You can try a demo with preinstalled eTraxis, powered by XAMPP. This demo doesn't require to be installed and ready to be used right out of a box. eTraxis, prepared in this demo, has sample project with one template. There are also 3 users there - marsellus, vincent, and jules - each of them has empty password. The marsellus account has full permissions on the project, while vincent and jules have only subset, usually granted to regular developers. You can play around with this project using enumerated accounts, or set up your own projects and templates as described in eTraxis documentation, using root account with empty password.

Below is information about how to start the demo.


Demo for Windows
  1. Download 'demo-windows-2.0.0.zip' (47.4 MB).
  2. Extract downloaded archive to root directory of any drive. This step will create 'xampplite' directory on the drive you selected (requires about 122 MB).
  3. Go to created 'xampplite' directory and execute 'xampp_start.exe'. You should see something like following (this example assumes you used drive 'C:', but doesn't mean you have to): 
    C:\xampplite> xampp_start.exe
Starting "xampp"...
"xampp" is started.
    At the first time you probably will get two message boxes from your Windows about unblocking Apache and MySQL - just let them be unblocked.
  4. That's it! Just type http://localhost/ in the address line of your browser to evaluate eTraxis.
  5. When you done, shutdown your XAMPP by 'xampp_stop.exe': 
    C:\xampplite> xampp_stop.exe
Stopping "xampp"...
"xampp" is stopped.
  6. When you get enough from the demo, feel free to remove whole 'xampplite' directory.

Demo for Linux
  1. Download 'demo-linux-2.0.0.tar.gz' (56.8 MB).
  2. Extract downloaded archive to '/opt' directory as superuser. This step will create '/opt/lampp' directory (requires about 177 MB). 
    $ sudo tar zxfv demo-linux-2.0.0.tar.gz -C /opt
  3. Start XAMPP as superuser by '/opt/lampp/lampp start' command. You should see something like following: 
    $ sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start
Starting XAMPP for Linux 1.7.1...
XAMPP: Starting Apache with SSL (and PHP5)...
XAMPP: Starting MySQL...
XAMPP for Linux started.
  4. That's it! Just type http://localhost/ in the address line of your browser to evaluate eTraxis.
  5. When you done, shutdown your XAMPP: 
    $ sudo /opt/lampp/lampp stop
Stopping XAMPP for Linux 1.7.1...
XAMPP: Stopping Apache with SSL...
XAMPP: Stopping MySQL...
XAMPP stopped.
  6. When you get enough from the demo, feel free to remove whole '/opt/lampp' directory: 
    $ sudo rm -f -r /opt/lampp
