WampServer gives me blank page on the browser

Question

I have installed WampServer. It is online now. When I give localhost in the browser it gives me a blank page. How can I get rid of it?

Before installing WampServer, Do i need to install PHP manually?

Answer 1

A better solution would be to use wampmanager -> Apache -> Service -> Test port 80

This will launch a command window and tell you if anything is using port 80.

Then rather than killing it ( if its a service that is automatically started it will just be back again after a reboot ) attempt to reconfigure it so it no longer uses port 80.

Answer 2

I had the same issue - my W icon was also not green during the whole time.

I exited Skype and then selected the Wamp icon and selected "Restart Services".

W turned green, localhost working now.

Hope this helps
