  41. <h1>Chamilo - Server Dependencies</h1>
  42. <h2>Introduction</h2>
  43. <p>In the ever-evoluting web environment, Chamilo has to rely on
  44. state-of-the-art third-party software in order to provide you with useful and
  45. practical features. Some of this third-party software usually come bundled with
  46. your operating system, but some don't. This means that if that software is
  47. not installed on your Chamilo server, along with Chamilo, you might not enjoy
  48. the best possible experience with your Chamilo platform. To avoid this problem,
  49. most of the sofware we used is bundled into a typical Chamilo installation.</p>
  50. <p>
  51. However, if such a third-party software is too big to be included, or if it
  52. doesn't make sense to include it for whatever reason, you must make sure it is
  53. installed on your system. This is the goal of this list: to help you keep a
  54. track of what software is needed and, as much as possible, where to get the
  55. required information to install it.</p>

  104. <h2>Extra features dependencies - server-side</h2>
  105. Chamilo LMS is a very complex software suite, and some of its components wil
  106. only work when some specific server-side libraries are installed. The names of
  107. the libraries below are taken from a Debian/Ubuntu installation, so you might
  108. need to adapt these if you are installing on Windows, Mac or another Linux
  109. distribution.<br />
  110. Please note that, as for the rest of free software, we are NOT giving or
  111. implying any warranty of any kind that this will work on your system, even on
  112. the intended Debian/Ubuntu systems. You should take your own precautions to
  113. ensure all components are installed by an expert in the field.<br />
