WampServer

System: windows 2000

I have been running php/mysql for a number years successfully but have just upgraded to wamp 1.7.3 and although it installs OK and all services run it comes up with
<-------
Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /phpmyadmin/ on this server.
------->
for phpmyadmin and sqlite admin

all the Apache error log shows is

<-------
client denied by server configuration: D:/wamp/phpmyadmin/
----->

any ideas?

seems due to the apache 2.2.4 bug *on win 2000* :
REMOTE_ADDR is always 0.0.0.0 so *any* ip check/allow for 127.0.01 fails.
I had to downgrade to 2.2.3.

Thank you very much for this information.
With a bit more research the suggestion is to
add -- Win32DisableAcceptEx -- string to httpd.conf file.

I haven't tried this yet but will do so as soon as I get back onto the 2000 machine.

Apache are due to release a patch for this bug later this year.

>add -- Win32DisableAcceptEx -- string to httpd.conf file.

don't do that - you'll get severe memory leaks

to just make phpmyadmin working you could remove "deny from all"
and use auth_type = 'http';//or 'cookie' in your phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
to restrict other users.

I also encountered the 0.0.0.0 problem on my 2000 server. Could somebody explain in a bit more detail how I can restrict other user from phpmyadmin? Using auth_type = 'http';//or 'cookie' in your phpmyadmin/config.inc.php ...

:-( I' rather new to WAMP :-)

Apache 2.2.5 which corrects the Windows 2000 bug is now available for download at

(I have not tried this yet but will do so later this week)
