You need to setup the OpenMRS SDK by running this command in your terminal `mvn org.openmrs.maven.plugins:openmrs-sdk-maven-plugin:setup-sdk` before running `mvn openmrs-sdk:help` ? ---

Hi @jayasanka check the screenshot I sent above. I think that’s the expectation after the sdk is installed correctly . Now what I’m asking next is how do I get install docker correctly or can I run openMRS server without installing docker? ---

To upgrade to the latest version of the OpenMRS SDK by running `mvn openmrs-sdk:setup-sdk -U` kindly continue following steps in the guide that is what @jayasanka is trying to communicate. ---

Hi thank you [@everyone](https://talk.openmrs.org/groups/everyone) for the help in one way or the other. I have succesfully ran the server on my system. Looking forward for the next step. I ask for advice where best can I start next from this step ![Screenshot from 2023-03-05 13-59-45](https://talk.openmrs.org/uploads/default/original/3X/3/7/37df7d63f87f715b0520552e4c87cc23c32509d8.png) ---
