WAMP Server can be installed in any Drive of preference, though C: is default.

Starting the Wamp Server

Post successfull installation of Wamp Server, run the ‘WampServer’. Its icon [W] starts with colour – Red, then progresses to Amber, and finally to Green, on all its 3 services started Successfully.

Launch the Wamp Server

Click the Wamp Server [W] icon, and then click the “LocalHost” link, to launch Wamp Server’s home page
By default, the launch address will be “http://localhost/”, with Port as “80”, (“http://localhost:80/”)

If, due to the default port “80” already taken, it will not allow the Wamp Server’s home page to be launched.

To change the default port of ’80’ into any desired port, like ‘8080’.
Modify the following 2-files: httpd.conf, wampmanager.conf

  1. [drive]:\wamp64\bin\apache\apache2.4.41\conf\httpd.conf
    Listen 0.0.0.0:80 → Listen 0.0.0.0:8080
    Listen [::0]:80 → Listen [::0]:8080
    ServerName localhost:80 → ServerName localhost:8080
  2. [drive]:\wamp64\wampmanager.conf
    apachePortUsed = “80” → apachePortUsed = “8080”

Now, Stop and Start the Server, to see the changes

To change the Wamp Server’s default: Navigator (browser), Editor

File: [drive]:\wamp64\wampmanager.conf
navigator = “[drive]:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe”
editor = “[drive]:\Windows\system32\notepad.exe”

Now, Stop and Start the Server, and these changes will be reflected
