WampServer

Good day,

I'm using wampserver 2.5 64-bit on a laptop running Windows Win 8.1 Pro 64-bit.
Wamp, php my admin and local host runs fine, but as soon as I install Worpress and login to the admin panel, I can see pages, posts, but cannot save changes or create new pages. When I do the exact same installation on a live server I have no problems.

When I use the Cherry data importer on the local site it also says:

"some of your server settings do not meet the requirements for installing the sample data. Please, consult with your hosting provider on how to increase the required values. post_max_size (Mb) current=3 and required=8".

I've tried increasing this, but I'm obviously doing something wrong as it does not seem to work.

So I'm not sure whether the creation and saving of pages are related to the requirements for installing sample data, but would appreciate your assistance. What am I missing?

Thank you.

Regards
Dawie

Hi Dawie,

My guess is that you are editing the wrong php.ini, there are 2.

Use the wampmanager menu to make sure you are editing the correct one

wampmanager -> PHP -> php.ini

This will edit \wamp\bin\php\php{version}\phpForApache.ini


The \wamp\bin\php\php{version}\php.ini is used by the PHP CLI (Command Line Interface) only.
