Install on a Macbook Pro

Tim Brown posted 8 Years Ago

So, if I am reading the guide right, Rock won't rock on my Macbook Pro. Is that correct? I have to instal it on a PC

Hi Tim,

That is correct. It requires IIS and SQL which cannot run on a Mac. You'd probably want to install it on a copy of Windows Server as well.

What is Windows Server? I'm not a tech guy. Can I just install it on the desktop PC at our church office and use Webhostingpad?

You could install a demo version on a desktop OS of Windows. But to run Rock in a production environment, some version of Windows Server (2012, 2012 R2, 2014) is a must.

If you are just looking to experiment and experience Rock, you might also consider kicking the tires over at http://rock.rocksolidchurchdemo.com/

Okay, thanks. I think this is way beyond us right now.

For some churches, the thought of running their own server is crazy talk... that's why Rock has partners that can do all the heavy lifting for you and give you a "turnkey" experience where you just log in and start configuring. https://www.rockrms.com/Partners (scroll down to Hosting & Support) . Just wanted you to know it's an option.
