DHIS 2.0 demo

This is a quick way to set up a demo (with demo data) of DHIS 2.0 locally. It uses a pre-built war file meaning you cannot do modifications like e.g. changing the database server. This demo uses the in-memory database server HSQLDB and the web server Jetty.

If you want to install DHIS 2 instead see installing DHIS 2.

Prepare your local system

Install the Java platform

Download Java(TM) Software Development Kit (SDK), Standard Edition from http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

JAVA_HOME has to be set and added to your $PATH (usually automatically done on Windows).

Install and prepare the servlet container and HTTP server (Jetty)

1. Download the latest Jetty version from:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=7322&package_id=106252

2. Unzip it to the desired installation directory (here <Jetty install folder> is used to refer to this folder).

Run the application

Download the latest demo war file from the download page} (e.g. dhis-2.0-M7.1-demo.war). Save the file to <Jetty install folder>/webapps
Run Jetty with DHIS 2.0
In <Jetty installation folder> type the following command:
```
$ java -jar start.jar
```
