WampServer

Hi,
I use ISS as well as WAMP. I cannot use port 80 thanks to ISS, and so I switched the port in the httpd config file to 8080. However this goes to my ISS homepage. Anyone know any other ports I can use?

8080 is ok but you need to wrtite http ://localhost:8080

Unfortunately, I cannot use 80 OR 8080.....is there any other ports I can use?

IIS does not use port 8080.


but anyway just pick a number and use it

81
82
83

8081
8082
8083 etc etc

I didn't think ISS was on port 8080, but it redirects to port 80 (my company does that as a policy thing) so I can't use it. So if I said use port 422 in the dhtml file for apache, what do I need to change so I can use both ISS and Wamp and the same time. Can I have wamp use [localhost1] and ISS use [localhost] if I do swtich the dhttp on the wamp apache to port 422 (or any other random number)?

If you are using any port other than 80 , the port number must be specified at the end of the URL.

Try to use a port such as 8081 or above.

442 will be used for something else.


to access IIS you will use http ://localhost

to access Wamp you will use http ://localhost:8081


Microsoft did not include ports into their hosts file configuration so you cannot map a URL to a different port

Out of curisoity, If I go into "services" and stop the ISS service, can I then start the wampApache service and then just alternate the stop and start as needed?

usually this works with other programs but IIS is a huge program , many parts of windows can be integrated into it. such as SQL error reporting and spoolers for printing

there is not 1 service for IIS

IIS must be uninstalled using the Features Section of add/remove programs


There is two things you can try however...

open the IIS Control Panel and stop the site , port 80 should become free.

or

stop the server

WebDeploy - as this uses port 80
