PR System Software Requirements

Server Side

• J2EE server - we use...
  • Tomcat 3.3 with JDK 1.5 or later, but should work with others
  • Apache 1.3 server with webapp or mod_jk connection, but should work with others
  • RHEL or Solaris 8 or later, but should work on other platforms including Windows
• SQL based database with JDBC 2.0 driver - we have used...
  • Sybase ASE 11 and later
  • Oracle 9i and later
  • Microsoft SQLServer 2000
  • IBM DB2
  • MySQL 4.1.11
    4.1.10 has a bug where the log is not flushed after a transaction and results in a database error that then hangs the system connection. Also 3 other problems have been identified so far with 4.1.11 or the administrator but are minor and have been reported.

Client Side

• HTML 3.2 or later, Netscape, IE, etc.
• XHTML 1.0 complient
• JavaScript
  This is used on the front page to keep it smaller. We may support another version without javascript that will be about 50% larger.
