I just did a fresh install of Apache server 2.2.
Everything works. When I go to localhost I get: "It Works!"
I just installed mySQL5.5 and when I go to localhost:3306 I just get gibberish:
J���

packets out of order
I see many posts on the internet with users with similar problems, but I can't figure out a solution.
Can anyone help?
The mysql service is not a web interface - you cannot connect using a browser. You will need to install a mysql client of some kind.
If you try to start phpmyadmin then do it like this:
localhost/phpmyadmin
I'm a jsp beginner.
I have a same problem with you.
I guess it's kind of port problem.
For me, I had set the port for Apache server connector as 9090.
Later, when I installed mysql, the port for mysql was 3306 as its default port.
In my jsp file,
i loaded jdbc driver like 'jdbc:mysql://localhost:9090/dbname'
and then i call 'http://localhost:9090/my.jsp' on my web browser.
That's when I got the same problem with you.
I fixed the port part in my jsp file like 'jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/dbname'
and I could get it all right.
I think you need to check the port for your Apache server.
You can check out \conf\server.xml file in your Apache directory.
The part starts with "Connector port=8080...." in server.xml file.
If so, you need to put 'http://localhost:8080... on your browser.
Try just to write http://localhost/ without the port and it will work , Or go to your phpmyadmin and click on My websites and it will take you immediately to your localhost
I'm having exactly the same problem, so far I have :
1)Manually changed the Collation (it seemed to be defaulting to cp850)
2)altered the ini/cnf file (located under services.msc -> MySQL)
3)Changed the max_packet_size to 2G
3)rebooted the server.
As a start to this please run this script from MySQL
'SHOW VARIABLES WHERE Variable_name LIKE 'character_set_%' OR Variable_name LIKE 'collation%';'
It should bring up a table of your collations, they should all read utf8

I want to send variable from android application to wamp server and retrieve data from server. Please suggest me and what is path of localhost for wamp server. I am using "localhost/TestAndroid/check.php". The error is occurred data is not parsed.
Please suggest me with code. How to accessing data from android application(JSON+Android+HTTPClient)?.
Thanks
Nitin
Use this localhost address in your code '10.0.2.2/TestAndroid/check.php'

WAMP server
Follow these steps.
Make sure your PC and Phone are in the same network (Connected to the same wi-fi)
Open a command prompt and run ipconfig and get the IP adress. 99% chances are it'll be something like 192.168.X.X
Use this IP instead of localhost. i.e. 192.168.X.X/TestAndroid/check.php
I used jQuery.load function to generate some dynamic page. I used POST method to send some data. The problem is, in my local PC (windows with Apache/php server) everything works fine, but when I upload it to my hosting server in internet (linux with Apache/php), it automatically add slashes to my string. Is jQuery have different behavior in different OS?
$("#fetch").click(function(){
klist ="'a','b','c'";
nlist ="'x','y','z'";
$("#mydiv").load("tor.php", {n: nlist, k: klist},function(){
$("#div2").hide();
});
Output of $_POST['n'] in tor.php is:
Local server: "'x','y','z'"
Internet Hosting server: "\'x\',\'y\',\'z\'"
Same for other variable.
Why it is happening and how to avoid this?
Rather than get into a whole thing about how you should install Linux on your local computer, the problem is that the remote server has the ini setting magic_quotes_gpc enabled. Either disable this setting or just call stripslashes on all of the $_POST values.
I've been googling this one a lot but I still could not make it work. I have a MAMP web server installed on my mac and I've created some a web service. It work fine when I call it from the browser on my mac when I use localhost:8888/myfile.php and also when I use 192.168.0.108/~martin/myfile.php.
The problem is when I try to call the 192.168.0.108/~martin/myfile.php from my iPhone to do some testing, the requests time out. It is really weird because this was working 2 days ago. I'm not sure what has changed. I'm not very familiar with httpd.conf and htaccess files, but I did not change things there manually.
Any help would be appreciated!
Have you tried going to http://192.168.0.108:8888/myfile.php on your iPhone? If MAMP is running on 8888 you will need to specify the port to access it there.
Be sure to check your computer's IP too. It's possible that it changed over the last few days depending on your router's setup.
Also, make sure the iPhone is indeed on the same network as your local machine. Depending on your network setup, a subnet might not work either. I've driven myself crazy trying to connect to a box that was actually connected on a separate subnet.
