Take a look at Mifos

If you want to play around with a Mifos installation, by far the easiest way is to go to the test server (username mifos, password testmifos. If the account got locked, you can also try mifos1/testmifos, mifos2/testmifos, or mifos3/testmifos). We encoruage you to create your own account if you plan to use the test server on a regular basis.

The rest of this page is how to install mifos on your own machine (which we recommend only after you've taken a look at the test server).

Installing Mifos

The instructions for building and installing Mifos are in the README file. First download with subversion, then follow README.

A few additional notes (which might provide helpful, after you've looked at README):

1. Using Windows/Cygwin Notes
2. LinuxInstall Notes
3. Using Eclipse Notes

See also Instructions on How to Configure Mifos.

Live CD

An alternate, experimental way to test mifos easily is the Mifos LiveCD. A live CD is a download which you can burn to a compact disk. Then you boot from that disk, which supplies an operating system and everything you need to run mifos. Your regular operating system is not affected or involved.

Note that this currently appears to be broken...
