WampServer

I changed the port number for apache to 8080 and can access pages just fine from the browser using localhost:8080 as the host. However, when I open the WAMP5 utility from the system tray and click on either localhost or phMyAdmin items in the resulting popup menu, it still attempts to find the server at the default port 80 location which, of course, fails.

Is there a way to change these two lines in the popup menu so that they use the port number on which Apache is listening?

I would be interested in the answer to this too.

The problem is that in your computer, there is a software e.g "gaming online software" or a program that is taking the incoming traffic from port 80, you need to make sure that any program that has to access the internet might be blocking the this port. check also your mail server if you have one like microsoft outlook, turn them all off. and restart your wamp server.

Mail servers use port 25, and will not cause any problems with apache or mysql

you need to edit the wampserver.ini file, and change all http://localhost to http://localhost:8080 .now when you click on those links in the WAMP menu, they will use port 8080

C:\wamp\wampserver.ini
