WAMP activation

hi,
I have installed WAMP 2.0, but I cannot make it work.
It stays offline, and when I try to access "[localhost"]; I get the IIS homepage.

I created a index.php file and put it in the www root directory and tried to access
it via "localhost/index.php" then I got "The page cannot be found" answer.

what should I do? is it a configuration issue?

10x,
Miki

IIS and apache/wamp are both web server and both use port 80, so you have to disable iis in order for wamp to work

Disable IIS in Vista:

Uninstall Programs, Turn Widows Features On or Off, uncheck Internet Information Services

Disable IIS in XP:

Add/Remove Programs, Add/Remove Windows Components, uncheck Internet Information Services (IIS)

Restart computer, then restart wamp

1. the color is Yellow
2. can I change the port configuration instead of removing IIS? or just disable it?
3. where can I see the relevant errors, is there any log file?

yes change the port to 8080


open up ur httpd.conf file


at c:wamp\bin\apache\apache\bin


and change

listen 80

to
listen 8080






and down further

change servername


localhost:80


to

localhost:8080






to go to wamps local page u use localhost:8080 in broswer

iis will be on localhost or localhost:80

Yes, but you might have conflict alter since both are webservers. Anyway, just change listen 80 to 81 or 8080 in file config.httpf and restart wamp

hi,
I have removed IIS + restart, but I still cannot start WAMP, the color is partially White,
partially Yellow.

Is there any log file that I can look into to see where is the problem?
Is there any manual I read?