Don't know if this helps anyone but I got this working by simply removing the ip host address and changing this to the wildcard. It started working straight away after this
I had success opening my local-folder by opening the host by the computer’s local hostname.
Solution 1: computer’s local hostname
Find your computer’s local hostname: macOS->System Preferences->Sharing->File Sharing
https://support.apple.com/et-ee/guide/mac-help/mchlp1177/mac
Near the "Computer's Name" you can find the info:
"Computers on your local network can access your computer at:
"mymac.local"
Opening the compuerts name "your_computers_name.local" in iOS-Safari worked for me:
http://[your_computers_name.local]
For example:
http://mymac.local
Solution 2: computer’s network address
Try it with the computer’s network address. If you select and activate file-sharing in the preferences you can find the network address. Looks like: "smb://name.example.com". Replace "smb" with "http".
Open the network address in iOS-Safari (connected via USB-Cable or Wifi):
http://[insert_your_computer_network_address]
For example you can access your files like:
http://name.example.com/myfile.php
This worked for me, too.
As an alternativ way to find the address write "hostname" in terminal of the host-computer:
$ hostname
This will return the host's name / network address.
Doesn't work?
Maybe you have to allow file sharing first? I don't know ...
macOS->System Preferences->Sharing->File Sharing: On
I have a big problem opening http://localhost/ on Windows 7 (beta). I installed this os and everything went great; when I installed Wamp I saw that localhost is not working at all. I just see this error:
Failed to Connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost.
in Mozilla and Explorer.
I removed Wamp and after some weeks (that means two weeks from today) I installed NetBeans on Windows 7. I created a test PHP script and when I debug it, I get the same error again. I tried to access it with ip 127.... but still the same. What is the problem?
When i installed NetBeans I installed it in port 8080.
If you installed it on port 8080, you need to access it on port 8080:
http://localhost:8080 or http://127.0.0.1:8080
To fix the port 80 problem do:
From cmd as administrator:
sc config http start= demand (you need a space after the equal sign and not before)
Reboot
Run the command (netsh http show servicestate) as administrator to check that the port 80 is in use
After you have run this command, you can disable http.sys as follows:
net stop http (stop the process)
Sc config http start= disabled (if you want to disable the service forever)
it works for me.
Edit your C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file
Make sure there is an entry that looks like this:
127.0.0.1 localhost
If there is an entry like
:: localhost
Comment it out to look like this
\#:: localhost
This should fix your problem, I've had this problem in the past.
For me, it was skype causing the problem. Once I stopped skype, everything worked. I have 1.7.1 xampp (mysql and apache) running on Windows 7 x64.
It sounds like you have no web server running at all anywhere.
Have you tried enabling IIS and using it to display a basic html file first?
Programs & Features -> Turn Windows Features On/Off -> Internet Information Servcies
Then, place your html file in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\index.html and browse to http://localhost.
Once this works, try to get WAMP/php working. Be careful of port conflicts.
My initial thought is that you are missing an entry in the hosts file. Something like "127.0.0.1 localhost", however, you mention that you are getting a 404 error. That means that the webserver is connecting to your client/browser and responding to the request for a particular webpage.
I'm not familiar enough with Windows 7, however, I'm pretty sure that it does not include a webserver by default. Also, unless you actually code, build and run a webserver application using netbeans you're not going to get the desired response.
When it comes down to it.... your issue is going to be one of the following:
1) you're serving static documents and the webserver is not configured to serve the files from whatever the proper DOCROOT should be. This includes PUBLIC folders in the user's directories. (the basic apache install include a basic homepage)
2) you have a dynamic webserver application where the controller is looking at the application path in order to decide what page to display or what function to execute. (see MVC - Controller). Basically incomplete implementation.
3) yet another configuration error: your website might actually define a virtual domain. (something other than localhost) so when you look for localhost in the URL the server might not be configured to provide a default page.
Uncommenting the following line in host file worked for me,
#127.0.0.1 localhost
Well you are getting a 404, so the web server is running, it just can't find the file.
Check the http.conf file. If it pointing to the right root directory?
If you are using different ports, then check http.conf to see if Apache is listening on the right port, or if apache is redirecting traffic on the port to anther root directory.
Maybe posting your http.conf file might help?
