Foreign trade station building program Magento installation environment and server requirements

In the early years, Zuo also helped some friends to build foreign trade websites. At that time, ZENCART was commonly used. Later, people began to use Magento program. The former was really popular at that time, and there were even professional websites and theme development. A set of themes cost thousands of yuan. At that time, if the front-end theme development was really easy to make money, At that time, the foreign trade industry was in great demand, which was easy to do.

At present, I see that most of the independent B2C programs used for foreign trade websites are Magento programs. There is a customer installation program here, and I have not contacted this program for many years. So after I have configured the WEB in the cloud server, I am ready to install the program. Here I find the software environment required for installation from the official documents. Make a record by the way.

First, server requirements

Because we are going to build a foreign trade website, I personally recommend starting with 2GB of memory for server requirements, otherwise such a large program load is not enough, and they should buy Google Auction or other diversion methods later. The traffic is relatively large, and if it is not enough, they need to upgrade at any time. The configuration environment must be the Linux system, the regular PHP+MYSQL.

Support Apache or Nginx. I prefer to use Nginx here.

II. Procedure requirements

Database suggestions: MySQL 5.6, 5.7

Also supports MariaDB 10.0, 10.1, 10.2

PHP requires 7.2-7.3, so we try not to be too low in PHP.

Other requirements:

• ext-bcmath
• ext-ctype
• ext-curl
• ext-dom
• ext-gd
• ext-hash
• ext-iconv
• ext-intl
• ext-mbstring
• ext-openssl
• ext-pdo_mysql
• ext-simplexml
• ext-soap
• ext-xsl
• ext-zip
• lib-libxml

It is recommended to install PHP OPcache.

In a word, if you are prompted that you cannot install during the installation process, you need to check whether any component is not installed. Generally, overseas virtual hosts are compatible. If we configure the WEB with an independent server, we need to pay attention to the environment. Sometimes, we need to install software that is limited by the server environment.
