How to Install and Configure Wamp Server on Windows.

WampServer is a Windows web development environment. It allows you to create web applications with Apache2, PHP and a MySQL database. Alongside, PhpMyAdmin allows you to manage easily your databases.

Steps for Installing Wamp:

1. Go to www.wampserver.com

2. Click on Download option and select whether you want to download 32 or 34 bit.

3. After Clicking on Download click on download download directly

4. After that it will redirect you to the download page just save the Installer.

5. After downloading Install it and Save it in C drive.

6. After the Installation Open Wamp Server.

7. After opening Wamp Server check whether 3 Services of Wamp Server are Running or not.

    For doing that in the taskbar click on notification and check the icon color of Wamp Server.
    If the icon color is Green that means all the 3 Services of Wamp Server are Running.

If the icon is Orange that means out of 3 services 2 services are running..

8. To Solve this first make sure IIS is being installed on your machine. To check that go to

Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features

Then click on Turn Windows Features On or Off. After that Tick on IIS.

9. After that again go to notifications and Left click on Wamp Server icon and click restart all services.

10. If the Wamp Server Icon is still Orange then Left click on Wamp Server the click on localhost

If in the browser not showing anything that means local host port is not working because may be you have installed Sql Server on your machine which also uses same port. Default port is 80.

11. So to solve this problem we have to change the port of Wamp Server for doing this go to

C:\wamp64\bin\apache\apache2.4.39\conf

and open httpd file with notepad

After opening that file press ctrl+F and search for Listen

you can see that Listen having port 80 change that port with any other number. Exampe 85.
Listen 0.0.0.85
Listen [::0]:85

Then again search for Servername localhost

Change that also port with the same number which you used above.

12. Save it and Restart the Wamp Server. Check the icon in the notifcation you will get green color icon. After that open the browser and type localhost:85 ( Use the port number you used I used 85).
