There are different versions of Odysseus for different operating systems. Odysseus consists of two parts:

Odysseus Server - The Core

The server provides the actual system, and thus the processing mechanisms, the query interface or the user management. Accordingly, this part is essential for the execution of Odysseus.

Odysseus Studio - The User Interface

For the development of queries and for the administration of Odysseus Server, Odysseus Studio was developed. The graphical user interface provides support for the development, while it can be also used as a basis for the development of new applications.

We recommend to use the combined version of Odysseus Server + Odysseus Studio!

The products are available as “master builds” that are defined at irregular intervals and represent stable versions (based on the source code in the master branch).

For those who want to use the latest version of Odysseus, a “development build” can be used that is created with every code change in the development branch.

A detailed installation guide can be found here: How to install Odysseus

The default user is “System”, the password is “manager” and the tenant can be left empty.

There are currently some problems with other clients than windows … If you have problems with clients: As an alternative WebStudio could be used (https://wiki.odysseus.informatik.uni-oldenburg.de/display/ODYSSEUS/WebStudio)

Important: For MacOS see remarks in installation guide

For Developers

Developers can obtain our source code. This is provided via GIT. As a development environment, we recommend Eclipse for RCP and RAP Developers.For more information and detailed instructions on how to set up the environment can be found here:

Development with Odysseus

Install Updates

Updates can be easily installed by two clicks in Odysseus Studio.

For a detailed instruction have a look here: How to update Odysseus

Install New Plugins

Odysseus can be extended by various plugins. Using Odysseus Studio, they can be obtained through a GUI from the update site.

Here is a detailed guide: How to install new features

Tipp: Because Odysseus is based on Eclipse and OSGi, additional plug-ins can be installed. For example, you may install the Subversion plugin to keep Odysseus projects directly under version control.
