I had been successfully using WAMP on my PC for a year or so but after I got internet connection through LAN, I noticed that WAMP has stopped working. When I go to http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1 (port is set to 80), the page just keeps on loading indefinitely (of course there are no errors on the page, this is not related to any script errors).

I tried:

  • Re-installing wamp
  • Re-starting computer
  • Checking to see if port 80 is used by some other program (none used that)
  • I don't use SKype
  • Saw server log of apache; nothing suspicious found
  • Tried running on different browser

Also all services are running fine.

What Works:

  • I can access MySQL successfully
  • I can run PHP scripts inside an editor like PHP Designer 2005

Any ideas please, i have become very dejected, so please help.

Details:

Windows XP SP2 with Avira Antivirus

Thanks in advance.

  • Have you tried disabling the LAN interface and see if it's working?

  • Also, what is in your apache.conf? Specifically, what is does the Listen line have on it?
