I am trying to install WAMP from wampservice.com The download and installation go smoothly, but when I try opening http://localhost/, the screen appears totally blank.

Why do you think is that?

Thank you in advance! I am an absolute newbie to Drupal and using http://localhost/.

This can happen if IIS is running, check services.msc for the "World Wide Publishing Service", disable and try again.

Also make sure you are not running SKYPE (there is an option to change the skype port).

Close all additional running program to minimise chance of conflict.

Failing that you should test your port 80 from wamp menu > Apache > Service and let us know the results.

I use WAMP, it's a great tool. Click on the gauge icon in the taskbar, and select "Start All Services" - see if that works.

Check the permissions on your /wamp/www/ directory..

I had a similar issue when I installed WAMP to C:\Program Files\ instead of C:\

An other solution could be to simple alter the appache httpd.conf. You can acces this file from the wamp menu > Apache > httpd.conf

Next alter the

#Listen 12.34.56.78:80
Listen 80

To for example

#Listen 12.34.56.78:7080
Listen 7080

Restart wamp and services then type http://localhost:7080 and you'll have wamp up and running

I did the following:

1. Downloaded the wampserver (32 or 64 bit): http://www.wampserver.com/en/; than installed it.
   

2. In the Skype: goto Tools > Options… > Advanced > Connection and uncheck the checkbox which says “Use Port 80 and 443 as alternatives for incoming connections”

3. Push the Win+R for a run-console and write: "inetmgr"; hit Enter;
   [ this is the Internet Information Service Manager (IIS-Manager)]
   

4. Under Sites you can see Default Web Site, right click on it and Select EDIT BINDINGS.
   
5. Edit HTTP binding port from 80 to 81.
   
6. Open your browser and type: //localhost:81/yoursite.
   You should be able to access your local sites without any problems
   
7. I let in my httpd.conf the port setting as it was:
   "#Listen 12.34.56.78:80
   Listen 80"
8. I went to my favourite browser and just typed: localhost
   ;) Wow!
