If you plan to use the (optional) Elasticsearch Usage Statistics feature in DSpace, the ElasticSearch backend provides its own recommendations regarding Java version. http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/setup.html "Elasticsearch is built using Java, and requires at least Java 7 in order to run. Only Oracle’s Java and the OpenJDK are supported. We recommend installing the Java 8 update 20 or later , or Java 7 update 55 or later . Previous versions of Java 7 are known to have bugs that can cause index corruption and data loss." (However, if you plan to use the Solr-based Usage Statistics that are enabled by default within DSpace, you can ignore these additional requirements.) |

First, Maven is used once the installation package has been constructed in to construct the installer ([dspace-source]/dspace/target/dspace-installerand still uses some of the familiar ant build targets found in the 1.4.x build process), after which Ant is used to install/deploy DSpace to the installation directory.
Ant can be downloaded from the following location: http://ant.apache.org
