The JEM installer will check for minimal version requirements and will abort the install if they are not met. 

The following PHP settings are recommendend:

  • max_execution_time >= 30
  • memory_limit >= 32M (>= 64M recommended) - depends on other Joomla extensions used
  • safe_mode >= off
  • allow_url_fopen >= on
  • upload_max_filesize >= 4M

For local development you can use a local webserver of your choice e.g. Apache or IS.
