The default installation of EPrints is on a stand-alone linux system, but this is not the only way EPrints can (and has) been installed.

The EPrints team currently recommends installing EPrints in one of the following ways:

Here are some other ways:

This category contains a range of other sets of instructions for different operating systems and versions of EPrints. Most of them are not supported but may still work. For free support and discussion about EPrints you can sign up to EP-Tech.

If you want to write installation instructions for a system other than those listed here please do so. Remember to tag the page with [[Category:Installation]] so that it appears in this list.

If you use one of the installation guides below and it doesn't work, edit the page to say what went wrong and how you fixed it. This will help others (and maybe yourself) tackle these problems in the future. Here you can register for an eprints.org account to edit the wiki.