If you're still having this problem, try this:
Edit your hosts file (with elevated privileges)
Uncomment the line "#127.0.0.1 localhost" (ie- remove the #)
Save the file as is. hosts with no extension
In Win7 MS has decided to comment the localhost line with that msg that says it's handled in dns. I'm still not exactly clear what they're getting at, except maybe that they're telling folks to use dns for localhost resolution instead of the hosts file. Probably safer that way, anyway.
Yea, this was a pain for me as well.
So what i did was find the "Start Wampserver", just hit the start button and type it in.
Then right click on it , select properties.
I set it to run in XP servive pack 3 on the capatability tab.
I also checked the box "Run this program as an administrator".
Then I right clicked the WAMPSERVER on the System Tray, and re-started all services.
This worked perfect for me, hope this will help you as well.

Got any other Programs running ? msn ect... ? some bind to port 8080 then your webserver wouldnt start and would cause a 404 , try binding it to a different port 80 which its default should be
I got a 404 could not connect error then I set wampmanager.exe to run as Xp Sp3 and it seems to be working fine this can be done by
Right Clicking on it
Properties
click tab labled "Compatibility"
Tick Box just undeder "Compatibility
mode"
Select Windows XP (Service Pack 3)
Click Apply then OK
It was Skype interfering for me too. I changed the Skype settings (in Skype go to Tools > options > advanced > Connection and UNCHECK "use port 80 and 443 as alternatives for incoming connections") save then close Skype. I have Win 7 HomePremium 64 bit, had installed Xampp fine with MySQL running fine, but no matter how many times I started Apache (and console showed "Apache started") I still got the "firefox can't establish a connection" error in the browser. After Skype changes were saved, Apache showed the green "Running" and all working now thanks
For me this did the trick at port 80 in the end:
You have to disable the http.sys service manually via the registry:
Launch RegEdit:
Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP
Add a new DWORD (32-bit) value
Name it ‘NoRun’ not including the quotes
Double click the new property
In the Value data field type ’1' not including quotes and click OK
Re-boot your computer
You should now find that Apache will start on port 80!
Have you try the iis? Go to Control Panel->Programs and Features->Turn Windows features on or off (side bar). Try installing or reinstalling the Internet Information Service. I've a windows 7 with iis, with .net and php, and it works great...
you have to install the service, go to wamp->Apache->Service->Install service, then a command prompt window will pop up, then press enter, and after a few seconds go to the same route Services-> and click Start/Resume service, and you ready
I had the exact same issue, and the solution is what someone has already said:
In the taskbar, click on the WAMP icon.
Go to Apache-->Service-->Install Service
Then go back by clicking and selecting Apache-->Service-->Start/Resume Service
This will allow the localhost function to work (keep in mind I had already changed the host file located under c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc to remove the # from the 127.0.0.1 line)
If you need to edit that file still, you need to right click on it and select Properties. Then go to the Security tab, and click the Advanced button. You then need to select the Users, click Edit and select "Full Control". This will enable you to edit it.
That being said, you need to ALSO install the MySQL service following the same procedure.
MySQL-->Service-->Install Service
Then go back by right clicking yet again and selecting MySQL-->Service-->Start/Resume Service.
And that should fix it all up in Windows 7!
Before installing Wamp, go to controlpanel=> Adminstrative tools => IIS Manager and turn off the IIS server. Install wamp and everything works fine. When IIS is on it also uses port 80. You can go through a lot of changing the ports and permissions for wamp but I have found this the quickest and easiest method of getting wamp to run successfully.
Try adding the following tags in the wwwroot folder web.config file. These tags should be added as a child of the configuration tags as below.
-configuration-
--system.webServer--
---validation validateIntegratedModeConfiguration="false" ---
--/system.webServer--
-/configuration-
Maybe Skype or other Application is using port 80.
This you can check in
Tools->Settings->Advanced->Connection
See the above solutions are very good.But whenever you get this 404 eroor,first see this.I am sure the problem will be solved...
Just go to httpd.conf file by clicking wamp server symbol in bottom right taskbar-Apache->httpd.conf... or c:\\wampt\\bin\\apache\\apache2.2.1\\conf\\httpd.conf and approximate on line no 46 you will find "Listen 80"...just make sure it is written "80" after Listen...if it not then change it to 80...And your problem will be solved...
Assuming there is no problem doing a lookup on localhost (to 127.0.0.1), you need to make sure your server is listening to 127.0.0.1.
netstat works in both windows an UNIX. You probably need "netstat -a" to display listeners.
