'''CollabVM Server 2.0''' is an open source server that, as the name suggests, powers CollabVM, its variants, and some of its mirrors (although most remain on CollabVM 1.x). CollabVM 2.0.0 was released on February 17, 2020.
'''CollabVM Server 2.0''' is an open source server and complete rewrite of the 1.x core which is intended to be a proper replacement to the former [[CollabVM Server 1.x]], but was discontinued after four months due to rushed development, creative burn-out and 4 years of broken promises and procrastination. It used to power CollabVM.


CollabVM Server 2.0 currently runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, and BSD, but binaries must be built manually on the latter two.

CollabVM Server 2.0 is an open source server and complete rewrite of the 1.x core which is intended to be a proper replacement to the former CollabVM Server 1.x, but was discontinued after four months due to rushed development, creative burn-out and 4 years of broken promises and procrastination. It used to power CollabVM.

CollabVM Server 2.0 currently runs on Windows, Linux, macOS and BSD, but binaries must be built manually on the latter two.

Sections

New Features

  • Bugs, crash exploits, malpractices and memory leaks
  • Account registrations / username reservations.

    • Linux and Windows: At least 512 MB of free RAM on the server (Recommended: at least 2GB)
  • Processor:

  • Space: At least 200 MB for collab-vm-server (5-10 GB of free space for VMs)

Operating Systems

BSD

FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD

  • Will build, but the required dependencies must be compiled or installed manually as vcpkg does not support these operating systems.

Linux

Any Linux distro running at least Linux Kernel 2.6.x will run collab-vm-server 2. So instead this page will list the minimum versions it will run on, and the minimum version you will need for support from the Developer team if you run into any problems.

Arch Linux

  • Requires at least Arch Linux 0.6 at minimum. Any modern Arch Linux install with all packages updated is recommended. An Arch Linux version from at least January 2020 is needed for full support.

CentOS

  • Requires at least CentOS 4 at minimum. CentOS 8 is recommended. CentOS 6 or newer is required for full support.
