Will VP-ASP run on my hosting company?
VP-ASP is written in Active Server Pages (ASP); Microsoft's programming language for the web. It will run on a Windows-based server, and not Unix.
The free demo will help you verify whether or not VP-ASP can function with your hosting company without purchasing anything; as many basic packages will only allow static HTML pages and no dynamic content which a shopping cart software requires.

When will VP-ASP not Run?
Some Internet Service Providers (ISPs) are not web hosting companies, which means they facilitate you with Internet access and allow you to create simple websites but do not support ASP and/or databases.
ASP is simply HTML that has program logic around it. VP-ASP requires a database to hold information such as product details, orders and customer details. If your ISP does not support ASP and databases, then VP-ASP will not run.
The Economy Plan with GoDaddy is not sufficient to run VP-ASP. You will need the Deluxe Plan at a minimum. We unfortunately cannot provide support for customers on the Economy Plan due to restrictions imposed by GoDaddy for users at this level. Also note that GoDaddy will not allow installation of additional COM objects that are required by some payment gateways.
