The amount of RAM required depends on expected usage. A minimum RAM of 4GB is recommended for lightweight use.
Free disk space: At least 2 GB of free disk space is required.
Windows File System: Ensure that you use NTFS and NOT FAT as Ambience needs to create symbolic links during its course of operation.
