Installation¶

System Requirements Java VM 6 or above BaasBox is compiled with Java 1.6

1. Download the latest version from the Download, keep in mind that until the 1.0 version will be released, BaasBox is not production-ready and therefore subject to change. For Windows Platforms on the same page you will find the start.tar.gz file.
2. Unzip the file baasbox-x.x.zip wherever you want.
3. Only for Windows Platforms: unzip the start.tar.gz file and put the extracted start.bat in the same directory
4. Type:
   • start.bat (on Windows)
   • ./start (on linux, in this case pay attention to the eXecution flag)

BaasBox will start and will create the DB directory, then it will listen on port 9000. Go to http://localhost:9000/ with your preferred browser. If everything worked fine, the BaasBox logo should appear. Now you can open the Administrator Console: http://localhost:9000/console For further clarifications about the console, you can read the Console That’s all! BaasBox is ready to go and to serve your Apps! To stop the server just halt (CTRL-C) the shell script.
