SQL
Solution for "Failed SQL queries"
Solution: as no unified timestamp format was used in production - it was decided to use only English environments from no on.
To prevent such things in future it was decided to always use to_timestamp functions and try to avoid localization specific notations.

DB structure
I am trying to structure a database for optimal use. But I have no idea how to make that happen. Here is what i will have
A category which will have many products and a count for each one of those products
For example
Restaurants will be the category and the products will be the computer system, cash register and each one of these products has a count so maybe there will be 2 cash registers and 3 computer systems and so on. Another category might be a bar, which might or might not have the same products. Then the user has the option of choosing a 2 restaurant package which might have a discount rate for getting all the products.
anyone knows how the DB structure should be ?!

Xampp that I normally use for creating PHP-sites didn't worked at this computer with a 64 bit Windows 7. The Problem is that I needed it to make some changes in the source of a php-site and this with that new computer. First I had to install xampp which I did, but it didn't worked.
