• Hi there,
    I’m having serious problems with my install of wordpress or maybe its the apache server i’ve got running.
    the apache server is:
    XAMPP 1.4.9 with …
    Apache HTTPD 2.0.52,
    PHPMyAdmin 2.6.0 pl1
    my problems is that I can’t login to my local wordpress install to edit or write or infact do anthing.
    I can view my index.php, so it’s not an wp-config issue.
    Here is the error code i get from windows when i try to login:
    AppName: apache.exe AppVer: 2.0.52.0 ModName: php5ts.dll
    ModVer: 5.0.2.2 Offset: 000360fd
    See the thing is I was logged in (this took a looooong time to do, about 50 attemps) and when I was logged in, I could click on the ‘Edit this’ link on the post and get into wordpress that way…. but I’ve been logged out for some reason and I can’t get back in. It’s driving me insane!
    If I was to reinstall the apache server, would I lose my databases?
    Any guidence much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Mez

  • What version of WordPress are you using? From your error message, it looks like you’ve got PHP5 loaded and I think you’ll need to be using the nightly builds in order for WP to work with your server.

    Thanks for the quick reply.
    I’m using version 1.2.
    Just about to install v1.21 (mingus) to see if that fixes the problem.
    What are these ‘nightly builds’?
    Should I not bother with 1.21 but go for one these nightly ones instead?

    Nightly builds are test versions of WP 1.3. They’re not recommended for production environments but they’re the latest/greatest stuff from the developers. I’ve seen other posts in these forums that people have had problems with WP 1.2.x on PHP5 and –from what I can remember– most of them switched to a nightly build of WP 1.3 to get around whatever problems they were having. Of course, there are far more knowledgable people on these boards that might have other solutions for you as well.

    FWIW. Mezhopking, if you’r running XAMP, they have a quick script that can switch your PHP back to 4.3.9. See their documentation depending on OS you’re running. To keep my production site WP 1.2 running, I had to switch back to PHP 4.x.

    Test – sorry… checking post time.
