To change the browser of localhost/phpMyadmin in WAMP - wamp

I have installed WAMP. But at the time of installation me selected internet explorer as default browser for opening localhost.Now my browser(internet explorer) is not working properly,so I have to change the browser to google chrome.What are the steps to follow to do the same?

This is an already answered question on this site

I thought it would not work because those answers are from 10 and 5 years ago, but it does.
Just in case, I will use that answer adding some details:
Open C:\wamp or C:\wamp64 in Windows Explorer (or wherever you
installed wampserver)
Open wampmanager.conf file in a text editor
Find the section [main]
Find the following line:
navigator = "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE"
Replace it with the location of the desired browser (firefox in this case):
navigator = “C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe”
Save the the file
Restart WAMP with right click on the tray icon and selecting
'Refresh'. Then your default browser should be changed.

ColdFusion 9.0.1 trouble adding hot fix

I'm trying to add the cumulative hotfix to ColdFusion 9.0.1. The instructions say to click on the 'i' in CFAdministrator and In the "Update File" text box, browse and select chf9010004.jar located under CF901/lib/updates.
The issue seems to be that whatever browser plugin that is being used is no longer supported by the current JRE version. Is there a way to manually add the hotfix without this step requiring to use the Java file browser?
In Safari the Java file uploader plugin says java out-of-date even though I'm running the latest version.
In Chrome a message comes up that says This site uses a plugin JAVA (TM) that will soon be unsupported. The plugin seems to load, but never goes past saying retreiving initial directories
Do not use the Browse Server button, just type the full path to the extracted chf9010004.jar file into the Update File text box then click the Submit Changes button.
The path should be something like:
C:\directory_where_you_extracted_the_zip\CF901\lib\updates\chf9010004.jar

Adding FavIcon to Sharepoint 2013 Site

When we upgraded from Sharepoint 2010 to Sharepoint 2013, our favicon was no longer being displayed. An internet search offered a couple of solutions. One method suggested placing the file in C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\15\TEMPLATE\IMAGES and performing an IIS reset.
Not having access to the server and not wanting to disrupt a production site with an IIS reset, I opted to handle this with an upload to a site library and master page change.
I found the following to be an easy change to make.
These are the steps I took:
Upload your .ico file to your site / siteassets library
Make note of the URL to the uploaded .ico file (right click and choose copy shortcut from the menu
In Sharepoint Designer, open your master page file - v4.master or your custom file
Search for this line: SharePoint:SPShortcutIcon.. (if you have a custom master page and this line is missing, copy it from v4.master and place it in the head section.)
Paste the URL of your .ico file from step two into the SPShortcutIcon element on the IconUrl property
Save, checkin, and approve your master page. That's it. Your .ico file will appear in browser tabs and in the URL address bar depending on your browser. If using IE, you may need to clear your cache to get it to display.

Saiku-Clicking on New query not displaying anything

I downloaded saiku (Saiku Server 2.4 (Including Foodmart DB)) from the following link -http://analytical-labs.com/downloads.php.
Following the installation notes, I have downloaded latest Apache software, JDK. As per instructions if I now go to localhost 8080 I see log on page. Upon logging with username and password as admin and admin I am into the Saiku main page.
When I click on 'New Query' button nothing is happening. I am not able to see any Foodmart Databse or Dimensions or anything.
Can someone help me where I have gone wrong?
I have got it working. Problem was after running start-saiku.bat file, the command prompt file was still running with 'Press enter to continue..'. Upon clicking this, the cmd prompt ended and now am able to browse through Saiku from localhost.

Coldfusion 10 on Windows 2k8 - .com/ loads OK but .com/index.cfm gives a 404

I'm setting up a new server (CF10 W2K8) going by Pete Freitag's new CF10 lockdown guide. I have a test site installed and if I bring up www.mydomain.com it loads the default document (index.cfm) just fine. However, if I try www.mydomain.com/index.cfm (or any other specific .cfm page), I get a 404 not found.
IIS logs do record a 404 error. If I create a .htm/.html page it comes up fine.
I had this problem as well. Running on Windows Server 2008 R2.
I found some threads that suggested that I re-run the "Web Server Configuration Tool" that is installed with CF 10 ({cfroot}\cfusion\runtime\bin\wsconfig.exe).
I tried several things including "Add..." using the name of the server (instead of localhost). Then when I removed it (connections using the name of the server), I could see the IIS commands getting executed to remove all of the connection settings. I also removed the localhost connection. However, using "Add..." to attempt to add localhost back never worked.
So, for me, this tool only worked for removing the cfm/IIS settings that allowed CF to work. My next step was going to be a reinstall of CF 10. However, I found a link to this page:
http://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/kb/coldfusion10-iis-manual-connector-configuration.html
I followed the instructions on that page with a few exceptions. I didn't need to follow steps #1 & #2. The file (isapi_redirect.dll) was still there. Steps #3 - #5 were verified (the files existed and had the correct information in them). Everything worked after I finished the steps, except document root documents (http://website.com/). All I had to do was add index.cfm as a server-wide "Default Document". Adobe forgot that step in their instructions.
I don't know why the "Web Server Configuration Tool" failed to install on my server. I even tried running it "Run as administrator" with no success.
I did have to add the virtual directories (CFIDE & jakarta) to all the sites on the server as well.
You can use these handy command-line snippets to speed up that process if you have multiple sites to manage:
rem add cfide virtual directory (CF 10):
%systemroot%\System32\inetsrv\appcmd add vdir /app.name:"site.com/" /path:/CFIDE /physicalPath:"{cfroot}\cfusion\wwwroot\CFIDE"
rem add jakarta virtual directory (CF 10):
%systemroot%\System32\inetsrv\appcmd add vdir /app.name:"site.com/" /path:/jakarta /physicalPath:"{cfroot}\config\wsconfig\1"
Just replace the "site.com" and {cfroot} values to work with your server.
When setting up additional sites you must create a virtual directory called jakarta that is mapped to the /config/wsconfig/1 folder
Sorry - forgot to mark this closed. I reformatted and reinstalled everything per the CF10 lockdown guide and it worked that time.
I know one problem I had was mapping a virtual 'jakarta' directory in IIS, but I never came up with a specific solution for the domain.com/index.cfm issue.

I could not launch Php files using Aptana Studio 3

I recently downloaded the Aptana Studio 3 and installed it on my computer..I also configure the webserver in aptana by navigating in window > preferences > webservers, and then i click new button i choose "external web server". then filled all fields ,
Name:WampSerever
Base URL://localhost
C:\wamp\www
Start Command: NET START wampapache
stop Command: NET STOP wampapache
After that, when i am going to test my php by clicking the green button above in the Aptana Studio select "Run firefox-Internal Server"...the firefox open but it displays blank page...
This is what is displayed in the URL
http://127.0.0.1:8020/TestAptana/Hello.php
If your code is correct then try this. I use XAMMP as my server so I'm not sure if this will work with WAMMP.
Go to run configurations select Web Browser then choose which browser you want to use. Then in the main tab under Server find "Use base URL" and click on it. Enter http://localhost/ and make sure that you check the "Append project name".
Make sure that your index page's name is index.html or index.php if you are using php and try running it.
I have this problem too, but one additional thing you need to is to set the path for PHP.exe.
Do this by going to Preferences/Aptana Studio/Editors/PHP/PHP Interpreter. Add and fill in blanks (browse) to php.exe.
