I was on vacation for a month and came back here in Switzerland 2 weeks ago. I felt exhausted just thinking about the work I left behind that I could not even do some updating to the sites.
Well, I finally updated the sites of Swiss Big Game Fishing and Green Cross Switzerland.
Last Saturday, the 27th of May, I added few photos at the Swiss Big Game Fishing and you can see those pictures at the “Fangerfolge” page. Literally, “Fang” as a noun means “Catch”, and “Erfolg” as a noun means “Success”.
Last night, I updated the site of Green Cross Switzerland, took the pop-ups, changed something on the pages that they updated when I was on vacation, and still working on some of the pages.
Regarding MySQL, I installed MySQL before in my computer and it was running ok, but few days ago I accidentally did something that I could not access my database afterwards. I could not fix it properly so I decided to uninstall it. I was able to re-install it last night.
I read these resources when I installed MySQL in my computer and thought that after what happened to me, I might as well write the links here for your reference. I have IIS (Internet Information Services) running in my computer and configure it so PHP (PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) would work aside from ASP (Active Server Pages).

Thank you everyone for taking the time to write all these so we have something to read.
I wonder if the problems were more related to IIS and Windows than with MySQL. You might consider getting a good Linux web host. I use and recommend DreamHost.
Hello Marc, it has nothing to do with IIS, I accidentally clicked root instead of new user, changed root with a new user name with new password, it was too late when I realized that I made a mistake. It has nothing to do with my web host. I’m using IIS just to check my PHP pages before uploading them but my web host uses Apache and Linux. I know about Dreamhost, it has good features.
