Hi,
To All, I am having a problem with wamp in my windows 8. Earlier I was using wamp 2 and suddenly it stated showing "The connection has timed out". I had followed several suggestion to get rid of that problem but never succeed. Then also wamp icon was green but problem never fixed for wampserver 2. Then I decided to install wamp in another drive. I have downloaded wampserver 3 and necessary required files. It was smooth everything during the install. The wamp icon is coming green but when I try to run localhost it is showing "The connection has timed out".

One thing I can say that skype is not culprit because that is not using port 80. I'm just wondering why suddenly it stopped working because that localhost was working on my same computer since two years.

So there is something which is causing the issue. You expert can fix the issue only.

Thanks and Warm Regards,
Md Sahel Aktar.
