It looks to me like your local server is not seeing a space in your folder name at...

Site > Manage Sites > click your site > Edit > Servers > Testing > Edit > Web URL

Make sure the folder name is the same in your Files window as it is in the server settings.

Good deal, was it the folder name mismatch causing the issue or something else?

Just as a note.

Even if you get the testing server running, it will not work with the deprecated server behaviours. This is because the version of PHP your testing server is running is PHP 7, and the SB's do not work with this version.

Right.  

An older version of Xampp will have older PHP.  But your remote server might not be compatible.  Ideally, you r testing & remote servers should have the same version of PHP & MySQL.   You'll have fewer surprises that way.

Create a new PHP file with code below.

<!doctype html>

<html>

<head>

<meta charset="utf-8">

<title>PHP info</title>

</head>

<body>

<?php phpinfo() ?>

</body>

</html>

SaveAs phpinfo.php  & upload to server.

Open page in browser.  This will tell you which versions of PHP & MySQL you have.

You need to launch Xampp to use it.  Is Xampp running?
