WAMP Assistance

[Michigan]

Hey guys, I am having an issue with my VPS I rented from NFO (Windows Server 2008 R2). I have installed Wamp and all required elements and it runs properly, the only thing is, it refuses to go online. The icon in my task bar is a red wamp icon indicating its offline and every time I click the "Start All Services" button, nothing happens and the icon stays red. Also, when I click on localhost or the phpmyadmin link in the taskbar menu for it, it opens up internet explorer and says this page cannot be displayed... Also, I did Install Web Server IIS then found Wamp, removed WSIIS, and installed Wamp. Any help?

Open an elevated command prompt(start->search "cmd"->right click->run as admin) and type
netstat -ab

PM me the result(you can right click and select mark, then highlight what you want copied, right click again to copy it)

I cannot PM for some reason. I cant find the button..

Alright, I restarted the VPS and the red has gone away now, but it will not turn green and stays on the yellow icon. And when I click the localhost or phpmyadmin button, it still says page cannot be displayed... Anyone?

The point of doing netstat was to show which ports are already in use. I asked for a pm because knowing which ports are open can be a potential security issue.

Put the output in pastebin and make it link-only and post the link here, that should be good enough.

I forgot these forums seems to be lacking that feature(thought I used it before).

Here is a link to the output on the cmd: http://pastebin.com/ZcqzKP6q


I did check port 80 with wamps features and nothing shows up so I know port 80 is completely good.

Wamp fixed itself, I have no idea how, it just did. Thanks anyways.

I have had the same issue and one or two restarts fixed it up.

Also, I have been looking into it and for some reason cant figure it out. I want people to be able to connect to my computers IP address on their internet browser as I have setup sourcebans on it but when I try to connect to the IP address from my home computer, it says Forbidden and I cant access it. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks.

Firewall?

Forbidden is a web server page telling you you cannot access that content.

is sourcebans in your web servers root directory, or is it in another folder? For example 1.2.3.4/sourcebans, if sourcebans is inside the folder "sourcebans" in your website root foler. If you are accessing the correct folder, try adding index.php at the end, if that works you need to tell apache that index.php is a default file it should look for.

Alright, when I access sourcebans from localhost on my VPS it works and the directory is: http://localhost/bans it works perfectly fine. But when I try to access it on my computer which is on a different network using: http://74.91.121.156/bans it says could not find page. When I try to do the IP instead of localhost even on the VPS itself, it still says forbidden. How can I make it so other networks can connect to it and it can get rid of the forbidden page? Also, sorry for the long reply, I went on a trip with my family.

It says cannot establish connection for me, is the web server still online?

[soja]

Ok it says forbidden now.

Have you tried changing the apache conf file to allow access from all? Kinda shown here:

I know you probably aren't using virtual hosts, but check for deny all or something along those lines in your httpd.conf
