Please, I need assistance. I would like to uninstall my wamp server from my windows 10 computer.
When ever I try use control panel it keeps saying "vunins000.dat" is missing.
You must have delete the "vunins000.dat" file.
If you want to uninstall wamp server delete the folder C:\wamp
Warning: Make sure you have backup your databases and sites first.

We had PMwiki installed in a few directories under public_html running on our old CentOS6 server.
The home directories were on a file system (RAID) separate from the system, so they were not affected by the installation of CentOS7 from scratch.
Now the 'normal' pages under public_html are accessible, php works (version 7 instead of 5), mysql works, but when i point the browser to one of the pmwiki-pages nothing is displayed, not even an error message.
On another post from here i read that to port pmwiki from one server to another one it is sufficient to copy the wiki.d directory. But in this case i didn't even touch the pmwiki.
Is there a way to get the system going again, or at least to find out what the problem is?
edit:
To clarify:
http://newserver/~QHG/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/QHG2/QHG2
does not work, but
http://newserver/~QHG/pmwiki/test.html
does work
I think, the problem is around .htaccess config and your Clean URLs config.
You can download and install fresh PmWiki package and see if it works from the box. If it works, compare .htaccess and /local/config.php files from both installs to find out what is wrong.
I am trying to start wamp serve which was totally running fine on my laptop two weeks ago, but now after two weeks I suddenly get this error:
could not execute menu item(internal error)[exception] could not execute run action: the directory name is invalid
When I click on wamp, then I go to apache, then I select service then test port 80 and this is what I see:
when I write localhost, it goes there but when I click on Localhost and phpMyAdmin, i get this error:
please tel me how I can fix this . thanks
WAMP is trying to open your browser, but the directory in the settings is not correct. It could be that your browser is now located somewhere else. To fix this:
Edit the file wampmanager.conf inside your wamp direcotry.
Replace the full file path under the [main] section for the navigator parameter
Save the file
Right-click on the wamp icon and select refresh
Try it now
Good luck!
The paths are incorrect in multiple ini files and the wampmanager conf file. Here are the ones I changed since my installed moved from g drive to e drive. I had to change all instances of g:/ to e:/ as well as my chrome.exe location
wampmanager.conf:
in the [main] section update the path of chrome.exe or ensure it is correct.
wampmanager.ini:
change all instances of g:/ to e:/ (or whatever your install drive letter is)
php.ini (under /wamp/bin/php/php5.5.12/)
again, change all instances of g:/ to e:/ (change to your install letter)
Wampmanager started correctly once these changes were made.
I had a similar problem, and to get my WAMP server working again on my laptop I ran the executables for Apache and MySql independant of the WAMP system tray icon.
In Windows Explorer, I ran (elevated):
{wamp folder in my case C:\wamp}bin\apache\apache2.2.22\bin\ApacheManager.exe
This put the apache manager system tray icon in.
then I used the apache system tray icon to start apache server
Then I ran (elevated):
{C:\wamp}bin\mysql\mysql5.5.24\bin\mysqld.exe
This allowed me to use localhost\phpmyadmin, which to me demonstrates the php, mysql and apache are all working.
My web app was also back and running.
The age of my MySql version and apache version show how long this had been stable for.
I initially thought the problem may have been caused by a google chrome upgrade which included the notifications icon in the system tray, as the chrome upgrade was the only thing I recall changing. I unistalled chrome but this did not fix it - although this does not rule out Chrom Notifications being what broke it!
This appears to be an oversight on the WAMPSERVER developers. For some reason it does not translate the file path syntax from Linux to Windows, resulting in the following error message:
Aestan Tray Menu: Could not execute menu item (internal error)
[Exception] Could not execute run action: The directory name is invalid
To fix this, edit wampmanager.conf and replace the forward slashes in the file path with backslashes.
EXAMPLE:
Incorrect
editor ="C:/Program Files/Sublime Text 3/sublime_text.exe"
Correct
editor ="C:\Program Files\Sublime Text 3\sublime_text.exe"
Save the file, then right click the tray icon and select "Refresh". You should now be able to edit your files with your selected editor without issue :)
i have met this problem and fixed by editing 4 files
- wampmanager.conf in root
- wampmanager.ini in root
- php.ini in (wamp64/bin/php/php5.5.12)
- httpd.conf in (wamp64\bin\apache\apache2.4.18\conf)
My wamp 2.0 is using around more than 100 large database and a lot of projects.I also made around more than 50 virtual host. Now I need to upgrade wamp 2.0 to 2.5.
I got some suggestion on internet that take back up of database and files , then uninstall wamp 2.0 and install 2.5 then set up every thing again, but it seems it is not a right way.
What is the best way ?
Usually I follow following steps to do it easily.
Stop Wamp Service
Rename the wamp folder to wamp-backup
Download latest version of wamp and install it
Rename the data folder of mysql with some different name
(C:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.5.20)
copy data folder of mysql from wamp-backup and paste it to new
install wamp mysql folder (C:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.5.20)
Rename new httpd-vhosts.conf file to httpd-vhosts-backup.conf.
Copy old httpd-vhosts.conf and paste to new installed wamp
(C:\wamp\bin\apache\Apache2.2.21\conf\extra)
In apache 2.4, the directive Allow was dropped in favor of new
directive Require. So change the settings from Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all Allow from all to Require all granted
From
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from all
to
Require all granted
9.The old www folder in wamp needs to be copied into the new one.
