WampServer

pls help me.
i installed wamp and everything doesn't work.
first i click the localhost and doesn't the page is all white.
i create simple hello.php file i saved it in c:wamp/www/ folder but if i access it in my browser like [localhost] the page is all white.
whats the problem? pls help me!

PLEASE ANYONE HELP ME!

why cant the browser read my php codes!???

PLEASE BE MORE PATIENT. IT'S 05:40AM..

First, check if wamp is started (icon in the system tray).
Then check the color of the icon. It should be white (all services running).
If not, start missing service.
If you can't, check its error log from its submenu.

If everything is okay, then maybe you are using short open tags : <? instead of <?php

Note: I've just seen url you are using => 'http://localhost/www/hello.php'
www is the public root folder, so 'http://localhost/' redirects to 'c:/wamp/www'
If you add 'www', it is searching for 'c:/wamp/www/www' which does not exists...

Simply test with 'http://localhost/hello.php'

toumimi im using vista maybe it does not work?
how can i recognize if it is php, mysql or apache that doesnt work?

where should i extract the patch in apps folder?

still it doesnt work if i click the phpadmin or localhost white page always!

Wow, wow !

So first, open wamp menu from system tray and you will see an Apache menu and a Mysql menu.
if you open it, you can see a submenu Service which allows you to (un)install / start / stop a service.

If service is not installed, install it. (else action should be disabled)
If it's installed but not started, start it (else action should be disabled)
If you can't start it (no effect) then check the log in submenu Apache -> apache error log if Apache is the problem or in Mysql -> mysql log if Mysql is the problem.

Concerning my patch, it doesn't problem.
For the moment, it adds functionnalities to wamp menu, so first, we will solve your problem

I think Apache got a problem with port 80 (probably Skype or IIS or another webserver), but you will get the answer by reading the error log...
