Magento

[largemammal]

So has anyone tried installing Magento (http://www.magentocommerce.com/)? It looks super spiffy. I'd like to take it for a spin, but I can't get it installed correctly. My programming skills are fairly limited, just XHTML/CSS. Anyway, if anyone can help me get this thing installed I'm having some trouble. Hopefully PowWeb will offer this in InstallCentral...

yeah im trying to get magento to work also. however i can get pass the download step by increasing the memory limit on the php.ini file. however still stuck on the 4th step because powweb currently do not have the pdo_mysql extension on php5, im i e-mailed support to see if such extension can be added. ill keep ya posted... btw if you can get it to work before i can please pm me. LOL =)

Adding pdo_mysql would be considered a "suggestion" -- ie. this is not something that is likely to happen on an ad hoc basis -- such a feature addition would be considered by Product Management for the next major upgrade of the CGI/PHP platform (these tend to happen about once per year).

For this type of thing, use the Wishlist to add your suggestions... they are reviewed and categorized; due to other changes going on in the larger Administrative system [these don't affected Powweb at present], there won't be a lot of Product Changes made in the system for the next several months.

Any update on this? I was able to get past the initial pdo_mysql issue using this:

However, I got stuck on a later step and was hoping someone made it further...
