Welcome to the Crystal9 project site!

Crystal9 is an open source e-commerce engine. It's written in Perl, which allows it to be run on any platform that supports perl (quite a few) and under any web server that supports Perl CGI scripts. This means it will run on Linux (all flavors), Windows (9x, NT, 2000, XP), OS X, Solaris, BSD, Irix, OS/2, and many more OS's. It will eventually run with any SQL compatible backend database (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, DB2, etc.), although right now, MySQL is the only one that works right out of the box. (It is developed and tested with Debian Linux, Apache 2.0, Perl 5.8, and MySQL, so I can't guarantee it will work with anything else, but let me know if you get it to run on a different configuration.)

Crystal9 is derived from AllCommerce, an open source e-commerce engine. Crystal9 was started in order for the development of the software to have a new focus (mainly security and bug fixes), as well as to avoid any copyright/trademark issues involved with the AllCommerce name.

Please feel free to peruse the AllCommerce Website. There you will find tidbits of information as well as the old documentation and FAQ's.
