WampServer

I am running into this problem where Wamp is Orange and wont start. I don't understand why this happened since everything was fine just a while ago. I was having trouble with a. framework (kohana) that I installed, then I resolved that issue by enabling " rewrite module" in apache everything work fine then. I don't know if the Apache's "orange issue" started right after that or later. Here are some errors that I see:

- In MySQL Log:

-In Windows Event Viewer:
The Apache service named reported the following error:
>>> Invalid command 'Require', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration .
The Apache service named reported the following error:
>>> AH00526: Syntax error on line 224 of C:/wamp/bin/apache/Apache2.4.4/conf/httpd.conf: .

Not really sure why this is happening, and I am kinda of a new Wamp user, any help will be appreciated!

I found the solution myself, so for your information:

The Require directive is supplied by mod_authz_core. If the module has not been compiled into your Apache binary, you will need to add an entry to your configuration file to load it manually. You can check which modules are compiled in with httpd.exe -l.

If the module is not compiled in, load it with a configuration line similar to the following:

LoadModule authz_core_module "<apache install dir>/modules/standard/mod_authz_core.so"

You will need to adjust the path for your system of course, and on a Windows box the library may well be a dll rather than an so file.

Hi,

Actually WAMPServer comes with the mod_authz_core.so already configured in httpd.conf so if it was turned off you must have done it yourself, intentionally or accidentally.

All you needed to do was uncomment the existing line in httpd.conf

LoadModule authz_core_module modules/mod_authz_core.so

Also APache on windows understands .so files as they are.
