Beginer: Steps installation for Free Pascal Compiler and Linux?

I have experience with Lazarus and firebird on Debian.

But on the web and on the mormot, I’m a total beginner

I would like to test a mormot sample.
I tried unsuccessfully.

I would be very grateful for your help.
I want to follow instructions steps, to friendly experienced programmers on this forum.

My Wishes and Questions:

Free Pascal Compiler?
Is it possible to linux based on debian?
Which version of linux do you recommend?
Which version of the web server?
What settings does the web server need for mormot?

Help is very welcome.
Thanks.

Kind regards from Slovenia.

Re: Beginer: Steps installation for Free Pascal Compiler and Linux?

Did you read the documentation about it?
https://synopse.info/files/html/Synopse … l#TITL_125

We mostly use Debian or Ubuntu, no difference.
My main PC has Ubuntu 20.04.01 LTS as main system, and I use it with Lazarus 2.1 daily.
The specific SVN revisions of FPC and Lazarus we currently use is in the doc.

Also read the FAQ

Re: Beginer: Steps installation for Free Pascal Compiler and Linux?

Rather use FPC 3.2 than the trunk (3.3.1).

No web server is needed for testing and development. There are several web servers embedded.
We recomment nginx as reverse proxy if you want to publish your server to the internet, and easily add HTTPS support with Let's Encrypt.

How to run TestSQL3?
./TestSQL3
in shell, in the folder where TestSQL3 was built...

Please follow the forum rules and don't pollute the posts with a lot of source code of stack traces.

I won't answer any question which don't follow the forum rules.

Just one hint: are you sure you used FPC 3.2 as documented? FPC 3.3.1/trunk can be pretty unstable.
