WampServer

I recently installed WampServer64 because I decided to reset my PC 'cause it had a virus and It needed a reset anyway. I downloaded all the Visual C/C++ Redistributes that it linked and I got it successfully working, the "new" update looks amazing compared to the old one (by this, I mean layout). Here's what it looks like: [i.imgur.com] . My other PC (the one viewing the website) says "You don't have permission to access / on this server." which means I must press Set Online but I can't because the button is missing (or can't find it). So, where did it go?

WampServer 3 has changed a little in this area.

It now comes with a Virtual Host setup for localhost and therefore the function of the `Put Online/Offline` menu is no longer relevant.

Instead apply the WAMPServer 3.0.6 upgrade (non destructive, it just updates wWAMPServer code and nothing else) from her [wampserver.aviatechno.net] or SourceForge

Then you will have a menu item to automatically edit the httpd-vhosts.conf file where this Virtual Host is configured in the wampmanager -> Apache -> httpd-vhosts.conf


In there you should amend the `Require local` to `Require from all`

NOTE: It is a better idea to put your projects in a subfolder of `\wamp\www\` or even another folder completely eg `C:\websrc\project1\www` and define a Virtual Host for that site in this file as well. Then you leave localhost as your wampserver homepage and it always remains accessible only locally. You then make your real site available any way you like.

See this The Need For Virtual Hosts for a bit of assistance with the concept of Virtual Hosts

Thanks for the response, but sadly I followed your instructions and now Apache is not starting. I changed the httpd-vhosts.confg line from "Require localhost" to "Require from all" and now I am getting this error log from Apache: [url]http://hastebin.com/lecaverixu.sm[/url] . Here's my httpd-vhosts.conf file: [url]http://hastebin.com/vexadosiju.xml[/url] . WampServer went orange on startup then took a second, went red, then is staying on orange. Any help?

Hi,

> from "Require localhost" to "Require from all"
Sorry, it is not "Require from all" but "Require all granted" (Without the quotes).

You might also check the Apache documentation, links are in signing RiggsFolly and mine. Directive Require

Documentation Apache - Documentation PHP - Documentation MySQL - Wampserver install files & addons

Woops

Sorry about that, minor brain fade.
