LAMS 2.4 has been tested with Debian 6 and Ubuntu 10.04, 12.04 and 12.10 servers (32 and 64 bits).
You can download the deb packages using the links below, or add the following line to your /etc/apt/sources.list file (the trailing slash is required):
deb http://downloads.lamsinternational.com/debian web/
The script needs to be run with sudo privileges. Follow the on-screen prompts and you will be up and running within minutes!
Once you've installed LAMS, start it as root using
/etc/init.d/lams start
This starts up the JBoss server which is located in /usr/share/jboss-4.0.2.
Logs should start appearing in /usr/share/jboss-4.0.2/server/default/logs
After about a minute it should be accessible from a browser:
http://localhost:8080/lams
Login with sysadmin:sysadmin
LAMS 2.4 for Unix and Linux

Version 2.3.5 is a patch upgrade from 2.3.4. If you want to update to 2.3.5 from a previous release, make sure you are currently running LAMS 2.3.4 already. If you are running a version prior to LAMS 2.3.4, then download the appropriate patch(es) and install them.
Patch: lams-unix-updater-2.3.5.tar.gz (~35 MB) Released 28 December 2010
Updater: lams-unix-updater-2.1.tar.gz (~34 MB) Released 30 June 2008
In order to run this upgrader you must have LAMS2.0.3 or LAMS2.0.4 installed.
We've made a small improvement to the upgrader we originally released on 20 June 2008. Nothing in LAMS has changed - just a small tweak to the installer.
We initially did a 2.0.3 installer but found a problem with the Windows installer before it was announced. To try to make life simpler, we have dropped the 2.0.3 installer and gone straight to 2.0.4 for Unix, Linux and Macintosh.
If you have installed 2.0.3 then continue running 2.0.3. The 2.1 upgrader will support upgrading from 2.0.3 and 2.0.4. There is no difference between 2.0.4 on Unix/Linux/Mac except for the version numbers.
From LAMS 2.1, we have moved the Flash source files, using for building the Flash clients, to a separate project. If you just want to build LAMS, write your own tool or have a look at the Java source, only download the LAMS 2.x Java Source zipfile. You do not need the Flash source to build LAMS. Only download the Flash source if you want to look at the ActionScript used to create the Flash clients.
You can now make use of an excellent Video Recording tool in LAMS. In order to use this tool, you will need to install a Red5 streaming server. Red5 is an open source project that you can download for free! Follow these set up and installation instructions.
Skype Plugin for FCKEditor in LAMS
Now included in LAMSv2.4.1 This feature is now included in version 2.4.1. For previous versions, please read the instructions below.
All of these language packs are out of date. If you have installed LAMS 2.0 only (using the manual installer) then you should apply the 2007-02-09 language pack. If you have installed anything newer, do NOT apply these language packs.
