Option 1 — Windows

DataPallas Server installs on Windows the same way as DataPallas Desktop. The installation steps are identical — download, extract, and run.

Prerequisites

• Java 17 or higher — on Windows, DataPallas.exe automatically checks for Java when you launch it. If Java is missing, the application will guide you through the installation. See the QuickStart in 5 Minutes guide for the full walkthrough with screenshots.

Steps

1. Download the latest version: DataPallas-server.zip

2. Extract the zip file to your preferred location Example: C:/DataPallas-Server (Tip: use a simple path like C:/DataPallas-Server instead of C:/Program Files/DataPallas-Server for easier access)

3. Start the server by running startServer.bat

4. Access the web interface at http://localhost:9090

Windows Service

DataPallas Server can be configured as a Windows service so it starts automatically with the operating system and runs in the background. For details, see the Scheduling & Automation page.

Option 2 — Self-Host with Docker (Windows, Linux, macOS)

DataPallas Server can be self-hosted using Docker on any platform — Windows, Linux, or macOS. Docker packages the server together with all its dependencies, so no Java installation is needed.

For full setup instructions, see the Self-Host with Docker guide.
