I would definitely recommend PHP (hypertext pre-processor) which is an absolute breeze to learn. Also, tutorials about PHP are all over google.
The reasons I recommend PHP otherwise would be the easy installation and compatibility with linux. ASP might come in second, but it’s not as good(in my opinion) as PHP.
PHP has a beautiful syntax and a great community. I suggest you start learning by watching this series.

PHP..huge community. plenty of documentation. easy to learn the basics. a little bit of coding freedom. very powerful. plays well with other programs. check out tizag.com it will walk you through some basics and get you started. It also has a decent tut on there for mysql which you will need to learn. Download EasyPHP for your computer. it will help you while developing as well.
