This question may be redundant but I am unable to get anything working from what I’ve read.
I have a fresh installation of the latest WAMP server on my Windows 64 bit machine residing within the c:/ folder.
I have successfully downloaded and installed WordPress and Joomla!, however bringing over existing projects seems to fail.
I was given the task to work on an existing WordPress and Joomla! site. I created folders for them within c:/wamp/www like the other two defaults. I also created the correct database in the phpMyAdmin however when I navigate directly to is via browser is the issue.
Default WordPress URL
“http://localhost/wordpress/” [works just fine]
Downloaded WordPress URL
“http://localhost/bridges/” which relocates me to “http://localhost:8010/bridges/” and throws a “Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to localhost:8010”
Any idea of why this is happening would be greatly appreciated. I will supply more info if need be. Thanks.
The answer was ridiculous. The settings were set to localhost:8010 so I had to modify them via phpMyAdmin or if you can get to the wp-admin then modify them there.
