Joget 3 Instalation from source

Install Prerequisites

Install Joget Workflow and ensure that it can run (very important step to create jar files that will be copied to the maven repository prior to compilation)
Install JDK 6
Install MySQL 5
Get and install Apache Maven from http://maven.apache.org/
Get and install Git Client from http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/

Unzip the attached http://dev.joget.org/community/download/attachments/655444/joget-maven-setup.zip?version=1&modificationDate=1281595952000 into the Joget Workflow installation directory (C:\Joget-v3-Beta). This zip should contain 2 files: setup-maven.xml and shark-maven-2.0.1.pom.
In the Joget Workflow installation directory, execute the setup-maven.xml file using Ant to add the required 3rd party libraries into your local Maven repository apache-ant-1.7.1/bin/ant -f setup-maven.xml
NOTE: This step needs to be done for the first time only
NOTE: Open the setup-maven.xml file; replace "apache-tomcat-6.0.18/webapps/wflow-wfweb/" with "apache-tomcat-6.0.18/webapps/jw/" using your favorite text editor.
NOTE: Open the setup-maven.xml file; replace "apache-tomcat-6.0.18/webapps/wflow-designerweb/" with "apache-tomcat-6.0.18/webapps/jwdesigner/" using your favorite text editor.

Checkout the source from public mirror at GitHub at https://github.com/jogetworkflow/jw-community . use the following command from a git bash screen: git clone https://github.com/jogetworkflow/jw-community.git , this will download the latest copy of the source files.
