When I remove # Use PHP5 as default, this is what I get: "Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Yes, it is the same, except that C:/wamp/www/1xxxx.net/ actually refers to the website name, so C:/wamp/www/sitename.net/. I should mention that this entire site was downloaded to my local machine from the net, after my programmer did some extensive work on the actual site. Would this have anything to do with it?

Hi, please see the .htaccess file above, that I posted yesterday. Thanks!

I removed the AddHandler, but now I get a 500 Internal Server Error.

Thanks, guys! My simple 'hello world' php script works again! I can also pull up html pages without problems. Howerver, my actual php sites will not resolve - I get a dialog box that is trying to open the site as a file. I may be wrong, but could it have something to do with my .htaccess, as seen here: Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine On RewriteRule page_(.*)$ landing_pages/index.php?

Hi guys, I had my brother-in-law visiting for the holiday weekend and he "borrowed" my laptop for extensive use. Ever since then, my WampServer will just not work anymore. My tray icon is grey & white, and my apache error file reads: The Alias directive in C:/wamp/alias/phpmyadmin.conf at line 1 will probably never match because it overlaps an earlier Alias.

When I try to run some of my sites, I get this message: "Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete." Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks. Gerry

I had changed the from 8080 to port 80 as Steven suggested, and I copied and pasted everything above into phpmyadmin.conf. I am able to pull up the files using localhost and also 127.0.0.1. The only thing that seems to be not working now is opening phpmyadmin. Thanks.

Here's what's happening now: - I added a new directory directory and file - wamp/www/test1/phptest.php - with my "hello world" script , that came up fine, so it seems like a directory name with a "-" or other character will cause problems - I have restarted the services and now phpmyadmin will not open anymore.

Thanks for the advice. I am running XP Pro - SP2.

YES!!! That fixed it! Now everything works! Thanks again, Steven! One last issue (I hope): In localhost>My Projects, when I click on the project listed there, "abc-march08", I get the following error message: The page isn't redirecting properly Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. *

Hmmm....after making the changes in phpmyadmin.conf, the wamp icon is now yellow, and no connection is possible.

Steven, that is exactly what I had, in fact, just to be sure, I copied and pasted what you have, and it still doesn't work. Thanks.

the error is: 403 forbidden - You don't have permission to access /phpmyadmin/ on this server.

I finally managed to gain access to my localhost, and now I realise that I can't access phpmyadmin. I have followed the instructions at , but it still didn't work. SQLiteManager come up without any problems. Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Steven, I reset the localhost to port 8080 and restarted all services and it works!!!! I think that part of the problem was that I had wamp looking looking in the wrong place for the file, since contact.php is actually located at: C:\wamp\www\abc-march08\contact.php. All along, like a klutz, I had been typing in //localhost/contact.php, but when I did //localhost:8080/abc-march08/contact.php, I

Yes, I am sure that it is contact.php, it is from a working website. My entire site is php. I did the 'hello world' script in notepad, saved it as php, with file type = All Files, and it worked before, but not now. At this point should I consider reinstalling wamp?

Yes, a few years ago I manually installed all three wamp components, but I uninstalled all of them after some time. More recently, I reinstalled wamp to my d: partition and since it didn't work, I reinstalled to my c: partition, where it is now. No, I have not gone into the registry to manually uninstall anything.
