WampServer

Hi

I have just downloaded this, double clicked the icon and nothing. I get a small icon in the bottom right corner that does nothing when I either right click it or double left click it.

Anyone help?

Check setup guides on my website

All set up and running, but the icon is 3 quarters yellow. Should it not be green or something with the arrow right down?

Setting up a databse with your Guide, very easy and straight forward but when I expect to see that it does not show that I have no privilesges to start a new database. At the bottom I get this

Cannot load mcrypt extension. Please check your PHP configuration.

as an error message.

Did you get the screen exactly like the illustrated pictures when you performed step 14 and 15?

I uninstalled WAMP and then re-installed it, literally letter by letter. I added the php.mycrypt extension and still does not prevent any privileges.

The icon still is yellow. I have followed the Guides to the letter but still without any success with these.

Are you running skype as well ? Cos skype was causing me these problems ...

I have disabled Skype as I read that earlier that it does cause problems. If this is the main cause then I would willingly get rif of it as it is a pile of the brown smelly stuff, and this will be the perfect reason!

can you please post up ur mysql_error.log and apach_error


from the folder

c:/wamp/logs


this will let me see wats happening

mysql.log (there is not one that reads 'error')

I must say I am mightily impressed with the speed of responses, well impressed!!

looks like you have another mysql service running. first press cntrl alt del and check for how many

mysqd-nt servies are running..


if there is only one

then goto start> run> type in cmd

cmd will open

type in

netstat -a

this will show u what is running on wat port
check if there is anything else running on port 3306(its hte left column last number ie xx..xxx.x.x.:3306)

Only one mysqd-nt running.

netstat -a, apparently there is not recognised as an internal or external command.

watversion of windows are u using????? it shud be


netstat -a

there is a space between t and -a

I tried both versions with and without a gap.

I am running Windows XP with Service Pack 2

thats insane,..


try just

netstat

This is what came up

In between your replies I have been playing and I have deleted MYSQL 5.0 that I installed the other day as it weas recommended and now the icon is white with the pointer horizontal. But I cannot log on.

seems very short. post me up a copy of ur my.ini file


in
c:/wamp/bin/mysql/mysql/my.ini

lol so you did have too copies!!

ok

are u talking about phpmyadmin wont log in?

phpmyadmin, yes. As an after thought I exited WAMP and restarted and the icon is back to 3 quarters and yellow, so, I don't know.

I honestly did not think that MySQL was going to cause an issue but that just proves what I know, nowt!

shut down the services. in task manager. make sure ur mysql is ending then try again,,,

post up ur phpmyadmin error. need the numbers.... 1006 2005..error etc
