Would like to try to start up a snall business, I have the programs I want to use on my computer, I do have my own web site, but I would like to add a database for the public to have access to the information (locations, cities and so on), sort of like a Yellow Pages of information, but the information is specialized to each catagory. What type of server do I need to test this out on??
Any help would be greatful!
Never appled a SERVER before, trying to host a connection between my computer (database) and a remote login.?
First, for local testing, download and install the following, all of which are free, open-source, and ultra-reliable...
1) Apache (the web server)
2) PHP (the scripting language)
3) MySQL (the database server)
Thus far, for the best stability and easier installation, I'd go with Apache 2.0 and PHP 4.4
Alternately, go with a low-cost shared hosting solution that gives you all of these, and a web interface that allows you to easily configure and test (using cPanel and PHPMyAdmin)

I think you want to knw about Database/Server type.
Best server is Oracle www.oracle.com
if u know ur data wont go beyond 2 GB use MSDE (Microsoft Server Desktop Engine) or SQL
Best luck
