WampServer

I have just updated to the latest version of Wampserver... Apache 2.4.9, MySQL 5.6.17, with a copy of 5.1.41 containing the old databases, and PHP 5.5.12.

Previously I was on Apache 2.2.8, MySQL 5.1.41, and PHP 5.2.6

This with Wampserver 2.5 on Vista SP2.

I was trying to get this to work yesterday, but ended up so confused, that I re-installed from scratch, the only amendment is moving the MySQL port to 3307, as 3306 didn't work.

My problem - I am unable to get localhost to work - I get "Server not found", but the W is green.

I see the popup which says (not sure of the exact English translation, it's in Spanish)
"Apache HTTP Server has stopped functioning and has closed"

php_error.log last line is
[02-Aug-2014 21:31:30 UTC] PHP Warning: PHP Startup: in Unknown on line 0

apache_error.log last lines are:
[Sat Aug 02 23:31:29.847604 2014] [mpm_winnt:notice] [pid 5420:tid 464] AH00428: Parent: child process 4504 exited with status 255 -- Restarting.

The time difference is something that I need to look into (later!) but both sets of errors were generated at the same time.

I was trying to get vhosts to work, but I have that remmed out temporarily. Trying to simplify...
# Virtual hosts
# Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

When the tray icon(the W) is GREEN, it means that all the 3 services are running. Did u try to "[]; ? - Did u changed the conf of your apache?

seems like links not working here...

 Did you try to "http: / / localhost : 80" ?

localhost:80 doesn't work either.

I am wondering if it is permissions. But if so, why do I keep getting ""Apache HTTP Server has stopped functioning and has closed" pop up?

Don't know if this helps - in Spanish, but happy to provide a translation if required,

Hi ComputerGenius,

================== Google Translate from English =========================

¿Te gustaría probar conectar usando TeamViewer para que pueda ver lo que realmente está sucediendo en su sistema?


A mi me parece como que ya tenga otra versión de MySQL en funcionamiento y tal vez Apache también. Si esto es lo que ha hecho es decir intentado instalar Apache y MySQL de alguna otra manera, asegúrese de que usted los haya desinstalado como 2 Apache o 2 MySQL no corren entre sí con facilidad en el mismo PC.

De cualquier manera, yo podría ayudarle a conseguir su sistema resuelto y WampServer funcionando correctamente.


Si te gusta esta idea, estoy en una zona horaria GMT +1, podemos organizamos un momento en que usted y yo podemos ser al cabo para que pueda conectar la PC a su PC y ayudarle a resolver estos problemas.

TeamViewer es gratuito para uso casual y no comercial.

=================== English Original =================================

Would you like to try connecting up using TeamViewer so I can see what is actually happening on your system?


It looks to me like you may already have another version of MySQL running and maybe Apache as well. If this is what you have done i.e. tried installing Apache and MySQL some other way, make sure you have uninstalled them as 2 Apache or 2 MySQL dont run together easily on the same PC.

Either way, I could help you get your system sorted out and WampServer running properly.


If you like this idea, I am in a GMT+1 timezone, can we organise a time when you and I can both be at out PC's so I can connect to your PC and help you solve these problems.

TeamViewer is free for casual and non commercial use.

Thanks for your help.

We missed the fact the .htaccess contained RewriteEngine On in most sites, and I had left Apache rewrite_module off, but once I corrected that, everything that I have tested is working fine.

COOL

I don't know why, the file worked on the earlier version of Wampserver that I had, and is only puttiing stuff on screen!

I have changed one program, so that all it is, is
<?php
echo 432;
die("123";

After running for about 25 seconds, the error message popup appears, and the script continues to attempt to load for another 25 seconds, before giving up.

What is in the php error log.

Nothing, absolutely blank.

Upped the error level on httpd, and go this (but it all looks ok to me)
