After you setup virtualbox, you need to install an OS first, Both Windows or Linux are ok. Then you can try to use any WAMP or LAMP software to setup an tonmcat server. For Windows, I recommend you use XAMPP, Upgrade the tomcat server to 8.X and then install ODK aggreagte. ---

@Scsaintey You can find the instructions for the VM at [https://docs.opendatakit.org/aggregate-vm](https://docs.opendatakit.org/aggregate-vm). The second step of the instructions links to the location of the download ([https://github.com/opendatakit/aggregate/releases](https://github.com/opendatakit/aggregate/releases)). ---

Thank you so much dear @yanokwa. I tried this instruction " [https://docs.opendatakit.org/aggregate-vm](https://docs.opendatakit.org/aggregate-vm)" when Idownloaded " ODK-Aggregate-v2.0.3-Windows.exe.zip". ![already](https://getodk.b-cdn.net/uploads/default/original/2X/8/8f53b2de7c73f5161f8912351291b0945d5daa9c.jpeg) but while installing, I don't see the OVA file. It also asks "tomcat server" which I don't have. Or should I download "ODK-Aggregate-v2.0.3-VM.ova.zip"? I didn't try this because I using windows. It maybe also easy I can get a video explanning the thing. ---

@Scsaintey I just looked up your computer and it's pretty old (more than 10 years), so I don't think the VM will work. You could try a local Tomcat install ([https://docs.opendatakit.org/aggregate-tomcat/](https://docs.opendatakit.org/aggregate-tomcat/)), but I can't guarantee that'll work either. Do you have a newer computer with a 64-bit processor you can try? ---

Thank you so much dear @yanokwa. You are right! But Unfortunately, I don't have any else new computer. I'm going to try your last suggestion and after I'll tell you the result. Thanks. ---

Please take the time to read the docs at [https://docs.opendatakit.org/aggregate-vm](https://docs.opendatakit.org/aggregate-vm). In particular, [https://docs.opendatakit.org/aggregate-vm/#securing-the-vm](https://docs.opendatakit.org/aggregate-vm/#securing-the-vm) describes how to log into the VM to secure it.
