WampServer

RiggsFolly -- the version of PHP running on my 64-bit Wamp server is 5.6.16; the version running on my Linux server is 5;4.45. Otomatic -- you have clearly answer my question by saying that on the 64-bit Wamp server, I must be running PHP 7.x.y. Thank you both for your responses. I do appreciate your help!! Len Jacobson

I have PHP code that uses the 'Date' object. I am dealing with retirement dates, many of which are beyond January 2038 when a 4-byte time epoch won't work. The 'Date' object is supposed to work with dates beyond this limit, and, indeed, my code works perfectly fine when I run it on a Linux server. But on my 64-bit Wamp server, it doesn't work. On the Linux server, an array has an element th

Unfortunately, I spoke too quickly. I did exactly as you suggested and entered the default Port No. 8080. I expected then that if I entered a URL of "<my_test_server_domain_name>" the browser would act as if I had entered the URL "<my_test_server_domain_name>:8080". But it doesn't. I still find that I must enter the ":8080" following the domain

There is no "extension=xdebug ..." line at all in either 'php.ini' nor in 'phpForApache.ini'. I did the refresh and could not believe then what I saw when I right-clicked on the wamp icon in the SysTray and did the 'refresh'. After that, the 'php_xdebug ...' line is totally missing from the list of PHP extensions!!! Yet, the output of 'phpinfo()' is unchanged, showing 'xdebug'
Forum: WampServer English

I moved the 'xdebug' DLL file out of C:/wamp/bin/php/php5.4.33/ext/ and into C:/wamp/bin/php/php5.4.33/zend_ext/ I then changed the 'php.ini' file (and 'phpForApache.ini' file) so that the last section reads: zend_extension = "C:/wamp/bin/php/php5.4.33/zend_ext/php_xdebug-2.2.6-5.4-vc9.dll" I restarted the wamp servers.

I did download 'xdebug' from then clicked on "custom installation instructions". They then ask you paste in the output of 'phpinfo()' that was run on your server. I did that and the next page that appeared gave me explicit instructions to do the installation of 'xdebug'. They provided a link to download what they deemed to be the correct version of 'xdebug', and in my case it was

I installed wamp server 2.5 which came with PHP 5.5. I, however, need PHP 5.4 so I followed instructions that you provided me to install an older version, namely PHP 5.4.33. That installation was installed without a problem. In my php.ini file (and 'phpForApache.ini'), there was no mention of 'xdebug' until I entered the 'zend_extension' line at the bottom of the file. I have now included t
Forum: WampServer English

I thought just as you said that 'xdebug' was automatically a part of WAMP server. But after installing Wamp 2.5, I saw there was no 'xdebug'. The 'php.ini' file does not have the word "xdebug" in it. So it only appears because I added it in a "zend_extension" setting.
Forum: WampServer English

Thanks very much for this explanation. In my case, I DO have a 'zend_extension' setting at the very end of my 'php.ini' file and it does correctly point to the '.dll' file for 'xdebug'. So I don't know why the triangle appears. But thank you for responding to this issue.
Forum: WampServer English

I added 'xDebug' to my WAMP PHP environment, but I don't see a green checkmark next to 'php_xdebug' in the list of PHP extensions. Instead, I see (what I would call) a red "construction triangle" with an exclamation sign inside the triangle. What exactly does that symbol mean? When I run 'phpinfo()', the 'xdebug' section looks correct to me, AND the text, "with Xdebug v2.2.6

Sorry for the two-day delay in responding -- I needed to rebuild my computer. The suggestion to make the apache and mysql servers start up automatically was, indeed, the solution to this problem. To do that, open up the "Services" window. You can do that through the Control Panel => System and Security => Administrative Tools, and then double-click on "Services".

I am rebuilding my Windows 7 Home Premium computer and attempting to install the WAMP 2.5 32-bit server. (Prior to rebuilding this computer, this version of WAMP was installed and running fine.)

I have used the WAMP server now for several years on my Windows 7 Home Premium computer, and have installed a number of upgrades to it in that time. I have always been able to automatically start the WAMP server upon the starting of Windows.

I hope this is my last question for you on this topic. In the detailed instructions for loading another version of PHP, Paragraph 10 reads: 10. Activate your new PHP version. Using the wamp manager menus again you just need to click on the new version number to activate it. wamp manager -> PHP -> Version -> 5.5.11 ( <- or whatever the version number is you have just added

I am running the WAMP (64bits & PHP 5.5) server on my 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium desktop, and have come to the realization that I must downgrade the WAMP server I am running to be a 32-bit system with PHP 5.4. Three questions: (1) What URL will take me to a place where I can download the 32-bit PHP 5.4 WAMP server? (2) Before installing that version of WAMP server, is it correct

I do believe I modified the correct version of 'php.ini'. As evidence, when I then executed 'phpinfo()', I did see that the parameter, 'enable_dl', was now 'On'. Isn't that clear proof that I had modified the correct 'php.ini'? And, yes, I did restart the Apache server. But please answer this question: Do you believe that if the parameter, 'enable_dl', is 'On', that I should have been ab

I am using a third-party product (WHMCS) that requires the PHP function 'dl()', which dynamically loads extensions. In the PHP manual, there is a message that says "This function has been removed from some SAPIs in PHP 5.3." When I tried to execute the installation code of WHMCS, it failed with a message: "Call to undefined function dl() in ...". In the 'php.ini' file,

You are absolutely right! I think I was "smoking something" when I posted this question. I left the house right after posting it and then it hit me ... the 'system()' function could only execute a Windows function, and, as you say, 'tar' is not one of them. Thank you for responding and for giving a polite response (rather than telling me what I deserved to hear).
Forum: WampServer English

I have a line of code that invokes the 'system()' function, and the command passed to the 'system()' function is the 'tar' command. This code works perfectly when I run it on my (Linux) production server; when I run it on the 'wampserver', I get an empty file as its output. Can anyone tell me why this doesn't work and if there is a way to make it work? Thank you very much.
