WampServer

Greetings everyone,

I'm very excited about getting WAMP rolling on my server. Here's the scenario:

1. Running Windows Server 2003 with IIS on port 80
2. Installed WAMP to a virtual drive (d and set up apache to listen on port 8080
3. Created a new directory in the /www/ folder called /www/scg-news/ and loaded wordpress files into the directory.
4. Set up a database with phpmyadmin, created a new user and set privileges. Edited the config file for the WP installation with those details and tried to load the page. [localhost]

This results in a 500 error but the strange thing is, the error logs have nothing in them?!

Any idea of the problem?

Here are the last few lines of my access.log file-

wordpress will auto rewrite the url and the problem is it will not include the port, so better to uninstall IIS; if you need asp.net, you can follow my guides to install asp.net on wamp
