I have installed two PHP versions in my WAMP server. When I am using 5.3.10, my wamp server is running just fine. But when I switch to older version of PHP (5.2.9) my wamp server tray icon is showing orange icon. If you click on Put Online I am getting following error.

I tried to change the port in httpd.conf to 8855 and still I am getting same error. How can I resolve this error?

Skype was problem for me, I signed out from Skype and it worked for me. – Kristiekristien
If Skype is causing the problem, you can configure it to not use port 80. In Options->Advanced->Connection uncheck "Use port 80 and 443..." and restart Skype. – Cider

By default , the WAMP server will take 80 as its working port.

You can change that port number as you like ... here are the steps to do that:

  • click on WAMP server tray icon
  • click on apache
  • select http.conf

Here notepad will open ...

  • scroll down and you will see the port number that WAMP server takes ...

  • change that port number to:

    #Listen x.x.x.x:8080
Listen 8080

  • save that file and restart the services... it will work fine...

  • now check by typing http://localhost:8080/.

If you are using Windows try out the following:

  1. Press (Windows+R)
  2. enter "services.msc" and click "OK"
  3. locate service with name 'wampapache'

and check if it's status is 'Running'. In case not, right click >> start.

Hope this helps!

If you have removed WAMP from boot services, it won't work – try the following:

  • Press (Windows+R)
  • enter "services.msc" and click "OK"
  • locate service with name 'wampapache'
  • Right click wampapache and wampmysqld, Click 'properties'
  • and change Start Type to Manual or automatic

This will work!

First go to Wamp->Apache->Service->Test Port 80

If its being user by Microsoft HTTPAPI / 2.0

Then the solution is to manually stop the service named web deployment agent service

If you have Microsoft Sql Server installed, even though the IIS service is disabled, it keeps a web service named httpapi2.0 running.

Maybe an old version of the service was not uninstalled from windows

  1. uninstall the old version running this command line

    sc delete wampapache

  2. Reinstall the service from wamp:

    Wamp Tray Icon -> Apache -> Service -> Install Service

It works for me, enjoy!

  1. Like you installed older version of PHP do the same with Apache. I picked version 2.0.63 and then I was able to run WAMP Server with PHP 5.2.9 with no problems.

  2. I also read that it's problem with 64-bit version of WAMP.

The problem was the MySQL56 service was running and it has occupied the port of WAMP MySQL.After MySQL56 service stopped the WAMP server started successfully.

To anyone who is reading this -> don't use php 5.3 anymore, switch to newer versions of php, because php 5.3 is using deprecated functions.

The following is a list of deprecated INI directives. Use of any of these INI directives will cause an E_DEPRECATED error to be thrown at startup, so I advise you to use newer version to develop.

define_syslog_variables
register_globals
register_long_arrays
safe_mode
magic_quotes_gpc
magic_quotes_runtime
magic_quotes_sybase
Comments starting with '#' are now deprecated in .INI files.

Deprecated functions:

call_user_method() (use call_user_func() instead)
call_user_method_array() (use call_user_func_array() instead)
define_syslog_variables()
dl()
ereg() (use preg_match() instead)
ereg_replace() (use preg_replace() instead)
eregi() (use preg_match() with the 'i' modifier instead)
eregi_replace() (use preg_replace() with the 'i' modifier instead)
set_magic_quotes_runtime() and its alias, magic_quotes_runtime()
session_register() (use the $_SESSION superglobal instead)
session_unregister() (use the $_SESSION superglobal instead)
session_is_registered() (use the $_SESSION superglobal instead)
set_socket_blocking() (use stream_set_blocking() instead)
split() (use preg_split() instead)
spliti() (use preg_split() with the 'i' modifier instead)
sql_regcase()
mysql_db_query() (use mysql_select_db() and mysql_query() instead)
mysql_escape_string() (use mysql_real_escape_string() instead)
Passing locale category names as strings is now deprecated. Use the LC_* family of constants instead.
The is_dst parameter to mktime(). Use the new timezone handling functions instead.

Deprecated features:

Some applications like skype uses wamp's default port:80 so you have to find out which application is accessing this port you can easily find it by using TCP View. End the service accessing this port and restart wamp server. Now it will work.
