Blank pages shown by wamp server even after changing port number

When i run my wamp server and run localhost:80 in chrome browser, It is showing me blank page. Then i changed my port number to 84 in httpd.conf file. Even then it is showing blank page.

I tried with different port numbers(85, 86, 8084) and also stopped skype process which uses port 80.

Could any one suggest me how to solve this problem?

Same issue, here is the solution ! (there is more than one file to change in order to go to different port)

Cause :

Another program (Skype but not only) is using the port80 (which is by default the one used by wamp). You can see it typing the following command "netstat -ano" and looking what is on "localadress 0.0.0.0.80", if you want to see the concerned program open, note the number at the end of the line (4 for example), then open taskmanager, services, and see who is on PID 4.

Solution :

Let's change wamp port to 81 !

Change wamp port from 80 to 81

You'd likely get a 404 if your webserver were misconfigured. A blank page typically means a PHP error.

  1. Check your error logs. You can find the log location in httpd.conf
  2. Fix your PHP issue. The logs have the file and line number.

1) You have to restart wamp server every time you change something in your config

2) Set everything back to default in wamp server or just re-install it

3) Open up skype, go to Tools -> Options..., Go to Advanced -> Connection And uncheck Use port 80 and 443 as alternatives for incoming connections -> Save

4) Launch WAMP again -> enjoy :)
