WampServer

Hello,

I am using Wamp on different machines with Windows 10 Pro (installed on macbookpro with bootcamp) but now I have a strange issue with Wamp 2.4 64 bit (MySQL 5.6.12) on Win 10 Pro/Home (licenced).
- installed all Visual C++ packages
- run check_vcredist which says Äll VC++ packages needed for wampserver are installed correctly
- install WampServer as administrator in C:\wamp (clean install)
- run wampserver as administrator
result:
- tray icon is yellow
- wampapache service is running
- wampmysqld in not running

What I have tried:
- stop all services, delete files ib_logfile0, ib_logfile1, ib_data1, restart the services. No result
- make sure I have only one line 127.0.0.1 localhost
- IIS stoped
- adding innodb_flush_method=unbuffered in my.ini - no result
- adding innodb_flush_method=normal - no result


MySQL log looks as following:

2018-02-24 11:01:57 3536 [Note] Plugin 'FEDERATED' is disabled.

What else can I do?

Thank you!

Hi,

Wampserver 2.4 is no longer supported for a long time!

Is the disk on which Wampserver is installed properly formatted NTFS?

Suppose the letter assigned to the disk on which Wampserver is installed is C:
Open a command window "as administrator" (The word "administrator" must be in the title bar of the window.
In this window type the command:

fsutil fsinfo ntfsinfo c:

What is the result of this command?

Yes, I know is an old version but I have two productive machines running this version and is hard to change the version...

This is the result:

Hi,

Bytes Per Sector  :                4096
Bytes Per Physical Sector :        4096

This is a factory formatted 4K Native type disc. (4KN)
MySQL does not work on this type of disk, only on 512 Native (512N - Bytes per sector 512, Bytes Per Physical Sector 512) or 512 Extended (512E - Bytes per sector 512, Bytes Per Physical Sector 4096).
Microsoft has made the necessary corrections for MySQL Server, but MySQL has still not done anything to make it work, even on recent versions (4.7.21 for example).

It may work with the latest versions of MariaDB, but since you are using Wampserver 2.4, you cannot install Wampserver 3 addons.

Thank you very much!
I could not imagine this reason...

My temp solution is to use a 64GB USB flash drive where I installed Wamp. It works so far and hopefully I will not crash something and I wont have performance issues.
