WampServer

I just did a small project using Joomla 1.5 and it worked using Apache 2.2.22 PHP 5.3.17 MySQL 5.5.24 Your problem is probably that the recent versions of Apache/PHP and MySQL were compiled with VC9 and previous versions were compiled with VC6. And of course they are not compatible. If you really want to go back as far as you tried you have to switch all 3 to an old version together

Read the rest of the manual around the page you mention. Namely the one that says ID3 is a PECL extension. This means it is not part of the standard PHP release but is something somebody wrote to interface with PHP but has not been accepted as a standard part of PHP yet/if ever. It seems a little hard to find but this may help

Nothing is wrong! I assume somebody else did the setup at work. By default wamp comes with a secure configuration so beginners dont get hacked. On 'Box A' the box with Wamp installed you will need to either: 1. 'Put Online' using the wampmanager icon menu. This will change the security for your developed sites to allow access from anywhere. Then do 2. as well OR

Ok i answered before you added the link for your apache error log. You have installed wamp into Program Files. This is not recomended as bits of ot dont like the space in the directory name. The install defaults to c:\wamp for a reason, and that the reason. You can install it on any drive c/d/e/ etc but not in program files

Ok, stop uninstalling and re-installing it wont help!! You get this message when apache is not started and you attempt to make wampmanager do something that requires it to stop and restart Apache. So I assume Apache is not starting properly. What Colour is your wamp manager icon that sits in the system tray. What OS are you using? Is it 32 or 64 bit? What wamp did you install? Was

If the Wampmanager icon is orange then either Apache or MySQL service has not started. It is normally Apache that has not started and this is normally because some other service has already grabbed port 80. Left click the wampmanager icon in the stsrem tray and follow these menus -> Apache -> Service -> Test port 80. This will launch a command window and tell you what is using por

Using Apache on a non standard port number is quite possible but not recommended. If you are not using IIS uninstall it, you can re-install later if you actually wamt it. Alternatively you can disable the services used by IIS while you are developing using Apache and then re-enable them when you want to go back to IIS development. If you have no intension of using IIS and dont know how to

Great info RiggsFolly! I printed a copy of your tutorial. Question: So you like to put your website in a directory outside of wamp to keep it save from upgrade deletion, but do you also keep a copy in the \wamp\www\ folder? Or do you use this directory just for the wamp index.php file? No copy in the wamp\www folder. That will now only be looked at for the WAMP home page. Also I wa

RE Restart: Yes of course. Its Apache you wan to restart, not WAMP, but 'wampapache', which is the name of the service is a standard windows service so you can use these standard windows command line commands to start and stop any service. >net stop wampapache >net start wampapache RE: Memory limit and apache crashing: I was hoping you had something wierd on the memory_limit p

'root' is by default a SUPER user. It comes as the only userid and therefore would have to be a super user. Ok, here we go! When you copy the data folder and all its subfolder from Old to New version you are also copying the database that MySQL uses to hold its users and their passwords and privilages. You have to do this as the upgrade utility may need to apply upgrades to these tables

To get ldap to work you have to give PHP access to 2 other dlls These are libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll Unfortunately these dlls have to be in a folder that is on your system PATH for PHP to find them. They are delivered in the c:\wamp\php\php5.x.y folder for the 32 bit system. I am fairly sure the file names are the same i.e. lineay32 and ssleay32 even if you are running on a 64 bit sy

You did ok so far, but what you need to do is:- The MySQL users you created for each of your projects was a great idea, but for the duration of the install you need to give them all the privilages you can. During the install they will need to create tables etc that is usually done by an admin or super user. So start by going to phpMyAdmin and adding all privilages to these users. Run t

I guess something may have changed since the tutorial was written or he just got it wrong. There is no code that actually looks inside the vhosts/*.conf files. All that is used to generate the vhosts name is the filename itself. I have just setup all my vhosts to appear in this section of the wamp home page and my conf files do not contain anything. Just make the name of the file match you

First lets see a link to the tutorial you are viewing. Like I say I never used this before and I just took a look at the WAMP code and made a few extrapolations and a test or two.

if icon is orange then Apache has probably not started. this is usually because port 80 has been grabbed by another process. Check, do you have IIS running is yes then uninstall it.

The tutorial used 5.2.28 as an example. where you see 5.2.28 think 5.6.10.... Duh No you can go from what you were using to what you want to use.... unless MySQL details on upgrading say not to. You should place the new mysql in the same WAMP folder structure or wamp wont be able to find it. So you should have a c:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.5.10 folder into which you put the code downloaded fr
