WampServer

Hi,
I installed Wamp and doesn't work.
When I try to connect to localhost and phpMyAdmin I can't beacause my browser is in continuous loading I can leave forever ...
I heard it can be from skype or TeamViewer, but these programs are not on.
It doesn't work on the pc, but on laptop it work impeccably.
Please give me some help!
Regards.

What colour is your wamp manager icon, it sits in the system tray??

It's green, but now is orange and it give me errors.

How to tell which service is not running if the wampmanager icon is orange.

Left click the wampmanager icon to reveal the menu-> Apache -> Service
If the Start resume service menu item is Green then Apache is running.

Left click the wampmanager icon to reveal the menu-> MySQL -> Service
If the Start resume service menu item is Green then MySQL is running.

If Apache is the service that is not running it is normally, but not always, because something else has captured port 80.

Now do,
Left click the wampmanager icon to reveal the menu-> Apache -> Service -> Test port 80
This will launch a command window and display some information about what, if anything is using port 80.

Whatever it is should be re-configured to not use port 80 or uninstalled if you are not using it.

If port 80 is not the problem look for errors in the appropriate error log ( use the wamp manager menus to view the error logs )

If these do not exists or show no errors then also check the Windows Event Viewer
Start -> Administrative Tools -> Event Viewer
And look in the 'Windows Logs' -> Application' section accessed from the menu on the left of the dialog for error messages from Apache and or MySQL.


How to Configure SKYPE so it does not require port 80 or 443

Run SKYPE
then using the menus do this:
Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Connection
Un-Check the checkbox next to 'Use port 80 and 443 as alternatives for incomming connections'
Now restart SKYPE for these changes to take effect.


How to Configure Team Viewer so it does not require port 80 or 443
Run TV
Extras -> Options -> Advanced -> Press the Advanced Button -> Advanced Network Connections
Check the checkbox saying [ Dont use incomming port 80 (recommended for web servers only ) ]

If the problem is not obvious then post the errors here

Hi, Maybe i can help...please open the httpd.conf in wampserver

find this onlineoflline tag and then follow that sequence.

# onlineoffline tag - don't remove
Order Deny,Allow
Allow from all


Hope that helps.

Don't forget to restart your wampserver.

This problem is caused by Windows (7) in combination with any software that also uses port 80 (like Skype or IIS (which is installed on most developer machines)). A video solution can be found here (34.500+ views, damn, this seems to be a big thing ! EDIT: The video now has ~60.000 views )

To make it short: open command line tool, type "netstat -aon" and look for any lines that end of ":80". Note thatPID on the right side. This is the process id of the software which currently usesport 80. Press AltGr + Ctrl + Del to get into the Taskmanager. Switch to the tab where you can see all services currently running, ordered by PID. Search for that PID you just notices and stop that thing (right click). To prevent this in future, you should config the software's port settings (skype can do that)
