PHPauction Web Hosting

PHPauction as the name suggests is a professional auction software package which offers a complete suite of applications and services for building auction web sites. Phpauction has been started by Gianluca Baldo as a personal project in the year 1997. The first version of Phpauction was written in PHP/FI language (also called PHP2) and was using miniSQL as database back end. It was in October 1999 that the script was migrated to PHP3 and the database engine changed to MySQL. In 2006, Phpauction launched 6 different dynamic transaction engine choices including classifieds, trading, plus modules and specific packs.

Today PHPauction is one of the leading players in web based auction software technology for small/medium companies. It offers turn key auction solutions for all kinds of companies and features an easy to use step by step installer. The web based back-end administration offers complete control over all aspects of the application and also offers a wide variety of options to choose from: Standard auctions, Reverse auctions, Classifieds, Trading software and modules.

Explained below in detail are the products offered to suit various needs:
1. PHPauction GPL:

The PHPauction GPL 3.2 is thus far the most basic and simplest product offered by Phpauction software. This product is very user-friendly, flexible and reliable with an easy to use administration back end. This is an ideal option if the user wants to just start out with an auction site or develop their own custom web based auction website. This software is completely free to use, modify and distribute and it is available under the GPL license. c
All Phpauction packages have been successfully tested under different Unix/Linux environment. Windows operating systems are not supported. Phpauction also requires the ability to set up cron jobs (under *nix systems). This in effect is required in order to run the script (cron.php) responsible for checking expired auctions, updating the database accordingly, and sending notification e-mails to sellers and buyers. For windows users there’s the possibility to run cron.php using the auctionupdate.c utility in the cron directory. The README file explains its usage.
