It is one of the most popular and powerful e-commerce and online store management softwares. osCommerce allows you to setup and maintain e-stores very easily with almost no effort.<\/p>\n<p>The installation is quite easy and straightforward and can be done by following the steps described in this article.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>To install and run osCommerce on your server you need to have PHP version 4+ and MySQL version 3+ installed on your <a title=\"Linux VPS\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Linux VPS<\/a> .<\/p>\n<p>You can easily find out your MySQL version by executing the &#8216;<em>mysql -V<\/em>&#8216; command and your PHP version by executing &#8216;<em>php -v<\/em>&#8216;. If your server meets the osCommerce requirements you can start with the installation.<\/p>\n<p>Create a MySQL database for your osCommerce installation:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: shell; gutter: true\">echo \"CREATE DATABASE oscommercedb;\" | mysql -u root -p\necho \"CREATE USER 'oscommerceuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'PASSWORD';\" | mysql -u root -p\necho \"GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON oscommercedb.* TO 'oscommerceuser'@'localhost';\" | mysql -u root -p\necho \"FLUSH PRIVILEGES;\" | mysql -u root -p<\/pre>\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget to change &#8216;PASSWORD&#8217; with a strong password.<\/p>\n<p>The current stable version of os osCommerce is 2.3.3. Go to osCommerce&#8217;s official website, download the latest stable osCommerce zip file and unzip it.<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: shell; gutter: true\"># unzip oscommerce-2.3.3.zip<\/pre>\n<p>Once it is unzipped, move the &#8216;\/catalog&#8217; directory to the document root directory. To find your document root directory execute:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: shell; gutter: true\"># grep -i '^documentroot' \/etc\/httpd\/conf\/httpd.conf\nDocumentRoot \"\/var\/www\/html\"\n# mv oscommerce-2.3.3\/catalog \/var\/www\/html<\/pre>\n<p>To make your web server able to save the installation parameters to its configuration files, change the owner of the following files:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: shell; gutter: true\"># chown apache: \/var\/www\/html\/catalog\/includes\/configure.php\n# chown apache: \/var\/www\/html\/catalog\/admin\/includes\/configure.php<\/pre>\n<p>With this step, the installation from the command line is done. Now point your browser to http:\/\/YOURDOMAIN.TLD\/catalog and follow the on-screen instructions. After you complete the web-based installation you will have fully functional e-commerce and online store management system installed on your virtual server.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, you don\u2019t have to do any of this if you use one of our <a title=\"Linux VPS Hosting\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/managed-vps-hosting.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Linux VPS Hosting<\/a> services, in which case you can simply ask our expert Linux admins to install this for you.
