Ya i had tried this many times but it didnt worked out.Finally i had decided to format the system but for the last chance what i did that i install the WAMP on my Windows Server 2008(Dual Boot) and every thing there was working fine.So what i did is i copied the wamp from Windows Server to Windows 7 and it worked.It took my windows server root password and i am now working with it.

But there is one issue localhost works fine but phpmyadmin does not works

Any Idea

great idea.. but u should have just cleared the cache of your browser...it worked just fine for me.

For phpmyadmin to work your server has to be online and make sure your port 80 is free. close programs like skype if its open on your pc. let me know wat happens when you try this.

it's nothing to do w/ online offline mode for phpmyamdin to work; phpmyadmin not working means you might have some other db soft or db config file running, so search and delete any my.ini file outside wamp folder

Thanks Nero and yfastud for your reply

When i visits
[localhost]

It show WAMP Server Page but when i click on phpmyadmin it shows a blank page with no error.I am using Internet Explorer 8 .

I tried to check whether the port 80 is used by some other application and shows the following message.So guys can anybody tell me whats going wrong .

Your port 80 is actually used by :

Server: Apache/2.2.11 (Win32) PHP/5.3.0


Press Enter to exit...
