    Want to run Wordpress...MS SQL and MySQL on the same server?

    Reply Contact

    I have a windows 2008 server box with 4 meg.  As I developed the site I used MS SQL 2008 Express.

     But now I want to set up a WordPress blog.  But it requires PHP and MySQL for the install.  This makes me REALLY nervous!

    Does anyone run both database servers on a single box?  I would welcome any advice...

    Thanks!

    I am starting to think you might be right.  You can install Wordpress from the www.microsoft.com/Web site.

    They would not do this if you could not run both databases...

    Anyone else have any comments (I know it is the weekend, so I will wait for more comments).

    Thanks for the reply HostingASPNet!
