af,

Did you target the correct location with the WAMP directory (htdocs)? Did you tell the WAMP installation to install PHP, too? Is it any wonder I love the Kevin Yank approach to installing daemons rather than relying on "canned apps" (albeit I've been told that he's now leaning toward the "canned apps")?

Regards,

DK

yahyah, i changed the document root path in two places in httpd.conf as :

<Directory "D:\sites\mysite">
DocumentRoot "D:\sites\mysite"

i issue localhost/index.php or just localhost

What about this?

http://localhost:8888/index.php

You've possibly placed the file in the wrong place perhaps, with the version of wamp that I'm using, there is a folder called "www", each site or project has it's own folder in the "www" folder. Say within the "www" folder there was a folder called "wiki" (which would contain probably MediaWiki), to access the mediawiki the address that I would enter into the browser address bar would be http://localhost/wiki/
