Can anyone recommend a good place to get hosting for testing of software using PHP and MYSQL? Most free PHP hosts have requirements on unique visitors or they inspect every Web site manually I'm on Vista, so I don't think I can easily set up my computer to run them. I tried IBServer, but it seems to be silently failing

Sadly no. You can try out Xampp to host a local server, which is what I used to use: http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html

Thanks, Treeki At least it seems to be somewhat working now, although phpMyAdmin seems to be being blocked Maybe I need to fuck around with Windows Firewall. I really don't want to actually turn it off.

How is it being blocked? What kind of error do you get? A screenshot would help.

OK, there seems to be a problem with MYSQL. According to the XAMPP Security page at http://localhost/security/:

"The MySQL server is not running or is blocked by a firewall!"

I told Windows Firewall to allow port 3306 over TCP and tried to restart MYSQL. It says that the service started in the XAMPP Control Panel, but when I go to the Security page, it says it's not running or is blocked.

Run the xampp-control.exe file.. does it show up as running?

If you can't get XAMPP working WampServer is a good alternative. It's what I use for all my stuff.

I suggest you try disabling the firewall. I'm using Vista too, and it sometimes happens to block stuff even when you tell it to not block it.

Actually, I've found some hosting that suits my needs They checked the Web site, but they were just looking for malicious content.

Thanks anyway though, everyone
