Standalone (for Windows)

Installing tinyPM Standalone

These instructions will lead you through the process of installing tinyPM Standalone on your Windows machine. The standalone installer (tinypm-2.x-install.exe) can be downloaded from http://www.tinypm.com/download

By default tinyPM standalone runs on HSQLDB, which should not be used as a production database. It is used for evaluation purposes only. If you want to start working on your real projects we highly recommend to switch to MySQL.

Installing JRE

To use tinyPM standalone you need to install JRE first (you can install or use JDK if you want but JRE is enough). You can downaload the latest version of Java JRE at http://www.java.com

After installing the JRE you need to setup %JRE_HOME% environment variable:

It’s also good to add %JRE_HOME%/bin to your %Path% variable to avoid problems with missing MSVCR71.dll:

Running tinyPM installer

When you are ready with JRE and variables, simply run tinyPM installer and follow the wizard which will guide you through the installation process.

Now all you have to do is run the “Start tinyPM” link from your “Start/Programs” menu and open the following link in the web browser:

http://localhost:8080

tinyPM logon screen should appear and you are ready to start!
Use:

  • username: admin
  • password: admin

Troubleshooting

1. After installing tinyPM Standalone it does not start. Nothing happens.
Make sure that you've setup JRE_HOME (if you use JRE) od JAVA_HOME if you use JDK.

2. I've installed tinyPM in C:\Program Files\tinyPM on Vista or Windows 7 and it crushes during start reporting bugs related to file permissions.
You will need to give the owner of the folder full control in permissions tab on Windows folder properties.
