Supported Databases

Below are the minimum database versions required.

  • Oracle 9i
  • Microsoft SQL Server 2005

Installation Prerequisites

  • Java Runtime Environment 1.6 - The JRE must contain a server hotspot compiler, the 64bit JRE seems to have this, however, for 32bit you will need to install the JDK and specify the JRE that is installed within the JDK folder. You can check if a JRE has a server hotspot by going into the bin folder and checking if it has a 'server' folder.
  • Database JDBC Driver - The JDBC jar file for your chosen database is required prior to installation as it is placed into the correct locations by the installer and used for schema creation.
  • Database with credentials - An empty database with correct character set and collation along with user credentials suitable to create the schema and perform standard INSERT, UPDATE, SELECT and DELETE statements.
