I have been running Wampserver 2.5
I want to upgrade to the latest version, so here's what I did:
* Followed instructions at [wampserver.aviatechno.net]
* Updated all VC Distributions and ran the check_vcredist.exe program with success
* I upgraded to version 3.0.3 as instructed
* During installation, it wanted to install into c:\wamp64. My wamp is in c:\wamp (it is a 64-bit version though), so I changed it to c:\wamp.
* After installing, my php.ini in c:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.4.9\bin\php.ini disappeared.
* Wampserver icon in taskbar is red and says "None of 2 services running."
* But I can see in services.msc that both wampmysqld64 and wampapache64 are both running.
* And I can see the Wampserver home page with all of my projects and aliases, etc.
* But when I try to run my site, I get an error saying that mysql_init() is not a valid function even though Wampserver says that the mysqli extension is loaded for php and phpinfo() says mysqlnd is installed.
* phpinfo() also says that the loaded configuration file is (none) rather than my php.ini
WTF, Wampserver? I thought this was supposed to be an in-place upgrade? The instructions clearly say, "your local sites and databases will not be affected."
1. How do I get the icon to stop being red?
2. Where does Wampserver expect to find php.ini now? Did it delete mine just out of spite or is there a reason?
3. How do I get Wampserver to load my php.ini file?
4. How do I get Wampserver to recognize that mysqlnd is loaded?
4. Why is it that EVERY SINGLE TIME I upgrade Wampserver, it's a complete clusterfuck?
Oh, also, the Wampserver homepage wouldn't show the MySQL version because wampmanager.conf was missing a space after the equals sign (sigh).
