    osCommerce is PHP and MySql-based, which will run on any apache server. Mac OS X has a build in apache server, so you do not need Mac OS X Server to run it.

    What you do need to do is:
    1. Start running Apache server on your Mac
    2. Ensure that Apache’s PHP module is enabled.
    3. Install MySQL on that server
    4. Install osCommerce on that server.

    I suggest you refer to:
    1.
    2.
    3.
    4. osCommerce package instructions…

    It is perhaps not an easy ride if you have little experiences with these things, but it is possible.
