Please note: If for any reason you're not able to use Composer to install OXID eShop or one of its modules on a specific application server, please skip this step and read these instructions to learn how to deploy the source code using an alternative method. This solution does require knowledge of Composer, as you have to run the Composer commands on one machine and then copy the files over to the application server.
