WampServer

Attempted to download Wampserver (64 bit) 2.4 and got a message with warnings on it. The only warning that required action was the need for vcredist_x64.exe. I downloaded and installed followed by a cold reboot. I did this three times. Attempts to download Wampserver never let me get beyond this message.

I attempted this download on two different computers, both running Windows 7 -64 bit with service pack 1. One is an HP laptop and the other is an ASUS being used as a graphics workstation. I want to simply use Wampserver to debug PHP script before uploading to a hosting service.


What am I doing wrong? It's as though I can't even get to the starting gate.

Thanks

I went to Microsoft's download site, downloaded and installed all the packages you list for WAMP 64 bit. All the different selections ended up with the download of two packages: vcredist_x86.exe and vcredist_x64.exe. I ran both these executables and did a cold reboot of the computer. The problem of getting the warning message and not being able to download still exists.

I really would like to get WAMP running; I find the idea of uploading untested web pages to a hosting server disquieting.

Can you get teamviewer and ill take a look for you? could be a couple of things missing that need a troubleshoot

Thanks for the offer Steven, I'll take you up on it. Let me get Teamviewer on my computer and I'll email you at one of the email addresses you listed, probably tomorrow. Got a preference which address and what time?

Gmail is best

Anytime after 7pm gmt would suit

Thanks for getting the Wampserver working. I built a directory structure, putting both htm and php pages in it and added another directory for art and everything works great. Again, thanks for the help.
