I changed it to use 8080.
I try to log in at this location: [
localhost]
I hit submit and am taken to this page:
[
localhost]
...and the error in the browser is this:
Google Chrome's connection attempt to localhost was rejected. The website may be down, or your network may not be properly configured.
Here are some suggestions:
Reload this webpage later.
Check your Internet connection. Restart any router, modem, or other network devices you may be using.
Add Google Chrome as a permitted program in your firewall's or antivirus software's settings. If it is already a permitted program, try deleting it from the list of permitted programs and adding it again.
If you use a proxy server, check your proxy settings or contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working. If you don't believe you should be using a proxy server, adjust your proxy settings: Go to the wrench menu > Options > Under the Hood > Change proxy settings... > LAN Settings and deselect the "Use a proxy server for your LAN" checkbox.
Two things are strange to me here. One, why is it https, and where did my :8080 go in the URL?
Now on day four of trying to get WordPress installed and running locally with WampServer.... PLEASE HELP!!!
