Reinstallation of WAMP, Wordpress, localhost (2 replies)

Hi,

A few days ago I had to format my pc and reinstall Windows 7 Pro 32bit. After I installed windows, I realised that I haven’t backed up my local WordPress site. The only thing I did (before formatting the pc) was to copy and paste the wamp folder that included all the folders, subfolders and files to a USB.


This is what I did after the windows installation:

First I installed wampserver (the version I used before the formatting: wampserver2.5-Apache-2.4.9-Mysql-5.6.17-php5.5.12-32b). After wampserver’s installation finished I copied and pasted the folder wamp from my USB to C: so I replaced the new wamp folder that was created. I copied and pasted the whole old wamp folder with all its folders, subfolders, files.

Before formatting the pc the wamp folder was in my C: drive (C:\wamp), this where I put it again and replaced the new one. After the copy-paste I didn’t do anything else, just opened wamp, turned to green, opened firefox, wrote localhost/shipyards and the site was loaded. I also went to Wordpress Dashboard and everything seemed to be in place (themes, listings, advanced searches, menus, etc.).

I use Directory Theme from premiumpress. The thing is that I’m facing some problems with the site (running in localhost) since the reinstallation.

So my question is: how will I reinstall WAMP and local wordpress site properly in order to be functional again ?

Please explain in details and in the right order.

Thank you in advance.
