Hosting companies tend to vary in the way they configure their servers, and although we try to accommodate for all of these possibilities, it is still possible that certain server configurations can cause problems when setting up the auction and classified software even though they technically meet the minimum requirements. Fear not though, by default, most servers are already equipped with the minimum requirements set forth below, but simply need to be activated if not already.
Below are the requirements of the "host" you wish to install the software to. Your host should be able to tell you if they meet these requirements or not if you are not sure. If your current hosting provider does not meet the minimum requirements, and is unable or unwilling to accommodate you to meet these requirements, contact us for further options.
If you have a dedicated server with root access, and need help upgrading or installing something to meet any of these requirements, contact us and we can try to point you in the right direction as best we can. 1)

Any webhost that meets the above requirements will be sufficient to tun GeoCore. If you do not have one in mind, we have identified a few that meet the requirements, and listed them on the resources page.
