Yes hello. I want to host my own server on my own computer. But my script relies on a MySQL Database. And I'm clueless as to how to create a MySQL Database on my own computer. The script is already set up to run a MySQL Database all I have to imput is the Host and the IP of the database.

But I am clueless as to how to set up a MySQL Database on my computer. And if I did, how would I manage that database? I am used to managing databases via phpmyadmin. So how would I manage the database if not though phpmyadmin? Or is there a way I can get a free database and free phpmyadmin to use with my home laptop?

Thank you again for helping me resolve my issues.

Sincerely,
Airin

Install WAMP server or EasyPHP and run, but turn Apache off. (Apache + PHP is the WEB server for parsing PHP scripts, you don't need that)

Which one do I download? 13.1 VC9 or VC11?

Okay I have EasyPHP and it's running what do I do next?
