WampServer

Hello!
I have installed WampServer 2 on my Windows Vista SP1, but when I want to get in my [localhost] it gives me a blank page. Does someone know how to fix this
btw I tried also WAMP5 and I get the same blank page.
Greeting Arthur

Make sure you don't any soft list here: IIS, skype, zone alarm, nod32, internet optimizer, google accelerator, ... and you already enable port in firewall. If not sure how to, check Setup LAN and Worldwide Access guide on my personal website for how to enable port in firewall

I have NOD32! so is the a workaround except turnig NOD32 off?
Greetings

I've seen a lot of people get over by uninstall both wamp and nod32, then install wamp before nod32; however, one day their wamp suddenly blocked again and they finally had to give up nod32, so I suggest that you should contact nod32's maker to have proper settings so they both can work together ;-)

artie16 in your C:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.2.8\conf around line 360 add this line

Win32DisableAcceptEx


that should help you

1. JUST open up your Nod32 window
2. Navigate to Setup> Advanced Setup Tree > Web Access Protection > HTTP > Web Browsers
3. Uncheck the default browser whoch u chose while installing WAMP, in my case iexplorer
4. enjoy!!!

got the same problem.
doenst work for me.
but at xp it works well with nod 32.

Check your hosts file. Seem to have the same problem I had with my 32bit Vista SP1. Something sets Hosts file and enteres a line ::1 localhost. Delete that line and it works.

Solved, thanks a bunch!

I had a similar problem. WAMP was purring along just fine, and then SP1 got installed and the Apache service refused to start. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling . . . nothin'. I'll try that hosts file suggestion.

apache wont start? This is not a host issue. Check for firewall upadtes that have blockewd u using port 80

Or it might install IIS, and if it did, you have to uninstall IIS in order to run wamp

Ah, thank you. Actually, the first thing I did was Google search for a site that would test my port 80 and they said it was clear . . . though I suppose that doesn't mean that there isn't some other thing taking over port 80. But SP1 definitely changed something; I rolled back SP1, reinstalled, and WAMP hummed along like it always had.

I'll check for firewall updates and IIS when I get home tonight.

Hello everyone,
I'm using vista and have the same problem mention above.
Here is how i fix it,

Right click on WAMPSERVER icon >> Apache >> httpd.conf.

Go to line 50-55 there you find

#Listen 12.34.56.78:80

Listen localhost


By default Apache is run on localhost port 80


Change it to

Listen 127.0.0.1:80


The restart the service and you will be access site through the browser like this

[127.0.0.1]


Hope this help.
Kind regards
Wilson

please do no follow wilsons way of fixing this.. this is nothing to do with the issue

127.0.0.1 will work with or with out this change.

I think is up to people to make a decission who want to use a option abouve the post.

Merci.

sorry but his post is inaccurate.

listen 127.0.01:80 will only listen to that ip.
forums should contain clear concise and helpful information, not errors. the reason for it is to help the next person who sees it.. and this solution wont help anyone



PLEASE NOTE
*********************************************************
127.0.01:80 will NOT work over networks or the internet
**********************************************************


it SHOULD be


Listen 80



it SHOULD NOT be

Listen localhost

or

Listen localhost:80







if you have

Listen 80

and it does not work then your hosts file is wrong on the pc
open the "hosts"file at c:/windows/system32/etc

and make sure it contains

127.0.0.1 localhost

and make sure it does not contain

:. 127.0.0.1

or

:. localhost

Two weird little problems that I'm trying to figure out.

1. When I try to edit hosts to delete the "::1 localhost", windows refuses to let me save the file, saying tha it can't create the file. Any idea what the issue is there?? (Vista, SP1)

2. I can load up html pages on localhost, but as soon as I try to include some simple php it gets ignored. (That is, the <?php echo " gets skipped over, and the following treated as strict html.) Any idea what I'm missing, or forgetting to do? I'm a strict newbie to this whole thing...

Thanks.
