WAMP中的localhost无法正常工作

Question

i use WAMP 2.2. installed and the ison is green. problem is the , when I enter locahost in URL , it doesn't work but when I enter 127.0.0.1 it works.

what is the reason ?

Answer 1

Chances are that either:

A. Your Windows Hosts file does not have this entry:

127.0.0.1 localhost

B. Or this entry is 1st (comes before the above), and Apache is Listening on IPv4 only:

::1 localhost

In the second case, just remove or comment out the entry.

Hosts file path:

C:Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

You'll need to edit Hosts file via 'Run as admin' on Notepad.

Answer 2
