wamp server not running even after installing msvcr110.dll

Question

I installed wamp server 2.5 in my windows 8 laptop but during the process I got error of missing msvcr110.dll. So I googled and found out that some redistributable can be installed from microsoft and then wamp server functions properly. But to my surprise even after that it did not function properly showing the tray icon in yellow where I could not even click.

Answer 1

After googling for 150 links and trying all processes for 4 hours, I permutated a way to solve this issue. First I had to uninstall wamp and remove all the wamp references and then had to download 2 dlls

1) msvcr110.dll
2) msvcp110.dll

After that I copied them in "C:\\Windows\\System32". Now I installed the 64 bit wamp as my Laptop is 64 bit. This time I installed wamp without any errors. Even the wamp icon in right bottom tray is green.

Answer 2

我通过安装Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2012来解决了这个完全相同的问题。我已经安装了32位和64位Microsoft Visual C ++可再发行组件，但是尽管有如此之多的答案，但仅凭这一点还不足以提供丢失的DLL文件。互联网声称。

PHP needs the x86 version, the x64 version does not work

Answer 4

This is a common problem with users of wamp server. The issue is installing the correct version of the VC++ redistributable framework for your system. Is your Win 8 installation on top of a 32bit or 64bit architecture?

Note that wamp 2.5 will require VC11 as well as VC10 (whereas previous versions of wamp only required VC10).
