WEBDEVT Dillema – localhost not displaying WampServer (A Suggestion)

For those having a Windows default page when they type http://localhost in their browser, or that their WampServer is offline, here’s a suggestion:

Follow Sir’s instruction on STOPPING the WORLD WIDE WEB PUBLISHING service on the CONTROL PANEL>ADMINISTRATIVE TOOLS>SERVICES window as shown in this example:

QuickPost Quickpost this image to Myspace, Digg, Facebook, and others!

Then, look for a WAMPACHE service and right-click on it and select START, as shown in this example:

Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us

QuickPost Quickpost this image to Myspace, Digg, Facebook, and others!

Now try to access http://localhost and you should have the following page:

Hope this helps. God bless to everyone!
