I think you'll find that e-commerce sites do not come free. You probably want something like http://store.yahoo.com/

miju

actually we have 2 e-commerce systems installed on our server we just cant get them to work

Couldn't you just install a prescripted cgi/php e-shopping script and ensure ssl for privacy?

miju

this is the problem I can't figure out how to do it so can someone please help me

What are the ecommerce systems you have installed. What errors are you getting with them ? Post more details.

Are you looking for free help or are you willing to pay. People here might know some experts or may know the products themselves.

Ok firstly let me know what your httpd supports (php, asp ect..)
Once you have the ability to use one of the above scripting languages or even cgi/perl for that matter, then you should be set to go.

They are pretty straight forward to setup, usually come with a script.conf file for configuration and usually that is all you will need to modify. Then just upload it to your server, set the appropiate permissions accordanly (view the README) and your good to go. There isn't much of a complication to it. Also if it is database driven (which it usually is, flat file work is uncommon), you will need to setup tables and so forth, which the readme should also cover.

Like yellum asked, provide what e-commerce system you are attempting to use, if it isn't installed correctly either paste the error or post a link to the error generated by the httpd.

I'll look into that.

But the site is hosted with Carrig Host and they offer two carts Infrogram and Agora on their control panel. When I install them I can't figure out where to go from there.

AND I'M WILLING TO PAY (BUT I'M NOT RICH)

Have you looked at the Agora site?

miju

yeah I've looked at it but the domain name is up for sale so thats me scuppered on that front

Can recommend www.oscommerce.com - is free and eaasy to use (requires MySQL and php)

mneylon

There are plenty of shopping carts around.. the only restriction is your backend and CC processor.
Have a look at http://www.hotscripts.com/
