* The '''MySQL RDS version 8''' certification with the AgileApps version 10.16 is still '''in progress'''.
* The primary difference between MySQL v8 on-premises and MySQL v8 RDS is the restricted access to the parameters on RDS, which requires certain additional configuration steps to complete the setup and data migration.
* The deprecated ASC or DESC qualifiers for GROUP BY clauses are removed. This impacts the custom SQL used in the application and results in a database syntax error. It is recommended that the application designer reviews the custom SQL used in the application to adopt MYSQL 8.

  • Download jta.jar here

Required for Basic Platform Functionality

Mail Server
Mail Server Configuration
  • Choose any postfix, sendmail or so on.
  • Run the mail server on TCP Port 25
    The mail server should always be up and running for the platform functionality to work as expected
  • Test and verify the Mail Server MTA (Mail Transfer Agent) with the following command:
echo "test mail" | mail -s "hello" admin-name@myserviceproviderdomain.com

An email message should be received at the specified address. If the confirmation message does not arrive, check the mail log to discover the cause.

Cache
Memcached 1.4.10 for caching
Memcached requires installation of libevent library version 2.0.16 (An event notification library) for your Operating System. It can be downloaded from http://www.monkey.org/~provos/libevent/. For more information, see Configuring memcached.
Ehcache for caching

Ehcache is available in the Common Tomcat profile. For more information, see Configuring Ehcache.

Web Server
Apache HTTP server 2.2.21 (Optional, but recommended)

The Apache web server can be placed in front of the Tomcat appserver to deliver static content more efficiently.
It is recommended for systems with large numbers of Static Resources and Documents
The following modules must be compiled into Apache during installation:

  • mod_proxy
  • mod_ssl
  • mod_expires
  • mod_headers

For more information, see Installing and Configuring Apache for Use with the Platform.

Java

The installation and operation of the AgileApps Cloud platform requires Java 8. However, the custom code in Java Class continues to be validated against Java 6 syntax as the instrumentation engine responsible for monitoring resource utilization works only on Java 6 byte codes.

Browser Support
Application excluding Process
  • Internet Explorer 11
  • Microsoft Edge
  • Firefox 32 (Minimum requirement)
  • Chrome 48.0.2564 (Minimum requirement)

  • Chrome 48.0.2564 (Minimum requirement)

As part of the security processes, the Remember me on this computer option is removed from the browser's login page.

Important:
To edit a Process Model, use Firefox or Chrome. Other browsers may work poorly, or not all.
Accessibility Mode requires Firefox

Required for Additional Functionality

OpenOffice (optional)
OpenOffice 3.2.0 or higher
soffice -headless -accept="socket,host=127.0.0.1,port=8100;urp;" -nofirststartwizard

Notepad.png

Note: If you have a problem with glibc library version incompatibility while installing OpenOffice 3.4.x (for RedHat with version 5.6 and lower), you should download and install OpenOffice 3.20
