Prerequisites Java Development environment

The Magnolia CMS requires a Java Development toolkit (Java Development kit,jdk) on Windows. Use the Java tester to check if the system has Java installed. The Java Live environment (Java Runtime ENVIRONMENT,JRE) cannot be used because it cannot be recognized by the Tomcat application server.

What's the difference?

• The JRE is a Java Virtual machine implementation that is used to actually execute Java programs.
• The JDK is a software package that you can use to develop Java-based applications.

If you do not have a JDK, download and install it from http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp. By default, the JDK is installed C:\Program Files (x86)\java\jdk<version> under the path. You can also choose a different location.

Check Java_home environment variables

1. Open a command Prompt window.
2. In this command Prompt window, enter set and press ENTER.
3. Locate it in the displayed results JAVA_HOME , and verify that it matches your JRE installation directory, such as C:\Program Files (x86)\java\jre6 .
4. 如果找不到JAVA_HOME，或指向错误的目录，参看Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable. If everything is OK, go to download Magnolia CMS.
   

Setting Java_home Environment variables

2. Right -click My Computer and select properties .
4. Open the Advanced tab.
   (in Windows 7, right-click the computer and select Advanced system Settings , then select Environment variables.) )
6. 如果JAVA_HOME环境变量在用户变量or the system variable does not exist, you can create it this way:
   
   • The user variable applies only to the currently logged-on user. If you want to JAVA_HOME apply only to the currently logged-in user, create it here. These variables take precedence over system variables.
   • System Variables apply to all users. If you want to JAVA_HOME apply to all users, create it here. You must modify the system environment variables as an administrator.
     
8. Set JAVA_HOME the value for your JDK installation path, such as C:\Program Files (x86)\java\jdk1.7.0_11 .
10. Optional steps: For your convenience to start the Magnolia CMS start and stop commands (no need to enter the installation directory), you can PATH add Magnolia cms directory in the variable, bin such as C:\Program Files\magnolia\apache-tomcat-5.5.27\bin , using the English semicolon (; ) to separate the path from the existing path. Also, you need to add the environment variable CATALINA_HOME and set its value to the Tomcat installation directory, asC:\Program Files\magnolia\apache-tomcat-5.5.27。

12. Click OK .
14. Open a new command Prompt window (this is because each dialog has a specific environment variable) to test that the system can find the environment variable and set the correct value.

You can also use batch file Settings JAVA_HOME . Add the following line of code to the /apache-tomcat/bin/magnolia_control.bat。set command to run automatically at Magnolia startup, create an JAVA_HOME environment variable, and set its value to the JDK directory.

set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files (x86)\java\jdk1.7.0_11

Download
