What you need to run it
Check your hosting before you buy. Almost every installation problem comes from one of these items.
Requirements at a glance
| Item | Requirement |
|---|---|
| PHP | 8.2 or newer |
| Database | MySQL 5.7 or newer, or MariaDB 10.3 or newer |
| PHP extensions | bcmath, ctype, curl, fileinfo, gd, intl, json, mbstring, openssl, pdo, pdo_mysql, tokenizer, xml, zip |
| For one-click updates | The sodium extension and zip support |
| Web server | Apache or Nginx, with the document root pointing at the public folder |
| Scheduled tasks | A cron job that runs every minute |
| Writable folders | storage and bootstrap/cache (permission 775) |
| HTTPS | Strongly recommended. Required by online payment gateways and webhooks |
| Internet from the server | To activate and re-verify the licence, check for updates, send mail and SMS, and reach payment gateways |
The installer checks all of this for you in step one and tells you exactly what to fix.
