Installation - Linux Server

This page describes installing the Linux version of the Standard ERP server installation. Please refer here for details about creating a multi-user installation as a whole.

---

If your server is a Linux machine, you should use the relevant command line version of the Standard ERP application as your server application. If the machine itself has a graphical interface and is accessible, you can install this application following the procedure described in step 5 on the single-user page. If the machine does not have a graphical interface or you want to use the Terminal, follow these steps:

  1. Download the latest version of Standard ERP that is correct for your platform and operating system (i.e. the Linux Command Line version).

  2. Open a Terminal window using the Terminal icon in the Dock or Panel.

  3. Type the following, remembering that the Terminal environment on Linux is case-sensitive:

    cp /Users/username/Desktop/standarderp.server.tgz /Applications
    Copies the installer file (named standarderp.server.tgz in this example) from the desktop to the "Applications" directory.

    cd /Applications/
    Makes the "Applications" directory the current directory.

    tar -xvzf standarderp.server.tgz
    Expands the standarderp.server.tgz installer file. A new directory will be created in your "Applications" directory. This new directory will be named "StandardERPServer", and will contain the application and the necessary auxiliary files.

    rm standarderp.server.tgz
    Deletes the installer file.
Having successfully installed Standard ERP, follow these steps to create the new database and carry out the basic configuration that is needed to get started:
