Does your server meet the requirements for Magento?

Crucial Total Posts: 505 Joined: 2007-11-07 Phoenix, AZ Ignore user	I posted this file in another thread, but figured some people might find this useful. It’s a PHP script I made real quick that checks to see if your server meets the requirements for Magento. If it does, it lets you know, otherwise it tells you what needs to be installed. See attached for the PHP script. Simply upload it and then go to it in your browser. It checks for the following: -PHP 5.2.0 (or greater) -MySQL 4.1.20 (or greater) -cURL -DOM -GD -hash -iconv -mcrypt -pcre -PDO -PDO_MYSQL -SimpleXML Here’s the code: <? extension_check(array( 'curl', 'dom', 'gd', 'hash', 'iconv', 'mcrypt', 'pcre', 'pdo', 'pdo_mysql', 'simplexml' )); function extension_check($extensions) { $fail = ''; if(version_compare(phpversion(), '5.2.0', '<')) { $fail .= '<li>PHP 5.2.0 (or greater)</li>'; } if(!ini_get('safe_mode')) { preg_match('/[0-9]\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+/', shell_exec('mysql -V'), $version); if(version_compare($version[0], '4.1.20', '<')) { $fail .= '<li>MySQL 4.1.20 (or greater)</li>'; } } foreach($extensions as $extension) { if(!extension_loaded($extension)) { $fail .= '<li>'.$extension.'</li>'; } } if($fail) { echo '<p>Your server does not meet the requirements for Magento.'; echo 'The following requirements failed:</p>'; echo '<ul>'.$fail.'</ul>'; } else { echo '<p>Congratulations! Your server meets the requirements for Magento.</p>'; } } ?> File Attachments magento-check.php (File Size: 1KB - Downloads: 211) Signature █ Crucial Web Hosting █ We provide hosting for Magento in shared, semi-dedicated, and dedicated configurations. █ Our Containers include free features like professional Magento support, SSL certificate, McAfee Secure, and hourly backups.

We made a few small changes like checking for Safe Mode and displaying a detailed pass/fail information. http://www.magentocommerce.com/store/professional-magento-installation Thanks Crucial for putting this together File Attachments magento-check.php (File Size: 2KB - Downloads: 75) Signature Adi Community Administrator
