This procedure explains how to download and install the source distribution on a Windows system. Note: ServiceMix can be run on a Java 1.4.x system, however, Java 5 is required to compile/build ServiceMix.

1. From a browser, navigate to www.servicemix.org.
2. Click the "Download" link in the navigation pane (the left pane).
3. Click the "ServiceMix 1.x Release" link under the "Latest Releases" section.

   Build ServiceMix using Maven 1.0.2 or greater and Java 5.

   Code Block
   The recommended method of building ServiceMix is the following: cd [servicemix_install_dir] where [servicemix_install_dir] is the directory in which ServiceMix was installed. maven clean test If the above build fails on some tests, type the following: cd [servicemix_install_dir] maven m:clean maven -Dmaven.test.skip=true

7. Start ServiceMix from the target directory:

   Code Block
   cd [servicemix_install_dir]\target\servicemix-1.x\bin\servicemix-1.x\bin servicemix

8. Proceed to #Testing the Installation section.

This procedure explains how to download and install the source distribution on a Unix system. This procedure assumes the Unix machine has a browser. Please see the previous section #Unix Binary Installation for ideas on how to install ServiceMix without a browser. Note: ServiceMix can be run on a Java 1.4.x system, however, Java 5 is required to compile/build ServiceMix.

1. From a browser, navigate to www.servicemix.org.
2. Click the "Download" link in the navigation pane (the left pane).
3. Click the "ServiceMix 1.x Release" link under the "Latest Releases" section.
4. Under the "Download Here" section, select the desired distribution (if necessary, scroll down to see the "Download Here" section).
   For a source distribution the filename will be similar to: servicemix-x.x-src.tar.gz.
5. Extract the files from the zip file into a directory of your choice. For example:

   Code Block
   gunzip servicemix.x.x-src.tar.gz tar xvf servicemix.x-src.tar

6. Build ServiceMix using Maven 1.0.2 or greater and Java 5:

   Code Block
   The preferred method of building ServiceMix is the following: cd [servicemix_install_dir] where [servicemix_install_dir] is the directory in which ServiceMix was installed. maven clean test If the above build fails on some tests, do the following: cd [servicemix_install_dir] maven m:clean maven -Dmaven.test.skip=true

7. If the servicemix startup script is not executable, change it's permissions. For example:

   Code Block
   cd [servicemix_install_dir]/target/servicemix-1.x/bin/servicemix-1.x/bin chmod 755 servicemix

8. Start ServiceMix from the target directory:

   Code Block
   cd [servicemix_install_dir]/target/servicemix-1.x/bin/servicemix-1.x/bin servicemix

9. Proceed to #Testing the Installation section.

Unix Developer's Releases

This procedure explains how to download and install the latest developers' snapshot. Note: ServiceMix can be run on a Java 1.4.x system, however, Java 5 is required to compile/build ServiceMix.

1. From a browser, navigate to www.servicemix.org.
2. Click the Download link in the navigation pane (the left pane).
3. Click the "Development SNAPSHOT releases can also be found here" link.
4. Select the version of ServiceMix to download (you may have to scroll down to see the ServiceMix snapshots). The filename will be similar to: servicemix-x.x.x-tar.gz or servicemix-x.x.x-src.tar.gz.
5. Extract the files from the gzip file into a directory of your choice. For example:

   Code Block
   For a binary developer's snapshot: gunzip servicemix-x.x-x.tar.gz tar xvf servicemix-x.x.x.tar For a source developer's snapshot: gunzip servicemix-x.x.x-src.tar.gz tar xvf servicemix-x.x.x-src.tar

6. If a binary snapshot was downloaded the servicemix script may need its permissions changed to make it executable:

   Code Block
   cd [servicemix_install_dir]/bin where [servicemix_install_dir] is the directory in which ServiceMix was installed. chmod 755 servicemix

   For a binary snapshot proceed to the #Starting ServiceMix section of this document.
   If a source snapshot was downloaded perform steps 6 - 8 of the #Unix Source Installation procedure.
7. Proceed to #Testing the Installation section.
