Download Wamp Server Old Version 2.0 - best software for Windows. WampServer: Testing a PHP web project is a tedious task. One needs to send the files to a remote.

Great guide, got it working first try thanks to it! In my case i also to add the path to PHP in the PATH system environment variable (System >Advanced system settings >Advanced >Environment variables >System variables >PATH) as such:;C:wampbinphpphp5.4.36. Otherwise, it was giving such errors: PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library ‘c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.4.36/ext/php_curl.dll’ – The specified module could not be found. In Unknown on line 0, even though the file existed at that path and came from the fresh PHP package i installed.

I basically had the same kind of problem. The original version of my X years old WAMP was with PHP5.3.x. I tried similar steps to upgrade it without success. I took a look on the logs “PHP Warning: PHP Startup: in Unknown on line 0” Nice, thanks for the help logs Finally, after some hours, I recognized that the problem was not the PHP binaries I had, but the WAMP application itself. For any strange reason, it needed php binaries build with specific options and mostlikely specific VisualStudio version.

I “simply” unsinstalled it and got last version. On the last WAMP version, I added other PHP version following the same steps (and removing the xdebug related extensions that I don’t have from ini), it is working fine. The only thing I’m afraid of now, is to not being able to downgrade my PHP version and having all the extension working. I had some strange complains about PHP build ID while trying to run php5.4.38 from command line. Adobe Illustrator Cc Crack Mac Os on this page. But I guess that’s out of this topic.

I followed all the steps faithfully and everything worked fine until the last step where I had to restart all services, and ALAS, wampserver won’t change from orange to green!!!! An investigation into Windows Event Viewer revealed Apache was having trouble. Here’s the error problem: httpd.exe: Syntax error on line 127 of C:/wamp/bin/apache/apache2.2.22/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load C:/wamp/bin/php/php5.5.28/php5apache2_2.dll into server: The specified module could not be found. I think Apache too needs to be upgraded, and I don’t know how now I’m hooked.

I think I need some help!!! Hi Lorence, PHP 5.5 runs on VC11, while PHP 7 runs on VC14. So, all of your extensions will need to run on VC14 in order to work with PHP 7 and you’ll need to ensure that the Visual C++ Redistributable Package for Visual Studio 2015 is installed on your system – either 32bit or 64bit depending on which version of WAMP you are running. At the time of this comment, you’d need Xdebug 2.4.0 release candidate 3. As PHP 7 is very new, it’ll take the Windows world a bit of time to catch up (in a broad sense). I won’t be surprised if you run in to a few speed bumps. Let me know how things go!

To my knowledge their is not yet a stable build of php7 for Windows. Once their is, it’s should be pretty simple to install – same process as the steps noted in the article and screencast above + perhaps installing the VC14 redistributable package.

I have not tried WAMP 3 yet. To be perfectly honest, I prefer not to be on the bleeding edge versions of software (as a broad general statement). Every time I have gone that route, I have ended up wasting precious time. Glad you found value in the post 🙂 •. Hi John – excellent tutorial thanks!

I’ve got a bit of a strange problem though I’m upgrading php from System Mechanic Activation Key Generator. 5.5.12 to 5.6.21 and have followed all the steps you gave (including adding the Windows path variable) and I have VC13 installed fine. WAMP starts up and seems to work all good – green light and no errors in the logs. The weird thing is that when I go to localhost wamp is telling me I’m using “PHP Version 5.6.21” but actually the Server Software says “Apache/2.4.9 (Win64) PHP/5.5.35”. When I go to phpinfo() it states version 5.5.35 at the top. Why might I be being told different versions in different places?! Thanks Sim •. I’m not sure I understand the question.
