Magento Hosting Requirements
Magento is a fantastic open source ecommerce shopping cart. However, the software will require a few important modules to be installed on your web hosting provider’s server in order to get it working properly.

Here are basic requirements to successfully operate Magento Ecommerce Platform:

  • Web Server :

    There are many kinds of web servers, but Magento is designed to run best in a LAMP environment: Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP.

    • Apache 1.3.x
    • Apache 2.0.x
    • Apache 2.2.x
  • PHP Compatibility : 5.2.x and above

    Magento is written in PHP. It is built on the Zend Framework, which means it uses Zend’s library. If you want to customize Magento code, you should know not only PHP, but also something about Zend.
    Required Extension:

    • PDO/MySQL
    • crypt
    • ash
    • simplexml
    • GD
    • DOM
    • Iconv
    • Safe_mode off
    • Memory_limit 32M or more
  • MySQL:

    • 4.1.20 or newer
    • InnoDB storage engine
  • Cron Job

    Ability to run scheduled jobs (crontab) with PHP 5

  • Mod_rewrite enabled

    To make your shopping cart search engine friendly

  • SMTP Server

    SMTP stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. Most email systems use SMTP to send messages from one server to another. When Magento needs to send an email (such as an order confirmation), it connects to your host’s SMTP server and the server sends the email on Magento’s behalf.

  • Supported Browsers

    • Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 and above
    • Mozilla Firefox 2.0 and above
    • Apple Safari 2.x
    • Google Chrome
    • Adobe Flash browser plug-in should be installed
