A powerful open source website content management system. OpenCms is built in Java and XML from open source components. OpenCms provides compelling features especially suited for large Internet or Intranet websites. If you want to try out OpenCms, the easiest option is to use our OpenCms Live Demo server. The live demo provides a personal OpenCms installation exclusively for you. All you need to do is register with a valid email address. We will not use the data you provide for anything else than setting up your personal demo installation! The OpenCms Documentation Central is the portal to all documentation regarding OpenCms related technology. OpenCms requires a Java Servlet 4.0 compatible web container. We have tested this release using Jetty and Tomcat. It works "out of the box" with Jetty 12 or Tomcat 9. Others have reported deploying OpenCms successfully on other web servlet containers like WildFly, GlassFish, WebLogic, WebSphere and Resin. On the database side, we provide support for MySQL, MariaDB, Oracle, PostgreSQL, MS SQL Server, DB2 and HSQLDB. The easiest way to install OpenCms is to use our official docker image. See alkacon/opencms-docker on Docker hub for full information about running the OpenCms docker image. You can install OpenCms "from scratch" manually on your server as well. See the OpenCms installation guide for full information about manually installing OpenCms. Please report issues and submit feature requests using our GitHub OpenCms issue tracker. Contributions to the OpenCms core development are most welcome. Please send us your pull requests directly on GitHub.. Please report security issues in OpenCms using the security issue report form on the Alkacon website.
