At first, I decided that I would go with Apache 1.3, MySQL 4, and PHP 5. They played along very nicely, absolutely no problems. Later, I was asked by one of my users if I would like to upgrade to MySQL 5. And so I did. I've run several web apps on my server since then (phpbb, smf, wordpress, phpmyadmin, etc), and it seems that all of these are either updated to support MySQL 5. I've never had any compatibility issues with that. So, my personal and biased suggestion would be Apache 1.3, MySQL 5 and PHP5= .
