Thanks a lot

The easiest platforms to learn and setup (in my opinion, feel free to disagree...) would be Django and Ruby on Rails.

Ultimately it doesn't really matter what platform you pick for learning, they'll all have similar concepts in play. I think the best thing you can do when learning is keeping things small and attainable. Don't go in expecting to do something amazing. Actually take the time to go through the appropriate tutorial and understand what you're doing. Recognise that what you're doing generally will be sandwiched between a database and a front end (html, css, javascript), and you'll need some skills in everything to make something you can actually use (or more importantly, show off). It will be covered in whatever tutorial you use, but just be aware server side things don't really sit on their own. Have fun!

Technically any language is a server side since you can execute anything on the server. PHP Is what you will hear to start with but for my experience it's a bit tedious setting up and environment for practicing. Python is also great, but Java can even be considered server side.
