WampServer

I've been using wamp on a windows 2008 for a couple of days. everyhing was working perfectly. but since I've restarted the machine I'm getting "502 Unknown Host" when I try to connect using the IP. It only works with local. Nothing new has been install since.

didnt know it would work on windows 2008

what colour is the wamp icon?

did u try h ttp://127.0.0.1

It was working perfectly until the restart.

it's white.

h ttp://127.0.0.1 is working just like localhost but it's unaccessible from another computer.

Been using wamp on server 2008 awhile w/o any problem even it's free copy I posted here awhile ago

BTW, my instruction guide for asp.net for wamp 2 is based on w2k8

Anyway, in folder C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\etc, open file hosts then delete everything in this file and have only this line and nothing else

127.0.0.1 localhost

In order to access from other PC's, you need to setup Access, DNS, and VH; Access for permission to connect to your Wamp PC, DNS to tie domain(s) to your Wamp PC, and VH to host multiple domains/websites/IP's and even you have only 1 domain/website/IP, you should use VH to set it up w/ the site you want to show up first on top and localhost on bottom and others in middle if having more than 1 site; if dont have real domain, just skip DNS guide

To setup Access, follow this
