WampServer

It would be useful to have easy way to change the Apache port when you have potential conflicts

If I want to change it manually in the httpd.conf file, WampServer is unaware of this modification so Localhost and phpMyAdmin links doesn't work any more

Hope it will be possible one day ;-)

either manually edit httpd.conf and access as localhost:port or use Florian's patch

You need to modify WAMP's configuration too when you change the Apache port. Open up wampmanager.tpl

Find line 120 to 122 which should be

Type: item; Caption: "${w_localhost}"; Action: run; FileName: "${c_navigator}"; Parameters: "http:// localhost/"; Glyph: 5
Type: item; Caption: "${w_phpmyadmin}"; Action: run; FileName: "${c_navigator}"; Parameters: "http:// localhost/phpmyadmin/"; Glyph: 5
Type: item; Caption: "${w_sqlitemanager}"; Action: run; FileName: "${c_navigator}"; Parameters: "http:// localhost/sqlitemanager/"; Glyph: 5

Change localhost to localhost:<apache port number here>. Example localhost:8080. Save the file and right click the WAMP taskbar icon and select Refresh.

NOTE: Ignore the space between http:// and localhost

Yes I did modify this file once, but it might be so much easier and more user friendly ;-)

But I guess its far from being a priority compared to PHP 5.3 in VC9

It could be more user friendly if you use the right addon..
You will see, it would be really easy to it next time
