View Full Version : Akopia host
MikeMike 06-29-2001, 04:37 PM I want Akopia Interchange and I was told that it couldn't be installed on the shared servers at my host Pair.com, so now I am looking for a new host where Akopia can be installed and is not against their policies.
Any suggestions?
Best regards

The chances of it running correctly are slim, but for a real fan of that script spawn of satan, it could provide an interesting, but time consuming, diversion or hobby.
Good Luck..
:D
Yeah, superman is right, all hosts with Cpanel offer the Akopia cart, however, it is very buggy and practically a mess. I guarantee you that most hosts hate it. ;)

Yep.. a lot better and free too.
We go remove akopia from the control panel and offer the exchange project at request.
MikeMike 06-29-2001, 08:24 PM So you guys basically says that it's not up running in a acceptable way anywhere?
The exchange project is on my 2nd spot but Akopia would be so perfect for me.
I have great SE rankings for my sites and I do not believe I can keep that with dynamic pages. Akopia can create all your pages static.
This is a real pain. I have spend two weeks finding the right cart, and the right cart dont work :confused:
It works just fine on our servers. Please Note: I am not trying to advertise ourselves. Moderators: Please delete if violating the rules.
As I said before, it works fine on our servers and on many other hosts' servers, the thing is that it is buggy and sometimes eats up a lot of memory, but other than that it is not that bad. :)
<<MOD NOTE:>>
Don't worry Bert, you can say it runs fine on your servers. Just not, "Hey we can give you that for..." :D

AS ksstudio say before all the host with CP have Akopia Intercharge, but.. At least I think that is not recommendable for an intensive use.
ecomiscool.com 06-30-2001, 04:13 AM To install akopia root access is a must. For one, it installs a interchange start/stop script in the /etc/rc.d/init.d . Also the interchange server runs in the background all the time. You can't do this kind of thing on a shared server without the root access.
Akopia is basically meant to be a server wide program, where virtual users can access instances of it. I also agree it is buggy and crashes often. I have not seen one cpanel user who uses this shopping cart seriously.

I installed for test purpose but want to get rid of it now, but can't what file do i edit to stop/uninstall.

KDAWebServices 06-30-2001, 06:42 AM Akopia is hands down the best shopping cart solution out there - when it runs, and it's not it's fault, we had it running perfect when we were with Alabanza but Akopia really really hates CPanel for some reason.
