  • Check with erlang:system_info(otp_release).

Build Chicago Boss with make.

• On Windows Vista or Windows 7 -

  1. you need install win openSSl (http://www.slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html)
  2. make mochiweb with msys or cygwin

When you're ready to rock and roll, run ./START-DEV.SH (or start-dev.bat) in this directory (admin priveleges needed). There will be a lot of PROGRESS REPORTs which look scary but hopefully everything is running smoothly. With this console you can interact directly with the running server. Next, point your browser to:

http://localhost:8001/

If all is well you will see "Hello, World!" Now you can get busy.
