# Installation Mifos Platform
This file describes how to install mifos platform for use in a production or test environment.
The two ways to get up and running with mifos platform is:
1. Use Amazon AWS and mifosplatform public AMI to spin up a new instance in the cloud
2. Manually install the prerequisite software on your own machine, follow setup instructions and use release artifacts to get platform running yourself.
## 1. Amazon Public AMI
Launch instance <a target="_blank" href="https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/home?region=eu-west-1#launchAmi=ami-65e6e011" title="Mifos X Public AMI 1">ami-65e6e011</a>
- Mifos X Public AMI 1
- Ubuntu11.10, tomcat7.0.21 (with SSL),MySql 5.1.62, Java 1.6_30, Mifos X Platform
## 2. Manual Installation
### 2.1 Prerequisite Software
Before running mifos platform you must have the following software installed:
- Oracle Java - JDK/JRE 1.6 (NOT 1.7) (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html)
- Oracle MySQL - (http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/)
- Apache Tomcat 7 - (http://tomcat.apache.org/download-70.cgi)
### 2.2 MySQL Setup
Assumption: MySQL server is now installed.
You should know your password for MySQL root user. If you wish you can change it by doing:
```
mysqladmin -u root -p 'oldpassword' password newpassword
```
The mifosplatform settings default to a mysql root user with username: root, password: mysql
If you have never installed mifosplatform before follow section 2.2.1 for first time setup of database, otherwise read section 2.2.2 on database upgrades.
#### 2.2.1 First Time Database setup
Mifos platform has support for hosting multiple tenants so we use two database schemas:
- *mifosplatform-tenants*: which is responsible for persisting the tenant information which is used when deciding what schema each incoming request in the platform should route to. It acts as a registry which contains the details of all the tenant databases, and their connection information, which is used by MifosX to connect to the appropriate tenant.
- *mifostenant-default*: All tenant specific schemas follow the pattern mifostenant-xxxx, out of the box the default schema is used.
Step one: create mifosplatform-tenants database
```
mysql -uroot -pmysql
create database `mifosplatform-tenants`;
exit
```
Step two:
### 2.3 Tomcat 7 Setup
### 2.4 Release Artifacts
