You can install OpenKM in Ubuntu 16.10 without major problems. I suggest watch our video at https://www.openkm.com/en/download.html the installaer does everything for you.

Also you can take a look in our documentation where is explained all the manual steps ( from there you can use some steps like installing Mariadb or MySQL and also installing the latest JAVA JDK 1.8 Oracle from the repositories, you do not need much else )

Many thanks for the reply. It can be installed at the server version? Am getting a command not found when trying to run the sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java command

Install the application with
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties

You might continue with steps what are shown in the video, execute the OKMInstaller.jar what does everything for you.

many thanks(again) for your reply. Can uou explain why the udo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java command isnt working and what the sudo apt-get install python-software-properties command is doing different? Also, i dont see a repository code for the installer. Its a server Ubuntu version so i cant download the installer the regular way.

AS you indicated you get an error "Am getting a command not found when trying to run the sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java command" what is solved installing the application needed "sudo apt-get install python-software-properties", from this point you will be able to execute "add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java "

Then you will be able to install java support in your server
Code: Select all
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer
Finally download the OKMInstaller.jar from our download section ( I suspect you have not watched the video we have there, otherwise I'm not able to understanding why you are not able to follow so few steps ? https://www.openkm.com/en/download.html ) and execute it.
Code: Select all
java -jar OKMInstaller.jar
Follow the steps shown here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJrkD2BdAJo

The python software module is up to date but when running the add app ppa:webupd8team, i again get the command not found error.

This is an OS issue, not an OpenKM one. I suggest looking for it in google "ubuntu 17.1 error add-apt-repository" and sure you will find a lot of users with same issue ( is exactly the same I have done to give you the previous answer ).
