LOVD 3.0 - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
LOVD is completely based on Open Source software. Therefor obtaining software for the LOVD installation should not be hard. All programs described below are common software, generally installed on any (commercial) hosting provider. Sometimes a MySQL database is not included (or optional) with an standard account at a hosting provider.
| LOVD runs on Linux/Unix, Windows and Mac but has been most extensively tested on Linux. Therefor we recommend using a Linux/Unix server. |

 |
PHP scripting language (version 5.1.0 and up)
(Or PHP 5.0.0 with PDO enabled) |
