Sure. ecommerce tends to be very customized with merchants choosing a unique blend. but I'm glad to help. I've openacs 5.7 installed from tar using pg 8.3 and ecommerce 5.18. It would probably best to start a new thread when you're ready.
cheers!

I did get it installed...

If you look at ecommerce.info, you'll see a list of what it needs, all but one of which I had to get from cvs; no one maintaining them and keeping them working with latest n greatest I suppose.

In two or three cases, the depended-upon package required things like a later kernel, but I just forced the install, seemed to work fine, data model loaded and everything.

Then installing ecommerce was easy, data model loaded without error, and after restarting I could browse around a little.

I'll be doing more as time goes on, but it seems to work fine so far; I at least get no errors on the pages I visited.

So far so good...
