I am attempting to upgrade from wamp version 3.1.4 to version 3.1.9 so that I can subsequently add newer versions of PHP, etc. However, when I run the update file, after my services all return and the icon is green again, wampmanager still reports the old version. The 'about' menu still shows the 3.1.4 version, and my website no longer functions correctly. It instead shows the wampserver config page, rather than the homepage when I go to the URL.
I haven't done anything other than attempt to run the update file. I didn't install anything else.
Any assistance is appreciated.
1 - Windows version used (Specify version number AND whether 32 or 64 bit)
Windows Server 2016 64 bit
2 - Version WampServer (Specify version number AND whether 32 or 64 bit)
3.1.4 64 bit
3 - Apache Version
2.4.35
4 - PHP Version
7.2.10
5 - MySQL Version
5.7.23
5a - MariaDB version if applicable
10.3.9
6 - What color is the WampServer icon (in the notification area of the taskbar)
Green
When all goes well it should be green, but it may be red or orange.
If the WampServer icon is NOT GREEN please ensure you have looked at these files :-
a - Apache error log
-- ( wampmanager -> Apache -> Apache error log )
-- ( wampmanager -> Apache -> Apache access log )
b - MySQL error log ( wampmanager -> MySQL -> MySQL log )
b1 - MariaDB error log ( wampmanager -> MariaDB -> Mariadb log )
c - PHP error log ( wampmanager -> PHP -> PHP error log )
Depending on the error, one or all of the above may be empty so also look at
d - The windows event viewer
--- Windows Key + R to launch the run dialog then enter eventvwr.exe and press the OK button
--- - On the left side of the windows click 'Windows Logs -> Applications'
--- - Look for the names 'Apache Service' or 'MySQL' in the Source column which have a error symbol in the first column.
