DONT USE WORDPAD, If you dont have a decent editor use notepad. Wordpad will add all sorts of document try crud into a file it edits. this could be your problem. Try pasting this into the config file using notepad, to save you re-installing if you didnt back it up before your change.

Not sure where you are now so see if this helps. By default ( out of the wamp box ) mysql comes with a userid of 'root' which has no password. in x:\wamp\apps\phpmyadminx.y.z is a file called config.inc.php This file is used by phpmyadmin to login to the mysql database server. It comes with the following parameters set /* Server: localhost [1] */ $i++; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbos

DO NOT mess with LMHOSTS the file you need to look at is c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\HOSTS ( with no extension ) This should have one ( uncommented line ) 127.0.0.1 localhost If you see ::1 localhost REMOVE IT.

magap, If wampmanager is running and GREEN and you run wampmanager->apache->services->test port 80 it should say something like: Your port 80 is actually used by : Server: Apache/2.2.xx (Win32) PHP/5.3.y Check that the services wampapache and wampmysql are running in windows services.

No I have run wamp on a vmware virtual machine. But it sounds like you have IIS running, as its a server version of windows installed its quite likely it activates IIS by default. Check it out and it you are not going to use IIS uninstall it. Otherwise if you want both web servers running you will have to change one of them to use a different port i.e. not 80. Run wampmanager->ap

If the wamp manager icon in the system tray is RED then neither apache or mysql has started correctly. The ONLINE is something else completely. It says you have used the "Put Online" which just changes the apache config to allow access from any ip address or when Offline to only allow access from localhost, 127.0.0.1 Are you sure you dont have something else using port 80?

These are error messages from the nice new xdebug debugger which makes them much more obvious than just using php's standard error messages. If you want to stop all your error messages coming to the screen there are 2 options: 1. Fix the code that is throwing the error. 2. The lazy way, edit php.ini and change the following display_errors = On -> Off

It sounds like you may be trying to access your server from another PC. If this is the case, run wamp manager -> Put online By default wamp configures apache to only allow access from ip address 127.0.0.1, when you Put Online it will allow access from THE WORLD. ------- Original state ------ # onlineoffline tag - don't remove Order Deny,Allow Deny from all Allow from 127.0.0.1

Have you also checked your HOSTS file C:/windows/systems32/drivers/etc/hosts It should have this line in it ( not commented ) 127.0.0.1 localhost If you see this line, without a comment ::1 localhost either comment it out (add a # in col1) or remove it completely. This is a IPV6 version of localhost and is not really required yet, but MS decided to be ready for IPV6 and ad
Forum: WampServer English

You can add this to the httpd.conf file or a virtual host definition. If you are using virtual hosts it would be better in there as it will only effect the one site then.

Andi, Remove the line ::1 localhost that is for IPV6 and you dont need it, in fact it confuses everything currently.
Forum: WampServer English

Something else you are running is using port 80, almost definitely. Go to wampmanager -> Apache -> Services -> Test port 80. That should tell you if and what is using port 80. If it is SKYPE kill it and see if restarting all services will now make wamp manager green. if that fixes it, do a search here and find out how to change SKYPE so it does not use port 80.

You will need to "Put Online" your wamp server. This process changes your httpd.conf. After an install, wamp ( for security reasons ) sets the following # onlineoffline tag - don't remove Order Deny,Allow Deny from all Allow from 127.0.0.1 So that the server can only be accessed from the machine it is running on. When you put it online it changes this to Order Allow,

frank, Unless you are using it, uninstall IIS ( I assume that is what is using port 80 ). That should solve your issue. this can be done from Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Turn windows features on and off untick the Internet Information Service, and everything below it.

You cannot do anything until you get apache running. Check the apache error log. Also check the event viewer in windows. Is something else using port 80? like skype? If so do a seach to find out how to change skype not to use port 80. Check no other web servers are running like IIS they all use port 80 by default. get rid of any other web servers.
