You can install Elixir Ambience on any computer running Oracle Java 7 or later. There is enhanced support for Debian (Linux) systems, Microsoft Windows and OSX machines. In the following discussion we will demonstrate the configuration of a single domain called "eno". The eno domain uses an internal authentication system so it requires no additional third-party components and hence no external configuration.

Before Beginning

Please install the appropriate Oracle Java runtime (or development environment) for your computer. You may choose either 64-bit or 32-bit versions depending on your hardware - Elixir Ambience will work fine with either kind. To ensure Java is correctly installed, open a command prompt and type

java -version

to check that the correct version of Java is available. A common problem is to have multiple versions of Java installed and the operating system finds the wrong one by default. This is because new versions of Java seldom automatically remove previous editions.
