TWiki System Requirements

Line: 12 to 12

TWiki is written in Perl 5, uses a number of shell commands, and requires RCS (Revision Control System)

, a GNU Free Software package. TWiki is developed in a basic Linux/Apache environment. It also works with Microsoft Windows, and should have no problem on any other platform that meets the requirements.

Resource	Required Server Environment *

Changed:

Perl	5.005_03 or higher (5.6.1 recommended, 5.8.0 not recommended yet, see TWiki:Codev.IssuesWithPerl5dot8)
Non-standard Perl modules	• Unix: `Net::SMTP` (or `sendmail`) • Windows: `Net::SMTP`, `MIME::Base64`, `Digest::SHA1`

Perl	5.005_03 or higher (5.6.1 recommended, 5.8.x does work in most cases, but see TWiki:Codev.IssuesWithPerl5dot8)
Non-standard Perl modules	• Unix: `Net::SMTP` (or `sendmail`) • Windows: `Net::SMTP`, `MIME::Base64`, `Digest::SHA1` • Internationalisation: `Unicode::MapUTF8` (only for non-ISO-8859-1 sites using TWiki:Codev.EncodeURLsWithUTF8 with Perl 5.6 or lower)

RCS	5.7 or higher (including GNU `diff`) Optional, but the all-Perl RCS replacement is not currently recommended for live sites - see TWiki:Codev.RcsLite
GNU `diff`	GNU `diff` 2.7 or higher is required when not using the all-Perl RcsLite. Install on PATH if not included with RCS (check version with `diff -v`) Must be the version used by RCS, to avoid problems with binary attachments - RCS may have hard-coded path to `diff`
Other external programs	`fgrep, egrep`

Line: 41 to 41

- Plugins included in the TWiki distribution do not add requirements.
