System requirements

PHP MySQL

To install WebAsyst Shop-Script on your web server it should satisfy following system requirements.

  • PHP 5
  • MySQL 4.1 or higher, 5.x
  • Required PHP extensions:

    • — mbstring, iconv for proper utf-8 encoding handling,
    • — ZLib is required for installation and automated updates (archive functions),
    • — domxml, simplexml — for parsing XML files,
    • — GD — for image resizing,
    • — cURL is required if you would like to receive SMS notifications on new orders or use one of the following payment and shipping options — Google Checkout, PayPal Express Checkout, Authorize.Net AIM, NetRegistry, eProcessingNetwork, UPS, USPS.
  • Apache web server with mod_rewrite enabled is required for user-friendly URLs style in your storefront (e.g. /product/alarm-clock/, /category/mobile-phones/). If mod_rewrite is disabled or if you use IIS web server, only old Shop-Script style URLs can be used (index.php?productID=X, index.php?categoryID=Y).
  • It is highly recommended to install web servers that do not limit maximum execution time for PHP scripts or where this limitation is not less than 3 minutes.
    WebAsyst Installer uncompresses entire archive with script files during installation — automatic propersetting of file access permissions (chmod) during installation and downloading of archive with software updates (automated scripts update system). If your web server limits the maximum scripts execution time, WebAsyst installation wizard will not be able to uncompress archive with script files (usually it takes about 2-3 minutes) which means that you will have to install software and set file permissions (chmod) manually.

! Will not work on PHP 4

WebAsyst Shop-Script works on PHP 5 or higher.
Software products Shop-Script PRO & PREMIUM, which are no longer sold, work on PHP 4. We decided to switch our applications fully to PHP 5 because PHP 4 is officially no longer supported (since January 1st, 2008). PHP 5 offers us more tools to enhance performance of our software and deliver new features to you.
