DHIS 2 installation on Laptop

Hi,

Is there a manual for installing DHIS 2 on windows 11 for DHIS 2 version 2.40.2.1? The information I have found about DHIS 2 installation in windows seems old. Or if there is a step-by-step cheat sheet, please share.

Thanks

Hi @hernandezmachava

If this is not for production purposes (i.e. in a laptop). I strongly recommend to check out the Docker option: How to spin up a DHIS2 local instance | DHIS2 Developer Portal

Please post back with how it goes. Thanks!

Hi @Gassim,

I have windows 11 as the operating system on my laptop. I want to install DHIS 2 for learning purposes. On online Demo, things get cleaned every 24 hours and for the learning I think it is difficult. The commands I see in the link above are not for LINUX?

Thanks

Dear @hernandezmachava

For your learning purposes, I recommend installing DHIS2 using Docker on your Windows 11 laptop. This approach will allow you to practice without the limitations of the online demo.

Here’s a brief guide:

  1. Install Docker: Follow the instructions here: Docker Installation for Windows.
  2. Set Up DHIS2: You can get the DHIS2 setup from GitHub: DHIS2 Core on GitHub.

If you need any assistance with the setup, feel free to direct message me.
