![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Next: Running the Installer Up: Installation Guide Previous: Installation Guide   Contents System RequirementsIn order to install and run CLNews, you must already have Sun Microsystems Java Developer's Kit (JDK) or Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1.1.8 or higher installed on your system. For Solaris and Linux installation, the CLNews installation programs require a graphical interface to operate so Solaris and Linux systems must have X Windows installed in order to install CoffeeLink News Server. While CLNews is intended to run correctly on any platform supporting a Java Virtual Machine (JVM), Burton Computer Corporation only provides support for a limited number of platform and JVM combinations. CLNews probably runs correctly on other operating systems and JVMs. But BCC has not tested every conceivable combination. The supported combinations are those that BCC has tested for correct operation.
Solaris 2.6 (both SPARC and x86) includes a JRE preinstalled in the /usr/java or /usr/java1.2 directory. This JRE supports native threads and a high performance JIT compiler. BCC recommends Solaris 2.6 for maximum reliability and throughput. The IBM JRE for Windows NT and Linux have been tested and found to offer excellent performance and reliability with CoffeeLink News Server.
