No Virtual Hosts.

HOSTS file [c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts] content:

# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host

# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost

127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 localhost

Hi Paul,

Just a guess here but try adding changing your HOSTS file to

127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost

Hi Riggs,
I added ::1 localhost to the hosts file, but unfortunately the problem is the same: WAMP seems to be stared correctly. bu the projects doesn't work.

Maybe the Virtual Host definition is mandatory with Windows 8.2 and WAMP 2.5?

Any ther guess?

Thanks

Hi Riggs,
maybe this helps: if I use the standard WAMP interface it tries to connect to

"[MYPROJECT"]; (obviously MYPROJECT is a sample name)

and it doesn't work, but if I manually use

"localhost/MYPROJECT"

it works.

Hi Paul,

Read this it explains what is happening and what to do. WAMPServer 2.5 The Homepage, Your Projects Menu and the need for Virtual Hosts

Hi Riggs,
at the moment I am not able to run VirtualHosts, according to -WAMPServer 2.5 The Homepage, Your Projects Menu and the need for Virtual Hosts- article, but I solved my issue using the "WAMPServer 2.5 release notes and corrections" article, so I can work in the previous old method using localhost instead of Virtual Hosts.
I'll try again with Virtual Host in the next days.

Thanks and best regards
