<P>To install OpenEJB, simply <A href="downloads.html" title="Downloads">download the latest binary</A> and unpack your zip or tar.gz into the directory where you want OpenEJB to live.</P>
<P>Windows users can download the zip and unpack it with the WinZip program.</P>
<P>Linux users can download the tar.gz and unpack it with the following command:</P>
<P><TT>tar xzvf openejb-3.0.tar.gz</TT></P>
<P>Congratulations, you've installed OpenEJB.</P>
<P>If you've unpacked OpenEJB into the directory C:\openejb-3.0, for example, then this directory is your OPENEJB_HOME directory. The OPENEJB_HOME directory is referred to in various parts of the documentation, so it's good to remember where it is.</P>
<H1><A name="Quickstart-UsingOpenEJB"></A>Using OpenEJB</H1>
<P>Now all you need to do is move to the bin directory in OPENEJB_HOME, the directory where OpenEJB was unpacked, and type:</P>
<P><TT>openejb</TT></P>
<P>For Windows users, that looks like this:</P>
<P><TT>C:\openejb-3.0&gt; bin\openejb</TT></P>
<P>For UNIX/Linux/Mac OS X users, that looks like this:</P>
<P><TT><SPAN class="error">&#91;user@host openejb-3.0&#93;</SPAN># ./bin/openejb</TT></P>
<P>You really only need to know two commands to use OpenEJB, <A href="../OPENEJBx30/deploy-tool.html" title="Deploy Tool">deploy</A> and <A href="../OPENEJBx30/startup.html" title="Startup">start</A>. Both are completely documented and have examples.</P>
<P>For help information and command options, try this:</P>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>openejb deploy --help<BR>
openejb start --help</P></BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>For examples on using the start command and options, try this:</P>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>openejb start --examples</P></BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>That's it!</P>
<P>If you don't have any EJBs or clients to run, try the ubiquitous <A href="../OPENEJBx30/hello-world.html" title="Hello World">Hello World</A> example.</P>
<H1><A name="Quickstart-Jointhemailinglist"></A>Join the mailing list</H1>
<P>The OpenEJB User list is where the general OpenEJB community goes to ask questions, make suggestions, chat with other users, and keep a finger on the pulse of the project. More information about the user list and dev list can be found <A href="mailing-lists.html" title="Mailing Lists">here</A> </P>
