I'm doing queries on tables with 45,000 rows in one table and 1-2000 rows in another.. I think the queries are failing due to timeout on the server. The server is not dedicated to me and I may not be able to affect the timeout settings...though I'll ask my hosting company (Positive Internet). If I decide to do the queries on my local PC (I don't need or want to do them over the internet), (1) do I have to set up my PC as a server, (2) if so what's the quickest and easiest server to get started with, (3) are there complications running the server on the same PC as the client applications (ie my PHP code), (4) do I then download MySQL and PHP onto it, though I read PHP comes bundled with MySQL, (5) will it become clear to me what host name/IP address to use to connect to the database (up to now I've been told by the hosting company). Any other suggestions on timeouts on queries? Thanks, John http://www.cantor.com CONFIDENTIAL: This e-mail, including its contents and attachments, if any, are confidential.
