An automatic installation script is available for Linux and Mac. This script is interactive and will:

  • Create a user for Mango to run under (Linux only)

  • Create a H2 or MySQL database

  • Download and extract the Mango zip file to your chosen installation directory

  • Create a pre-configured env.properties file in overrides

  • Create a self-signed SSL/TLS certificate

  • Register a systemd service so Mango starts at boot (Linux only)

Requirements

  • Your operating system is Linux or Mac OS

  • Java JDK is installed and either

    • JAVA_HOME environment variable points to the JDK installation directory

    • The JDK bin directory is available on your path (specifically the java, keytool, and jar commands are available)

  • (MySQL only) The mysql command is available on the path and the root user can run SQL without a password

Instructions

You must run the script as root. If you have any reservations about doing so, please see our manual installation instructions for your operating system.
