WampServer

I just upgraded to version 3.1.0 but now when I go to localhost and try to open one of my projects I get an error "can't connect to server" at my project name. This is the same for all projects, they aren't found.

Hi,

> I just upgraded to version 3.1.0
Upgrated what and how?

ou must use VirtualHost for your local sites.
See The need for Virtual Host and Wampserver 3 - Create or add a VirtualHost

Hello, I set up virtual hosts for my projects following the instructions from [forum.wampserver.com]

It is working fine for most projects but with a wordpress project I get the error:
Warning: Parameter 1 to wp_default_scripts() expected to be a reference, value given in C:\wamp\www\wordpress\wp-includes\plugin.php on line 580

Did you create the Virtual Host and then install Wordpress into the VK?

Maybe if you show us your VH Definition for this site we might be able to do more than make guesses?

I copied my old www folder to the new installation of wamp and then created virtual host.

# Virtual Hosts
#
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName localhost
ServerAlias localhost
DocumentRoot "${INSTALL_DIR}/www"
<Directory "${INSTALL_DIR}/www/">
Options +Indexes +Includes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Require local
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName wordpressGalleryOne
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/wordpress"
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/wordpress/">
Options +Indexes +Includes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Require local
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Ok,

That looks ok, are you using a different version of PHP in the new WAMPServer? And if so what ws the old version and what is the new?

Yes I did change the version of php from 5.5.12 to 7.1.9

Then it may well be that you have an old WordPress that is not ready for PHP 7.1

You can check that on the WordPress site, look for the requirements of your version of WordPress
