System requirements
From TYPO3Wiki
When you have proofed that the content is good enough for www.typo3.org, please change the {{review}} tag to {{publish|reviewerSignature=--~~~~}} .[edit] In general
- Operating System: Unix (e.g. Linux), Windows or Mac
- Web server: Apache, IIS
- Middleware: PHP4 or PHP5 (Note: Starting with TYPO3 4.2.0, all releases will require PHP 5.2!)
- Database: MySQL or any other database system supported by the TYPO3 DBAL (e.g. Oracle, Postgres and many others)(Note: Almost no extension features full support for DBAL at this moment)
- Hardware: A normal web server setup will do, with a modern CPU and at least 256 MB RAM. As with all database-driven applications, more RAM is advisable though.
Keep in mind that many webspace-providers have a runtime-, memory- and cpu-load-limit set on their servers, preventing some parts of TYPO3 (Extension Manager, Indexed Search or some other extensions) to function as expected. Changing to a dedicated server or to a specialized TYPO3-hosting-environment can solve those problems.
You'll find the list originally at typo3.org.
[edit] Special requirements of several versions of TYPO3
[edit] TYPO3 4.2
