WampServer

Hi

I had WAMP working just fine on windows xp then all of a sudden I get the dreaded yellow tray icon.
It was suggested that my security software is causing this. I couldnt find anywhere to configure this in my security software so I installed new security software and re-installed WAMP. It started working again for about 10 minutes then reverted back to yellow again. I've tried re-installing WAMP several times but still get the yellow code.
Could it be something else? does Mysql or something need to be configured?

Thanks

is it myql or apache that i not working?

yellow just mean one of them is not working..

goto c:/wamp/logs and post up the last 15line or so of the mysql log and apache error log

All 3 of the services show a blank browser page when opened, I'm assuming this is because they can not be found. When I first try to open the error logs for phpmyadmin and for apache I get a message saying the error logs can not be found and if I would like to start a new log.

This is the error log I get for mysql:

Thanks Again!

yellow which means only 1 service running, most likely apache is not running, so make sure you dont' have anything in this list: IIS, Skype, Zone Alarm, NOD32, Eset, Internet Optimizer, Google Accelerator, any other database server, any other webserver?

Got it!
Skype was the culprit, I removed it, restarted and everythings back to normal.
Thanks a million!

You're welcome anytime ;-)
BTW, you can setup Skype to use different port so you can use both Skype and wamp. Setup skype using different port as follows File -> Options -> Connection -> Uncheck “Use port 80 as an alternative for…”
