No idea what's happened here - I've been using Webmatrix to build a wordpress site - everything has been going nicely. Powered off the machine last night, now today am unable to run the site.
Firefox gives me this error -
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost:portnumber.
I've tried running other sites from Webmatrix, no joy. Uninstalled xampp. Windows firewall is off, Norton firewall has the appropriate exceptions.
Where has localhost gone? Anyone?
EDIT: reinstalled Webmatrix, no change. Reinstalling MySQL atm, will see if that helps.
EDIT: nup. Clean install of Webmatrix, MySQL and wordpress makes no difference.
All seems to be working again - rebooted, swore a little, had a coffee and boom, back in business. I think it was the swearing that helped.
Thanks for the suggestions

I'm trying to do some major dev on a two sites I built a couple years ago. They're both just plain old Wordpress installs with some customized themes. I pulled them both down off production today in an attempt to get them running locally to do this dev. First one goes fine. Second one keeps throwing the
Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension which
is required by WordPress.
error. They're both running on the same MAMP install on my system, just different directories. So I'm pretty confused as to why there's a difference. Typical "check phpinfo" on server responses to this issue don't really help as they're on the same server and have the same settings. Nothing SEEMS out of place within wp-config or phpMyAdmin. Feeling lost... plz help.
Welp, I'm dumb. My MAMP was defaulting to php 7. Turned it back to 5.6 and now I'm in business.
I have Wamp Server 2.5 installed and it was working fine until my Windows 8.1 update. After the update the Wamp Server has became very slow. I have searched for the solution the whole night and tried every possible solution but no joys :( I re-install wamp, disable IPv6, removed cache, etc. I tried to install Xampp Server then but it has the same issue. I came to know that the issue is with MySQL. Whenever I access my project which requires connection with database it doesn't respond but whenever I access any static page it works normally. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks in Advance
localhost may be needed to replace with 127.0.0.1 in your program
'Listen 80' need to replace with 'Listen 0.0.0.0:80' in httpd.conf
I've recently upgraded my app to Laravel 4.1 and I started getting this error (Chrome only)
net::ERR_INCOMPLETE_CHUNKED_ENCODING
in the console log. I have zero errors related to this in Laravel's logs and the same page works absolutely fine in Firefox or Safari. Can anyone help? I've been pulling my hair over this for quite a while now and I have no idea what else to try.
Any help is appreciated.
I started having this issues with MAMP, Laravel and Chrome every time i created a new project.
I use MAMP on Maverick so the solution for me was change on MAMP preferences -> php tab -> php extensions -> XCache to APC, that solved the problem.
Good luck.
Had the same issue on Laravel 4.2. My app has always been working on my local machine, but as soon as I put it on production server, it stopped working. As the answer above, XCache installed on the production server was the problem.
First of all you can check if XCache is enabled
$ php -v
...
with XCache v2.0.0, Copyright (c) 2005-2012, by mOo
What I did was to add this to my /public/.htaccess (to disable XCache)
php_flag xcache.cacher Off
php_flag xcache.size 0
php_flag xcache.stat Off
This way you check if XCache is the problem.
Is anyone else having trouble getting with their mysql server not starting with lion. Sometimes it starts sometimes it doesn't and it's really making me mad. This never happened until I started using lion. If anyone else has had this problem or knows a solution let me know.
Im going to go out on a limb here and say that it isn't working because of Skype.
If you were running Skype before starting up MAMP then this will cause apache to not start up.
This is due to the fact that both MAMP and Skype uses port 80. Just close Skype and apache should work again. Hope this helps!
I'm facing problem in installing Pligg on localhost(xampp). It seem to install successfully but does not login, as the page freezes. If anyone is familiar with this problem, please suggest me how to fix it. thanks.
Yes this problem is very very common. I similarly have this issue, even to this day. I've tried installation on Windows XP, Vista, and 7, all have failed.
The only way I'm able to work on Pligg is installing directly onto my hosting server. There I don't get any problems, go through the install process and access my site. Check out this quick google search as many of the top links from forums.pligg.com may offer a solution.
Unfortunately though, I haven't found one. To this day I still deploy my Pligg launches onto the server in a sandbox before going live.
I recommend using WAMP Server (Windows) or MAMP (Mac) for testing Pligg locally. I know for certain that both are working fine with the current version of Pligg CMS. I believe that I had some issues when I tried XAMPP years ago, so it may have some default setting that Pligg just doesn't agree with.
