I have tried that now, still the same. Could it be something wrong with firefox and flock? Maybe i should reinstall wamp Server.
Hi, I have the same problem and I would love to hear if there is any solution.
I’m working with wapm5:
Apache 2.2.17
PHP 5.3.4
MySQL 5.1.53
My OS is Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
I have created the database for wordpress.
I have unzipped the wordpress folder in wamp/www/
I have tried:
1.- http://localhost/ under your projects click wordpress
2.- http://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php (previously I have changed wp-config-sample to wp-config and replaced database name, as it was all I needed)
In both cases It apparently begins to do something and below it says “Waiting for localhost …”, but after more than 3 minutes continue to do nothing and below it says ” Done “
I have researched over the last 2 days and I could not find the cause.
Thanks in advance for your help..

I managed to make it work. I copied the wordpress folder in the php folder. I had setup it up in dreamweaver as my php test server http://localhost/php/wordpress/wp-login.php
Hi danfix, thanks for the reply but I’m not sure what I have to do.
I’m sorry if my questions seem silly, but I don’t know much (actually almost nothing) and I’m trying to learn.
Where did you copy the wordpress folder?, in C:/wamp/bin/php/php5.3.4 ?
I don’t understand what did you do.
You need to add wordpress in www folder not bin

Hi danfix
I could not answer before, I thank you for trying to help, but I’ve tried all that you tell me.
My problem is that when I start the wp-config, no matter where, nothing happens and I have no error that tells me what may be happening.
I think there may be a permissions conflict, but as I said, I have no error, so I don’t know what is happening.
I’m sorry but english is not my language, so ..
Thanks any way.
