NOTE: You may find it easier to use Docker

The following instructions are for Debian or Ubuntu Linux. For other Linux distributions please adapt the commands accordingly.

  1. Install the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK) version 8 and above. Starting from Joget v6.0.15, JAVA 8 is required due to fixes for vulnerability issues of a dependent library.

    sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install default-jre

  2. Install MySQL Server version 5.5 and above

    sudo apt-get install mysql-server
sudo service mysql start

  3. Create a new directory for the installation

    mkdir joget
cd joget
  4. Download the Joget Workflow Linux tar.gz bundle from http://www.joget.org/download

  5. Extract the Linux tar.gz bundle

    tar xvfz joget-enterprise-linux-x.x.x.tar.gz 
cd joget-enterprise-linux-x.x.x

  6. Execute the bundled Apache Tomcat application server

    ./tomcat8.sh start

  7. View the Apache Tomcat log file, when startup is complete it should say "Server startup in XXXX ms"

    tail -f apache-tomcat-8.0.20/logs/catalina.out
  8. Access the App Center at http://localhost:8080/jw

  9. Follow on with Setting Up Database.

    For the Community Edition, you will need to delete the default datasource configuration file first before setting up the database:

    rm wflow/app_datasource.properties
