WampServer

1 - Windows version used: Windows7 64bit
2 - Version WampServer 2.5 64bit
3 - Apache Version 2.4.9
4 - PHP Version 5.5.12
5 - MySQL Version 5.6.17
6 - Orange

I downloaded the package, and came into trouble with it running because i needed msvcr110.dll, so i installed it. mysql works, but when i try to open phpmyadmin, it opens a new tab in google chrome, and i get the following message :
this web page is not available
Google Chrome's connection attempt to localhost was rejected. The website may be down, or your network may not be properly configured.

Im not sure what to do, i have read a few forums and i cannot find the answer. ive stopped all services, and started again, ive put online and offline again. ive uninstalled and reinstalled....im at a loss, can someone please help me.

i tried all of that before i made this post. so with that being said, do you have any more ideas?

Ah yes sorry,

Well you mention that the wampmanager icon is Orange.

This means that one of the services Apache(wampapache) or MySQL(wampmysqld or wampmysqld64) have not started.

I think we can assume it is Apache that has not started as you say MySQL is working.

It could be a number of things but first lets make sure you have all the required MSVC Runtimes installed, see this post and note that you need the MSVC 2008(32bit) runtime installed as well as the 64bit one as wampmanager.exe is a 32bit app and uses that runtime even on 64bit Windows.


I note you do not mention the answers to 6(a) or 6(d) so have you looked at the WINDOWS EVENT VIEWER for message from APACHE? If so what were they? If not please do and tell us what they say if you cannot work out what is wrong yourself!
