Hello all and thanks for taking time to read about my problem.

I had no issues installing WAMP and 2.5 and creating a new website. However, When i try to do a new install the localhost will only access the 1st webpage i did.
All the databases are created for the new one and Joomla is in the new directory waiting to be installed.
Where did i go wrong?
Should i have created a folder in the www directory for the 1st site? The new project is www/site2 and the original is www/templates.

You will need to setup a virtual host for each site.

Have a search here for virtual host there are a few

try this one [forum.wampserver.com] to get you started

Just create individual folders under the www dirctory. Install joomla into these folders.

ie.

www/site1

www/site2

then localhost/site1 or locahost/site2
