WampServer

Hello RiggsFolly,

Wishing you a good day from Germany!

On trying to access PHPMyAdmin, Localhost, Virtualhost Management I get an error:

Error: Could not execute menu item (internal error)
[Exception]. Could not execute run action:
%1 is not a valid Win32 application.

Any advice?

Hi,

- Verify that all VC ++ packages are installed and with the latest versions.
To do this, use the tool:
Checks VC++ packages installed
Do not use a previously loaded tool. Make a new download to make sure you are using the correct version.
To download missing packages, do not rely on Microsoft links, they are not reliable, download packages on http://wampserver.aviatechno.net in section Visual C++ Redistribuable Packages
Do not forget that if you have a 64 bit Windows, you must install both 32 and 64 bit versions of each package.
You must install each package "as an administrator", so right-click the exe file and then run as Administrator.

- If it is not already done, apply Update 3.1.9 to your version of Wampserver
Wampserver update 3.1.9

Thank you for the information.

I installed the missing Visual C++ Redistributable Packages and updated the WAMP installation, started and it installed the services and showed the green wamp icon. Updated to WampServer Version 3.1.9 64bit.


Unfortunately, the error is same as before for access to PHPMyAdmin, Localhost, Virtualhost Management.

Any other solution..

Hi,

Everything is x64, so I don't understand the error message: %1 is not a valid Win32 application.

Could you copy here the first sixteen lines of the file wampmanager.conf

Here it goes:

Hi,

> navigator ="C:/ProgramData\Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Firefox Developer Edition.lnk"
It is not an executable file, hence the error!
I think it should be with the path to firefox.exe file as for Chrome.

In addition, it is well indicated: ;(Use / instead of \) but you left an antislash \ in the complete path

In other addition, commented line must begin by ; not by #

Thank you Otomatic,
Yes, that was the cause of the error.
Fixed it and it is working again, smoothly!

Cool regards,

(it's going to be 40 C tomorrow!)

Hi,

Why it is not possible to use hash mark # as a comment in the configuration files ?

To parse a configuration file, we use the php instruction "parse_ini_file()" and, since PHP 5.3.0 hash marks (#) should no longer be used as comments and will throw a deprecation warning if used and, since PHP 7.0.0 hash marks (#) are no longer recognized as comments.
