Last modified by Thomas Mortagne on 2023/08/14 15:30

  This VM is not very well maintained anymore (too much work) so you most probably are going to end up with something too old to be usefull.

A VirtualBox image containing Ubuntu and Eclipse pre configured for XWiki (core and contrib) development.

Download on http://download.xwiki.org/dev/vm/Ubuntu-Eclipse.vdi.7z. An ova version of the VM is also provided in case you can't make VirtualBox work for some reason and want to try another software (like VMWare).

The user id is xwiki-contrib and the password xwiki.
