Php, MySQL

I would appreciate the ablility to use .php/MySQL on our server. We're on a Mac OS X box and the guy that runs the server said he tried to install .php and it crashed the server.

I don't know much about servers, but I know we could use a database. Any suggestions?

These two websites seem to have pretty nice php and mysql packages:

http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/
http://serverlogistics.com/downloads.php

Check those out. With these it's extremely easy to get mysql, php, and apache working in harmony within all of 5-10 minutes. But that's on just OSX and not OSX server. So if it's for use with OSX server then I'm not sure how they well they work.

Where can I get access to a php, mySQL server? I need something to test in, it will have very little traffic.

Let me know if you have any ideas, thanks!

Seth, we have a server you can certainly do some testing on.

I'll send you details in an email.
