When WAMP is installed it doesn't setup any domains. Only the address will work. localhost.localdomain needs to be setup as a virtualhost and added to the hosts file in order for it work properly. It seems the issue is more to do with Wordpress or the web address you're using. You need to be more specific with what you're doing.

Does this happen if you go to [12.0.0.1] too? (ip address equivalent to localhost). If it does what color is the wamp tray icon it should be white. If it is red/yellow then it means wamp is not running properly due to an error.

If you're using Linux you will be better off installing Apache, PHP and MySQL via your linux distros package repositories. SuPHP and SuHosin are usually installed automatically. I do not recommend you to try XAMPP or any other all in one package for linux. CentOS is the prefered OS for a Server. However you can use any linux distro of your choice.

phpMyadmin can handle any file size. The problem is with PHP. By default PHP is configured to have a file size upload limit of 2MB. To change this left click the wamp taskbar icon and go to PHP > php.ini Now find this line upload_max_filesize 2M Change 2M to a higher value for example, 10M for a limit of 10MB

SuPHP and SuHosin is for unix based systems only and is not available for Windows. Your PHP scripts will function the same on Windows as they would on your website.

There is no wrong or right way. It is up to you how you setup your sites on WAMP. However for me I prefer to setup a virtualhost for each site I work on rather than using Aliases.

You should start looking to upgrade your script so it works without register_globals. Register_globals has been disabled for years and is soon to be completely to be removed. You'll need to downgrade to PHP5.2.x. You can do this by clicking the Addons link in the menu and downloading the latest 5.2.x build.

If you have Apache, PHP and MySQL setup and running fine then there is no need for WAMP. If you want to use wamp then make sure you completely remove Apache, PHP and MySQL before you install WAMP.
