Question Creating a blog site on a local computer

Hello!

I would like to create a blog website on a web domain of mine. The blog will be used for publishing economics-lated articles.

I tried to use a few open source packages for blog creation (WorldPress, b2evolution, Movable type) which I wanted to test on a local computer before arranging a hosting service.

I tried to set up first a Windows XP testing enviroment, installing Apache + PHP + MySQL + phpMyAdmin, after that I tried xampp and WampServer, but with neither of these I could start any of the blog creating packages.

The problem is setting the testing enviroment. Now I considering Ubuntu Server for a simple LAMP installation.

I hope you can give me some advise which package for blog creation I can use and how to set up a local computer test enviroment for it.

Thanks in avdance!
