When you already have IIS running then you may not be able to run WAMP Server at Localhost. You need to shutdown IIS in order to run WAMP Server properly.
To run WAMP Server parallel with IIS 7, we need to assign port 8080 to WAMP Server so that it runs on http://localhost:8080 and IIS 7 runs on http://localhost
To do this, click on WAMP Server icon on taskbar and go to Apache > httpd.conf
httpd.conf file will be opened. Change ‘Listen 80’ to ‘Listen 8080’ (As shown in the screenshot). Save and restart WAMP.
Now you can access WAMP Server access on http://localhost:8080
And at http://localhost IIS 7 will be running.
"Now you can access WAMP Server access on http://localhost:8080"
ReplyDeleteHow do you know when that happens? I am still getting a "could not connect" on the localhost:8080... whereas IIS pops up when I type in localhost.
Any suggestions/karma to send my way?
check wamp server everytime offline?
