<title>Apache James Server 3 - Installation</title>
</properties>
<body>
<section name="Requirements">
<subsection name="Java Virtual Machine">
<p>James 3.8.0 requires a Java Runtime Environment. Java version 11 is required to run the
James application. The exact JREs available depends on the platform. In addition, the environment variable JAVA_HOME should be set to
the JRE home directory before running James.</p>
<p>James 3.8.0 has been successfully tested on OpenJDK 11</p>
</subsection>
<subsection name="User Privileges">
<p>On Linux/Unix platforms, root access will be required to run James (access to ports
below 1024 is generally restricted to the root user). As SMTP, POP3, and IMAP4
need to open server sockets on such ports in standard configurations,
James requires root access.</p>
<p>On Windows platforms, you also need to run James as Administrator privilege.</p>
</subsection>
<subsection name="Libc6">
<p>On Linux, to run the startup/shutdown script via the 'james' command, you also need <code>libc6</code>
(on Ubuntu for example: <code>sudo apt-get install libc6-i386 libc6-dev-i386</code>).</p>
</subsection>
<subsection name="System Resources">
<p>Obviously James also requires sufficient disk space, processor power, and network bandwidth. But,
other than what's been discussed here, it has no additional special requirements.</p>
<p>James is configured to run with 512 MB RAM (-Xmx512M in the bat/sh) available, but may need more or
less depending on the load. With the default configuration, JVM can use until 512M (It does not mean it will do).
It really depends on your traffic, and also which mailbox you will use (you can save much memory
if you don't use the default embedded derby database but an external database of your choice).
Work is still done to minimize the needed memory.
</p>

</section>
<section name="Build instructions">
<p>Checkout code from the chosen version on <a href="https://github.com/apache/james-project/tree/james-project-3.8.0">
GitHub</a>. Follow <a href="https://github.com/apache/james-project/blob/james-project-3.8.0/README.adoc">README instructions</a> about compilation.</p>
<ul>Using these instructions, you can build the following images:
<li>Guice + JPA + Lucene</li>
<li>Guice + Cassandra + OpenSearch</li>
<li>Guice + Cassandra + OpenSearch + LDAP</li>
<li>Spring</li>
</ul>
<p>Alternatively, if you don't want your build to be handled via Docker, you can follow <a href="quick-start-cassandra.html">
Guice Cassandra quick-start</a> </p>
<p>Note that install instructions from command line are available for <a href="install/cassandra-guice.html">Cassandra-Guice</a>,
<a href="install/jpa-guice.html">JPA-Guice</a> and <a href="install/jpa-smtp-guice.html">JPA-SMTP-Guice</a>.
</p>
<p>A <a href="https://github.com/apache/james-project/blob/master/server/apps/distributed-app/docker-compose.yml">
docker-compose</a> is available for Guice + Cassandra + OpenSearch + RabbitMQ</p>
</section>
<section name="Install Step by Step">
This guide documents how to install a Spring flavoured JAMES server.
<subsection name="Step 1: Download James">
<p>Obtain the full James binary (or source) distribution from
the <a href="http://james.apache.org/download.cgi">James
release mirrors</a>.</p>
<p>If you have downloaded a binary distribution, you do not need to build James.
Proceed directly to Step 2.</p>
<p>If you have downloaded a source package, process first to
the <a href="dev-build.html">build</a> and come back to Step 2.</p>
</subsection>
<subsection name="Step 2: Deploy James">
<p>Unpack the archive into your James installation directory.</p>
</subsection>
<subsection name="Step 3: Configure James">
<!--
<div class="ui-widget">
<div class="ui-state-error ui-corner-all" style="padding: 0 .7em;">
<p><span class="ui-icon ui-icon-alert" style="float: left; margin-right: .3em;"></span>
<strong>Preliminary step for JMX on Windows: </strong>
to let windows start with JMX username/password enabled,
you need to modify the security settings for the JMX files (./conf/jmx.password and ./conf/jmx.access)
like described here:
<a href="http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/guide/management/security-windows.html">
http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/guide/management/security-windows.html</a>
</p>
</div>
</div>
-->
<p>After unpacking the binary, the next step is to adjust the initial configuration.
All configuration files are embedded in jars. We ship in the conf folder the configuration files that can be edited to match your needs.
</p>
<p>Additional system files reside under the./conf/META-INF folder.</p>
<p>The out of the box configuration makes certain assumptions and has some default
values that are unlikely to be appropriate for real-world servers.
There are a few issues that should be addressed immediately upon installation:</p>
<ul>
<li>Postmaster Address - Change according to your need - <a href="config-system.html">read more</a>.</li>
<li>Most UNIX systems require superuser privileges to open sockets below 1024,
which includes the IANA-standard SMTP (on port 25), POP3 (on port 110) and IMAP4 (on port 143).
These default ports can be changed in the conf file
(read for <a href="config-pop3.html">pop3</a>, <a href="config-smtp-lmtp.html">smtp</a>
and <a href="config-imap4.html">imap4</a>. Obviously, you
would then need to reconfigure your clients. This may not be an option if
you want to receive mail from external mail servers.</li>
</ul>
<p>In addition to adjusting these parameters, you may wish to consult the documentation for a discussion of
all other configurations. A list of such configurations, as well as the steps necessary to configure them, can
be found <a href="config.html">here</a>.</p>
</subsection>
<subsection name="Step 4: Start James">
<p>Go to the bin subdirectory of the installation directory and run <code>$ ./james start</code>.</p>
<p>Running <code>$ ./james help</code> help will provide the list of commands you can invoke. </p>
<p>Once started, you'll see in the log file (./log/wrapper.log) that
James is running. This means that Spring has loaded James and is now waiting for a request.</p>
</subsection>
<subsection name="Step 5: Create Domains and Users">
<p>Finally, after launch, it will be necessary to create domain and user accounts
before the James server will be fully operational. Read instructions on creating
<a href="manage-domains.html">domains</a> and <a href="manage-users.html">user accounts</a>.</p>
<p>Since at the beginning James is empty, it will not have any domain (except the default one)nor local users
registered.</p>
<p>To register a local domain and user, cd bin and type james-cli.sh.
Follow the given instructions</p>
<p>Invoke "james-cli.sh adddomain &lt;mydomain.tls&gt; &lt;mydomain.tls&gt; is the domain name
of the domain you wish to create.</p>
<p>Invoke "james-cli.sh adduser &lt;user&gt; &lt;password&gt;" where &lt;user&gt; is the user name
and &lt;password&gt; is the password of the account you wish to create.</p>
<p>Please note that the user name MUST be a complete email address of the form &lt;user&gt;@&lt;domain&gt;
(where &lt;domain&gt; is any of the values specified in the &lt;servernames&gt; block of XMLDomainList or
a domain defined via the <a href="manage-domains.html">domain management</a>).</p>
</subsection>
<subsection name="Step 6: Test James">
<p>Once you have some local users registered, try sending mail to one of them
with SMTP (port 25).</p>
<source>
