2.2 Installing Kauri

2.2.1 Installing the Java JDK

If you have Java installed, you can skip this section.

Kauri is Java-based web application framework. To run it you need to install Sun Java version 5 or higher. To check which Java version you have installed, excute:

java -version

To download and install Java, please visit the Java download site.

If you want to develop Kauri applications, be sure to download the JDK, not just the JRE.

Set an environment variable JAVA_HOME pointing to your Java installation. You can again check everything is fine by executing:

Unix
$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -version

Windows
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java -version
