As an ASP (Active Server Pages) application, xpandedcareers requires a Microsoft platform on which to run. Specifically, the host machine must run the following software:

- Windows NT 4, 2000 or 2003 Server
- Microsoft IIS 4.0+ web server
- MS Active Server Pages support
- MS SQL Server 7.0/2000+
- VBScript 5.0+ (installed on server with IE 5.0+, required for the file upload system to work)
- CDO, CDONTS, CDOSYS, ASPmail, or ASPemail for sending email.

Furthermore, xpandedcareers requires IUSR 'full control' permissions on the upload images folders and the CV folder. Some hosts set these as standard for the whole web and others will do it to the required folders if requested. But a few hosts will not do this or will only do it to certain folders that *they* specify. In that case, xpandedcareers will not function properly.

Local Development & testing

Most users will want to set xpandedcareers up on their own computer or network in order to develop and test the site. Fortunately, Microsoft provides a cut down version of the IIS web server that allows xpandedcareers to run on the following machines for development purposes: Windows 95/98, 2000 Pro, NT 4 Pro, XP Pro. Note that the web server will not run on XP Home or ME.

Obtaining Microsoft Software

Personal Web Server (the cut-down version of the IIS web server), the required database drivers and latest version of Internet Explorer (which is an easy way of installing the latest version of VBscript on your server) are all Microsoft software and can be downloaded free from the Microsoft web site. xpandedmedia does not supply or support this Microsoft software.
