I'm building a web app on my Mac and have so far been testing with XAMPP. I'm looking at finding a virtual server vendor to host my application but have found almost none that is compatible with Mac, Apache, PHP and MySql. I don't want to go the Mac Mini route for now.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could do this or what vendor to use?

If it's a PHP/mySQL app, chances are it's not very dependent on the OS it's running on. Unless you have something totally Mac specific running in your app, getting a normal Linux VPS may be the way to go.

  • Where is your *programming* problem? – Matthias Feb 29 '12 at 15:03
  • @Matthias there are grey areas. See e.g. the wildly popular [Pre-installed Linux for Web Developers?](http://stackoverflow.com/q/2154457) – Pekka Feb 29 '12 at 15:04

  • @Matthias true, but is it a big deal? Stack Overflow has a lot more serious problems than the occasional slightly off-topic question. IMHO.

  • @Matthias. This is my first post to SOF and I'm new to the community. Here's to hoping that community users are not as negative or this may end up being a very sort lived signup. – nuevo Feb 29 '12 at 19:36
