The PHP configuration loaded file ...

Hi Everybody,

If I run the index.php file in the WAMP64/WWW directory, I see the followinmg error:

The PHP configuration loaded file is: c:/wamp64/bin/php/php7432xd/php.ini - should be: c:/wamp64/bin/apache/apache2.4.62.1/bin/php.ini or c:/wamp64/bin/php/php8.3.14/phpforapache.ini
You must perform: Right-click icon Wampmanager -> Refresh

If I do that, there doesn't appear to be any change.

How can I adjust?

Many Thanks,
Paul

(If I wasn't so stupid, I wouldn't have to be so persistent)

Hi,

Does the directory c:/wamp64/bin/php/php7432xd/ exists ?

Hi,

- Exit Wampserver
- Open a command window as an administrator
Using the CD command, navigate to:
CD /D C:\wamp64\bin\apache\apache2.4.62.1\bin\

Type:
DEL /Q /AL *.*

We'll have to think about upgrading to Apache 2.4.65!

Configuring VirtualHosts on WampServer can definitely be a bit tricky the first time you set it up. If you're still having trouble with the syntax or just want to double-check that your file paths are formatted correctly, I've found that using a quick online text or code formatter can help spot any small typos that might be causing the error. It's a nice way to make sure the config is clean before restarting the services.

I'm a bit surprised by this request!

In fact, on the Add a Virtual Host page:
- The syntax of the "Name of the Virtual Host" field is validated and rejected if it does not conform to the standards.
- the path for the Complete absolute path of the VirtualHost folder is also checked and rejected if it does not exist;
- you can only add FCGI mode if an existing PHP version is present;
- you can only add a Listen Port other than 80 if it already exists as an Apache Listen Port;

What more are you asking for?
