WampServer

When I go to local host I see the message. Directory Listing Denied
This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed.

Following instruction in a recent post. For people how have a problem with localhost
go to run and type cmd.exe
then type
C:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.2.8\bin\httpd.exe
or whatever yours is
and read the errors.

I did that

How do I see the ports and what's on them. How do I go about allowing particular things. I searched internet option, windows firewall, and all over.

just switch apache to work on port 8080 first to see it that worlks. Goto c:/wamp/bim/apache/apache/conf open httpd.conf and chamge listen 80 to listen 8080 then retstart wwamp and see if it goes white

At least it's not red any more, but it is yellow. So something is still wrong.

yes mysql is not running now...

it looks like uv another server installed.. probably microsof iis. ur best to disable this. ul find some setting in control panel or on the start menu under asministraion


u can also change mysqls port number...


its in c:/wamp/bin/mysql in a file called my or my.ini

the port is 3306

its written in the file 3 times

change hem all to 3307




please note i recommend disabling the other server and using the orginal wamp setup.

First I turned off ISS. That didn't fix it so I changed the number as well. Now I try to run a php file and I get an error message saying: Unable to connect

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost.

* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.

* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.

* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

I tried typing into the browser the address you gave and It does a search and displays a bunch of results. If I go to the wamp icon and click on local host I get the same error message printed above. I am totally lost now.

u didnt type it in right,,,


h t t p : / / l o c a l h o s t : 8 0 8 0 / t h e n a m e o f y o u r p h p f i l e . p h p


localhost:8080/yourphpfile.php

take out all the spaces and change t h e n a m e o f y o u r p h p f i l e to the name of urs


if it doesnt work u shud get wat u got before. not a search

[localhost] is what I put in. It's supposed to display information about php but instead I get a blank page.

I tried index.php now I get something and can go to phpinfio in that file. But why didn't the one I added work?

a blank page is different to a 404 error page created by the browser.


is the wamp icon definitlty white?

go into ur httpd.conf file again



down futher there is a section


Servername localhost


change it to

Servername localhost:8080


clear ur browser history restart wamp and try it again

did u just make a blank file called phpinfo.php?



there needs to be stuff in this file .. phpinfo.php is in the folder i think with wamp as default

Maybe part of it is an off white.

I changed the server name.

The file is not blank. it has the code <? phpinfo(); ?> in it. It still appears blank.

this is wrong

use

<?php phpinfo(); ?>



u need to enable short tags for urs to work

To add to Steven's suggestion, edit this line in httpd.conf

Find:
listen 80

Change to:
listen 8080

Save file, restart wamp, then try:
"[];
"[localhost];
