Table of Contents
The following sections describe both the standard installation (see Section 2.2, “Standard Installation”) as well as the developer installation (see Section 2.3, “Developer Installation”.) Before proceeding with either installation you should ensure that you have read and understood the prerequisites (see Section 2.1, “Prerequisites”) for installing OLAT.
There is default configuration webapp/WEB-INF/src/serviceconfig/olat.properties.
This file that contains settings required to build and install OLAT.
Most of these settings you will not need to change though you may wish to review them anyway.
You can overwrite this default properties in olat.local.properties. OLAT searches for this file on the classpath.
In any case you need an empty olat.local.properties.
Windows users should note the (Java) practice of using forward slashes in directory paths (e.g., C:/TEMP
instead of C:\TEMP) when setting OLAT properties. In addition users of Mac OS/X should be aware that the the OS/X VM
implementation of Java may be installed on your system and that you will need to install the Sun Microsystems JVM
and set it as your default JVM.
If you run OLAT on a 64Bit System you may run into a known Java Virtual Machine bug which results in strange errors difficult to track down. Try adding an additional VM system variable (-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true) which disabled the IPv6 in favor of IPv4.
