I recently purchased litecommerce, a shopping cart program from the makers of x-cart. Unfortunately it is not compatible with my current hosting company. Do you know if any of your current users are running x-cart or litecommerce? I would like to verify that Total Choice Hosting will be compatible now and in the future. Below are a list of the server requirements of litecommerce:
Server requirements
1. Web server with support for PHP version 4.1.0 or higher 4.x release (versions 4.2.2 and 4.2.3 are not recommended, as they contain bugs with memory leak flaws) and dynamic libraries loading support enabled (enable_dl directive enabled *).
Please notice that PHP5 is not supported currently. See the explanations here.
Your php.ini should match the following requirements:
safe_mode is disabled;
file_uploads is enabled;
allow_url_fopen is enabled.
All these values are default.
For more info visit the PHP site at http://www.php.net
2. The web server must have support for MySQL database version 3.23 or better. You will need to have access to MySQL database, i.e. to know the MySQL server name, database name, username and password for MySQL access.
3. The server perfomance, recommended for LiteCommerce to be run on, depends on the number of visitors your store will have. Unpacked distribution of LiteCommerce requires about 10 megabytes of disk space, but you may need more if you are going to use additional files and custom templates for LiteCommerce.
4. The database size used by LiteCommerce depends on the number of products, customers and orders stored in it. For example, for small shops it may be 1 megabyte, for medium 10, and for huge stores over 100 megabytes.
5. CURL executable or libCURL PHP module installed or OpenSSL external application if you want to process credit cards using Authorize.NET or PayPal or many others payment gateways or use real time shipping calculation services.
6. EXPAT extension for PHP is required for Intershipper, UPS or USPS shipping modules.
Will any of the above setting change in the future?
Also, I have my own SSL certificate. Can this be transferred to your site? and will I have a dedicated IP address?
Thanks for the help,
JT
