Ok, let me try to shorten things so less to read. wamp works fine for the past few months, then I started to learn laravel4 and optionally requires vhost and rewrite_module which works pretty well that when I type in larave.intro as URL it works.
Now I'm trying to use wamp again just going to localhost AND page says
The title of the page does say 404 Not Found.
Read a few threads, some said go apache->service->Test port 80 and see if there are other ports running port 80. It says
Your port 80 is actually used by : Server: Apache/2.4.4 (Win32) PHP/5.4.16
which means my apache is the only one running it isn't it...
this already makes me curious and feeling weird, well alright then I go change my port or 8000 in the httpd.conf restart my wamp. and uses localhost:8000 alright now wamp works and I test port 80 again it says
Your port 80 is actually not used.
So nothing is running on my port 80 why can't wamp use it?
And, at first I thought it's my vhost so I deleted the vhost and in my host I deleted 127.0.0.1 laravel.intro too and runs my wamp back to port 80...still doesn't work. I was thinking then fine I will just use port 8000 BUT then my vhost won't work :(
I was using this as my vhost before
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "J:\wamp\www\laravel4-basic\public"
<Directory "J:\wamp\www\laravel4-basic\public">
Options FollowSymLinks Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
ServerName laravel.intro
</VirtualHost>
and in host it's 127.0.0.1 laravel.intro now since I'm using port 8000 I suppose I should change the vhost too? so I changed to
<VirtualHost *:8000>
and laravel.intro doesn't work. laravel.intro works if I'm using port 80 with virtualhost: *80 and in URL if I type 127.0.0.1:8000 what popped up is laravel.intro instead of the wamp index and if I use localhost:8000 wamp index comes out.
I'm pretty much so confused now.
Side note:php Admin works fine if I'm using port 80 and in URL I just go localhost/phpmyadmin
Anyone knows what I'm talking about here? I'm getting confused a bit myself at the end and anyone can get me back to port 80 with everything works? (if I have to change port then oh wells better than one works and the other one doesn't)
Please give me some suggestions thanks ~!
