WampServer

Usually use /localhost/phpmyadmin/ to get there. However I also like to use it via the WAMP menu item when clicking on phpMyAdmin there.

However I get following error:

Aestan Tray Menu:
Could not execute menu item (internal error)
[Exception] Could not execute run action:
The directory name is invalid

I assume I need to change something in wampmanager.tpl?

Thanks for any help with this.

Regards
Frank

What if anything have you changed from the default config.

Also was apache running when you tried to access phpMyAdmin?

In httpd.conf I have deleted the comment # from rewrite_module and from vhost_alias_module.

In wampmanager.tpl I don't think I have changed anything.

Here is a pastebin of wampmanager.tpl pastebin.com/x3F3Wz1K

Anything else you need to know from my part?

Thank you for your help.

Oh and I also did this change to wampmanager.tpl outlined in the VirtualHost sticky:


====
How do I turn this other 'My Virtual Hosts' menu on?
This may be a little premature but I suppose now is as good a time as any to tell you that.

- Make a backup of the \wamp\wampmanager.tpl file, just in case you make a mistake, its a very important file.
- Edit the \wamp\wampmanager.tpl
- Find this parameter ';WAMPPROJECTSUBMENU', its in the '[Menu.Left]' section.
- Add this new parameter ';WAMPVHOSTSUBMENU' either before or after the ';WAMPPROJECTSUBMENU' parameter.
- Save the file.
- Now left click the wampmanager icon, and select 'Refresh'. If this does not add the menu, 'exit' and restart wampmanager.
====

Besides that I left it untouched.

Thank you.

I checked and unfortunately I also get this error also when trying the following menu items:

- My Virtual Hosts (for localhost as well as for the vhosts I have listed the error message comes up
when I click the "# match a or ServerAlias in any <VirtualHost> block." menu item the error message also comes up)

When I click the menu item
- My Projects (no error is given and nothing happens)


Reading this
========
'My Projects' will list any sub directory of the \wamp\www directory and provide a link to launch the site in that sub directory.
As I said earlier, it launches 'project1` and not 'localhost/project1' so to make the link work we must create a Virtual Host definition to make this link actually launch that site in your browser, without the Virtual Host definition it's likely to launch a web search for the site name as a keyword or just return a site not found condition.
========

and not having any projects in the \wamp\www dir I assume this is why nothing is shown. How do I make a Virtual Host definition that leads from c\wamp\www to my projects folder d\web projects\www ? I have a virtual host definition in httpd-vhost.conf and that works great, however I am not sure how to "link" c\wamp\www to d\web projects\www?

Should I try and get a default wampmanager.tpl file from somewhere? Do you have one? Or can I simply change a few lines and the errors will be gone?

All this is not super urgent as I can live without clicking the menu items and simply go to the url in the browser, however it would be neat to have to working and knowing how to fix it.

Thank you.

Best Regards
Frank

Frank,

Read this [forum.wampserver.com] ... all of this. At the bottom there is a section called Now if you take this to its logical extension when you get there it shouls help you do the Virtual Host in any drive/folder you like.

Read that many times and will continue to read it many times for sure.

Will that also fix the broken menu item phpMyAdmin?

As far the vhost definitions go I will try and get it right, but linking the menu item to phpMyAdmin also works this way?

This is my current vhost definition and that works like a charm with all the web projects and the defined vhost also come up in the My Projects menu item, however when I click it, it throws the error.

 <VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www"
    ServerName localhost
    ServerAlias localhost
    <Directory  "c:/wamp/www">
    	AllowOverride All
	Require local
	Require ip 192.168.188
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "D:/Web Projects/WWW"
    ServerName workbench.webdev
    ServerAlias www.workbench.webdev
	
    ErrorLog "D:/Web Projects/WWW/Logs/workbench-apache.error.log"
    CustomLog "D:/Web Projects/WWW/Logs/workbench-apache.access.log" common	

    <Directory "D:/Web Projects/WWW">
	AllowOverride all
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks

    	<IfDefine APACHE24>
    		Require local
    		Require ip 192.168.188
		</IfDefine>

		<IfDefine !APACHE24>
			Order Deny,Allow
				Deny from all
				Allow from 127.0.0.0/8 localhost ::1 192.168.188
		</IfDefine>

    </Directory>
	
	php_flag log_errors on
    php_flag display_errors on
    php_value error_reporting 2147483647
    php_value error_log "D:/Web Projects/WWW/Logs/workbench-php.error.log"
</VirtualHost>

So despite reading the linked post, that I also have in my signature, I am not really sure if I adding something more to the vhost definition will fix the error.

For example I have localhost working fine in the browser, though when clicking the menu item it throws that error. I think it did throw that error from the beginning onwards but since I did not really mind I left it as it was.

I will go over this and see if I can fix this somehow, though I think this could have something to do with wampmanager.tpl somehow.

Thank you for your help!!

Frank,

phpMyAdmin is run as an Alias and not a Virtual Host

Just checking, when you did this

- Find this parameter ';WAMPPROJECTSUBMENU', its in the '[Menu.Left]' section.
- Add this new parameter ';WAMPVHOSTSUBMENU' either before or after the ';WAMPPROJECTSUBMENU' parameter.

You did put these 2 intems on seperate lines like this right?

;WAMPVHOSTSUBMENU
;WAMPPROJECTSUBMENU

Not like this

;WAMPVHOSTSUBMENU;WAMPPROJECTSUBMENU

Indeed they are on THE SAME line.

This means I am THE super noob right?

Here is the wampmanager.tpl file pasted as it is now.

Hi,

To avoid problem, don't use space in path as space is a delimiter between parameters in CLI.
