I hate to ask this but I couldn't find it by searching....

Will this software run under Windows or only on Linux / Unix?

Thanks

the install manual suggests a linux/unix hosting - isn't that also necessary for php? (i don't think php would run on win servers)

Well,

I do have php running on the machine in question.

It's a WindowsXP machine with MySQL, PHP, Perl and Coldfusion.

But I don't know if CubeCart will work on a Windows Box

As long as you have the latest versions PHP and MySQL running and either Linux or Windows OS at least.. then theres no reason why it can't run.

I installed a local copy on my computer which is XP Home. I do all my testing and modifications on it before uploading to my real store.

CubeCart will run on both Windows and Linux. Even on a Mac if you can install a local webserver, mySQL and PHP on it.

ha that i know, that apache is already running in os x ... php too - don't know about the mysql though - maybe i should look into this - i might even host my site on my mac biggrin.gif

If you have a fast upload then you can easily do it biggrin.gif