Let me know whether it's working or not.
you should do this , I recently updated it , first of all I took my Wamp directory back, then uninstall Wamp not remove the www directory , After that install the latest wamp on the same location , after this copy the folder named data inside the old wamp bin\mysql\mysql5.5.24 and paste that folder inside your new wamp on the same location then run your projects after starting the wamp services.
Note: folder version of db may be different and also latest wamp is based on virtual host so create v hosts also
Thanks
You may directly Upgrade Wampserver from Secondary repository of Wampserver files.
There are various options present on the site:
Install Wampserver full version
Wampserver Update
Addons-
Applications
Apache
PHP
MySQL
MariaDB
Also, one could directly download Tools and Visual C++ packages from here.
So, my suggestion would not be to make any changes in any file in the wamp, nor uninstall the present wamp, and download the latest version. Simply update your wampserver from this website.
There will be no change to the Apache, PHP, MySQL, and MariaDB
settings and versions used; your local sites and databases will not be
affected. This update will be necessary to be able to install the last
addons Apache, PHP, MySQL or MariaDB
Quoted from the site itself.
NOTE: Before uptading, you may just make a copy/backup of your "wamp folder" somewhere on your local machine. In case there is some issue in the update, you won't lose any file and always be able to restore your previous work.
Hope this answer helps someone, if it does kindly upvote. All the best!
To update to latest wamp version safely, use http://wampserver.aviatechno.net/
You can update complete wamp or install newer php/apache versions.
The problem I am facing is that I just upgraded to Win 7 64-bit and installed Wamp server with VC++ and it works fine.
But I can't access subdirectories in the web directory (C:\wamp\www), I can access the files although.
Please guide me through.
It is now strongly advised that you create Virtual Hosts for all your project, even those that you store in the \wamp\www\project1 folder structure.
WampServer now assumes that you have done this, and that is why you get this issue.
Here is a previous answer Project Links do not work on Wamp Server
I read many similar questions about it but the solutions are not working for me.
The icon says WAMP Server online but it stays orange.
when I test port 80 under Apache/services/Test port 80 it says that port 80 is actually used by: Server: Apache/2.2.8 PHP/5.2.6
Shouldn't that be a good thing? As there are no other programs using port 80, despite that when I type local host I get a weird page instead of the normal one, it has pink bars

Easy way to build Webserver, Database Server with AppServ :-)
I really need to start working in this project but this is preventing me from even starting.
I have solution...
Click WampServer icon in tray icons -> Apache -> Service -> Install service
(same for mysql -> Service -> Install service )
Then, Apache -> Service -> Start service (same for MySql -> Service -> Start service)
done! Enjoy :-)
If you are running Skype, stop it since it uses port80 which is needed by WAMP
You can also switch the port needed for Wamp.
Follow this article
How to change port number for apache in WAMP
Unless you really know what you are doing you should only have ONE Apache on your system.
Basically WAMPServer and APPServ are the same thing, that is they are installers for the WAMP Stack i.e. Apache, MySQL and PHP.
You only need one of them so uninstall the other, of course remember to backup anything you may want to move over to the other before you uninstall one of them.
Check if MySQL is running or not
Click on Wamp icon in icon tray then
MySQL->Service
if Start/Resume Service is visible and clickable it means your MySQL service is not running that's why it is giving you problem.
It's possible that you have installed some other application that installed and running MySQL - so already having one MySQL running is what conflicting with wamp's MySQL.
How to stop other MySQL from running?
Simply go to My Computer and search for file name "my.ini" (without quotes)
There should be at-least two my.ini files on your computer delete all other my.ini except the one in wamp directory
Restart your computer and start the wamp server it should solve your problem
As of WampServer 2.5 (64bit), these are the things I had to do to get it to go green:
In your my.ini
Change [wampmysqld] to [wampmysqld64]. Now when you start/stop wamp you should get information in your mysql log file (and errors if you have any).
I uncommented all the innodb lines under where it says Uncomment the following if you are using InnoDB tables (except for innodb_log_arch_dir and innodb_additional_mem_pool_size).
Make sure the innodb_data_home_dir is set properly, like innodb_data_home_dir = C:/wamp/bin/mysql/mysql5.6.17/data/. Do the same for innodb_log_group_home_dir.
Change the locale line to read lc-messages=en_US for English.
You can confirm mysql is up and running with Wamp Icon > Mysql > Service (Start/Resume service should be greyed out)
Install and start apache:
Wamp Icon > Apache > Service > Install Service.
Wamp Icon > Apache > Service > Start. (you can click on "test port 80" to see if something was blocking it like others have mentioned, such as skype, sql reports, etc.)
During the starting of WAMP server, the Apache service should be started as well. In case, it doesn’t start; WAMP server won’t perform as it should be.
To fix this issue, navigate to the WAMP server icon in the system tray > Apache > Service administration ‘wampapache64’ > Install Service.
it will open the Command Prompt on your screen. After closing the Command Prompt, go to the same path and click on Start/Resume Service.
The WAMP server icon should turn to green right away.
In case you can have all these but still, the icon is displaying orange color, you need to click on Restart Service button.
