Do you have any experience with programming in Ruby or Rails? I’m just
trying to gauge what you already know, so I can start somewhere
relevant.

One thing I would suggest that you do is check out Spree. (
http://spreecommerce.com). It’s an open-source Ruby on Rails store
system,
and just might do what you’re looking for out of the box.

No, you do not want to use SQLite as your production DB. It’s OK for
development, but it’s not really meant to deal with concurrent requests.
Use a real multiuser DB such as PostgreSQL.

Can any body give me a clue as to how to
start?

rails ecommerce

That should be enough to have your basic rails application with a
SQLite database for each environment.

Then go for mySQL. It’s a reasonable second choice. Oracle might be
worth a look too.

Better yet, ask your professor if you can use PostgreSQL instead.

SQLite isn’t there either.
