Minimum configuration and prerequisites for Squash TM on a virtual or physical server

May 2021 article: these prerequisites are out of date. For the requirements of the current SquashTM version, see System Requirements and Prerequisites in the documentation.

System requirements:

Table: required configuration (mono-core, 1 GB RAM, 100 MB disk, IE 11+, Firefox ESR, Chrome 13+) and recommended (bi-core, 2 GB, 5 GB, Linux, Firefox or Chrome)

Prerequisites:

  • Operating system: system able to run JVM

Table: recommended versions per system (Debian Buster 10+, CentOS/Red Hat 7+, other Linux kernel 3.10+, Windows Server 2012) and installation modes

  • Java execution environment: JRE 8 or JRE 11. Java 11 is not compatible with the SAML plugin. JDK 8 and 11 are compatible and supported with Squash TM. A Hotspot JVM is recommended, OpenJ9 can work in some cases but is not officially supported (from Squash TM 1.17, it is MANDATORY to use Java 8, Java 7 is not supported anymore).
  • Application Server: none (Squash TM embeds its own application server: Tomcat)
  • Database: MariaDB 10.5, PostGreSQL 9.6+ (Squash TM is delivered with an embedded database (H2) usable for evaluation purposes. We do not recommend its use in a production context)
  • Recommended components:
  • Debian Buster
  • MariaDB 10.5
  • Mantis 2.18.x+, Jira 7 (commercial REST plugin)
  • Apache (web front-end)
