WampServer

Hello,

Sometimes when I restore a WordPress backup to my localhost WAMP everything goes fine until the SQL rename of the url has occurred. then when I try to browse to the site I get an error saying firewall issues etc. When really whats going on is that its trying to browser to https.


I have set up a Virtual Host for my C2C site. and using the BackupBuddy installer, Importbuddy I'm able to browse to [c2c] and complete the installation.

When I try to browse to c2c it instead tries to browse to [c2c]

Does anyone know why? and what I can do about this?

Thank you.

John.

Are you using Chrome?
If so does the issue happen with Firefox?

Hello @RiggsFolly,

Yes it does. I can perform the entire install using Chrome then try to browse to the path (http://c2c) using Firefox and it does exactly the same thing.


I thought the routing might have changed. when I check my hosts file in Windows it looks the same:

127.0.0.1 c2c
::1 c2c

Ok lets start again.

Can you answer these questions [forum.wampserver.com]
