	The 352 MHz RF accelerating systems for the SOLEIL Booster (BO) and Storage Ring (SR) are being commissioned. In the BO a 5-cell copper cavity of the CERN-LEP type is powered with a 35kW solid state amplifier. In the SR the required RF accelerating voltage (up to 4.4MV) will be provided by two cryomodules, each containing a pair of superconducting cavities, specifically designed for SOLEIL. The parasitic impedances of the high order modes are strongly attenuated by means of four coaxial couplers, located on the tube connecting the two cavities. The first cryomodule is already installed in the SR tunnel, while the second one is being constructed by ACCEL (Germany). These cryomodules are supplied in liquid helium from a single 350W liquefier and each cavity is powered with a 190kW solid state amplifier. The RF system commissioning and first operation results are reported.

	The Low Level RF system that is used in the SOLEIL storage ring consists in fully analog "slow" amplitude, phase and frequency loops, complemented with a direct RF feedback. A fast digital FPGA-based I/Q feedback, currently under development, will be implemented later on. The performance of both systems has been evaluated using a Matlab-Simulink-based simulation tool. The computed and first experimental results are reported.

	SOLEIL is a third generation synchrotron radiation source, under construction in France near Paris. The storage ring consists of a 357 m circumference ring, with 16 cells and 24 straight sections, out of which up to 21 will house insertion devices (ID). The optics features a low 3.7 nm.rad emittance at the 2.75 GeV operating energy, so as to provide high brilliance, from the VUV up to the hard x-ray domain. To reach a long lifetime, and beam position stabilities in the micron range, significant attention was paid at each design stage (optics, magnets, beam position monitors, vacuum and RF systems…), including on the design of the building, the construction of which is now complete. This resulted in some unprecedented approaches such as the intensive use of NEG coating vessels, or the development of a dedicated SC RF cavity and of 200 kW solid state RF amplifiers. The injector system (100 MeV Linac) and the 3 Hz full energy booster synchrotron have reached nominal operating conditions by fall 2005, while the ring commissioning should start by April 2006. Innovative ID's were designed and built so as to provide the best possible performances in a wide energy range (5 eV to 50 keV).

	The commissioning of SOLEIL's storage ring will start in April 2006. The objective is to reach, within a first phase of two months, stable beam conditions at 100 mA in the multi-bunch mode that can be used for the commissioning of the beamlines. This is a challenging objective, especially because the SOLEIL's ring is incorporating some innovative techniques such as the use of a superconducting RF cavity, NEG coating for all straight parts of the machine and new BPM electronics. Prior to the start of the commissioning, some insertion devices and most of the insertion devices low gap vacuum vessels, including 10 mm inner vertical aperture vessels for the Apple-II type, will be installed on the ring. This paper will review the performances of all these equipment in presence of the beam. The results of the first commissioning runs will be presented.
