koleary Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 Can anyone tell me what type of server database I need to set up to enable installation of oscommerce? Will it need to be an MYSQL or an SQL? Are there any specific requirments dictating how this database should be set up? Many Thanks in advance !! Kev!
Gauravs Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 Kevin, OSC has been designed for PHP & MySQL. You may still use any database that you wish to run your cart on, however you would have to ensure that every query that runs on MySQL is either compatible for SQL or modified for your new database. During installation a sql file is run that creates tables and also feeds in dummy values for the store. If you download osc from this site, it comes with a database schema that shows which all tables / columns are created and how they are related. IMHO, go with recommended PHP + MySQL combination.
