WampServer

hai,
i installed wamp server in my system, but i tried run using localhost but i am getting error "Directory Listing Denied. This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed." how to run it properly, i have already installed mysql and tomcat5.5 separetly in my sytem should i remove that?

Pls help me its very urgent.

It's conflicted because wamp includes mysql, so you might want to remove the old one before install this wamp

Actually I would like to have "Directory Listing Denied. This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed." but by default WAMPS makes the directory browsable, I'm familiat with IIs but not Apache, which setting do I need to use to make that happen?

While I'm at it, is there a way to use WAMPS PHP/MYSQL features with IIs instead of Apache ?

TIA

To prevent directory listing, either put the index file (index.html or index.php) in wamp/www/your_folder or change the index option in config file from + to -; for example:

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName test
DocumentRoot C:/wamp/www/Test
ErrorLog c:/wamp/www/Test/logs/test_error.log
CustomLog c:/wamp/www/test/logs/test_access.log common
<Directory "C:/wamp/www/Test">
Options -Indexes
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Remember, this is just an example, not a complete working code

Don't install wamp, but install php and mysql add-on for iis; however, I like to use wamp than iis

Thanks a bunch, in the meantime I found i could have an .htaccess file with Options -Indexes in it to prevent directory listing.

On a related matter, I was wanting to add a password to protect the
\www\maps directory but I seem to be having an odd problem with "Internal Server Error" event though I followed a tutorial to create a .htaccess and .htpasswd file I'm thinking I maybe have the path wrong :

"AuthUserFile /maps/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName "Private"
AuthType Basic

<Limit GET>
require valid-user
</Limit>"

I tried with /www/maps/.htpasswd but same problem

Am I missing something obvious ?

TIA

You have to provide full path there
