Hi I have just left a message on pampserver and am unsure if it is live... there seems to be many spam posts on there and as you have not deleted them I was wondering if you actually maintain the site...

please post here...

im currently not maitaining the forum due to a site change soon

sorry


as written on the homepage. We now build wampserver in 64 bit so no need to use pampserver for now

its most likely the hosts file


in c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts


delete EVERYTHING in the file and just add 1 new line

127.0.0.1     localhost

My config inc was directing the page to localhost, not 127.0.0.1

It should be pointing to localhost

and you should be typing in localhost

but anyway

Say to people delete all and just put one line can hurt if the people don't know what they are doing.
Also, pointing the mysql connections to 127.0.0.1 loopback IP is better and quicker than use the localhost redirect, even if it's necessary or used by any other program.

MySQL slow connection from localhost is a know issue.
