Omeka is now supported by JumpBox, a service that simplifies the process of installing open source software. JumpBox gives you the option to run a virtual machine locally on your Windows/Mac/Linux personal computer, or to purchase website hosting that includes Omeka already installed.

If you’re interested in learning more about how to use Omeka with Jumpbox, check out this informative screencast created by Sean Tierney of Jumpbox, or go ahead and download the Omeka 1.1 Jumpbox.

We’re excited to be working with Jumpbox, which is part of our larger effort to provide one-click installs of Omeka. We encourage you to contact your web host and ask for Omeka support.

    The install on Amazon EC was easy enough. What I didn’t get right away was how to install additional plugins. You copy the extracted downloads via SSH (which you need to enable in the admin console) to var/data/omeka. FYI

    This is an essential thing to know about JumpBox if you want to access MySQL on the virtual machine…
