Re: Migrating PHP website from Windows to Linux or between Linux distributions

This should not be an issue at all, just keep an eye out for case
sensitive filenames when swtiching between *nix and windows. Most
developers use local environments and benefit from faster development
times by not having to upload files to test edits every time.

I run my own hosting company so develop live on my servers using
temporary dev domains, but used to develop locally and I am thinking
about setting up a local web server as I have a few lying around.

Are you likely to be working on one or multiple projects? If just one
then I would suggest you try and setup your local environment to match
your production environment as closely as possible.

If you are working on multiple projects and the production sites will
be uploaded to various client hosting environments, this is never
going to be possible, just try to work with as standard a
configuration as possible (i.e. dont rely on libraries that clients
may not have available with their hosting solutions).
