Nuxeo platform 6.0-HF20

Welcome to the Nuxeo Platform 6.0-HF20.

You can always download the latest releases of Nuxeo packages (distributions, installers, virtual machine images, ...) from http://www.nuxeo.com/downloads.
Previous releases are available at http://nuxeo.github.com/downloads.html.

Requirements

The applications based on the Nuxeo Platform need Java.
Please install and set up a Java Development Kit 7 or 8 (JDK 7 or 8, also called Java 1.7 and Java 1.8; JRE is not enough)* if it’s not already installed on your computer.
* We currently support Oracle's JDK and OpenJDK as a default Java setup. Don't hesitate to contact us if you need us to support a JDK from another vendor.

Even if not supported, we welcome your feedback if you encounter any trouble with earlier versions of the JDK.
Nuxeo won’t work with any previous release of Java (e.g. Java 6).

Under Windows, virus scan should be configured to avoid scanning Nuxeo’s installation folder. See lock problems leading to server errors.

Read the Hardware and Software Requirements for more information.

Getting Started

After you have installed the Nuxeo Platform, either follow the Quick configuration steps described on the online Installation and Administration Guide or the instructions below:

1. Go to your installation directory.
2. Start the server:
   • under Linux/Unix/MacOS, run ./bin/nuxeoctl start to use only the terminal or ./bin/nuxeoctl gui start to display the Control Panel (run ./bin/nuxeoctl help for list of available commands).
   • under Windows, run bin\nuxeoctl.bat (the Control Panel is displayed by default, use --gui=false option for terminal only).
   • you can also use a Debian or Windows service.
3. Point your browser to http://localhost:8080/nuxeo/.
4. Configure your server using the displayed Startup Wizard.
5. Select the modules you want to install on the Platform (a lot of other modules are available in the Update Center and on the Nuxeo Marketplace).
6. When the server is restarted, log in using the “Administrator” login and the “Administrator” password (no quotes, of course, but capital “A”).

For complete setup and configuration, you should refer to the Setup pages of the Installation and Administration Guide.

About Nuxeo

Nuxeo provides an Open Source Content Management Platform enabling architects and developers to easily build, deploy, and run content-centric business applications. In the cloud or on premise, Nuxeo’s Enterprise Content Management (ECM) technology offers an integrated solution for Document Management, Digital Asset Management, Case Management and much more. Built on a modern, Java-based architecture, the Nuxeo Platform is architected for modularity and extensibility, unlike traditional ECM solutions. This means that your content-centric application aligns with your business and technical needs and easily integrates into your IT infrastructure, all in a highly sustainable way.

The Nuxeo Platform is a robust, extensible, global content management platform available as Open Source Software (OSS). Nuxeo imagined, developed and is releasing its platform, helped by a vibrant community of professional and individual contributors:

• Capture: With the Nuxeo Platform, you can create your documents using your day-to-day favorite tools (MS Office, Mail, etc.) or you can batch import your exiting documents (drag and drop, form and import, email capture).
• Share & Collaborate: Save time by finding the right information when you need it! Empower your co-workers to share, access, enrich and store high quality content in a single place. The Nuxeo Platform can manage all of your organization’s documents and IP assets in a scalable and secured document repository. Create and enrich documents within collaborative workspaces, follow their validation process via customizable workflows, publish in one or any hierarchy you chose. Join our existing customers, take all the benefits from our collaborative and open source content management platform.
• Process & Review: Customize your documents life cycle, quickly adapt workflows to reflect internal procedures and to meet your legal compliancy requirements. The Nuxeo Platform can handle the way you work!
• Publish & Archive: Keep track of any and all changes that have happened within the document repository. The Nuxeo Platform allows you to publish the validated documents you have created to a larger audience, and the audit trail offers the legal compliance that your organization requires.
• Search & Find: With the Nuxeo Platform search features, you can easily find your documents through their content or their metadata. Save time: you can save and reuse your most frequent queries.
