- Configuration: The color of the symbol corresponds to the status the server is in:
- Red– Can mean the WAMP server is temporarily deactivated or there is some sort of hindrance that is not allowing it to work.
- Orange– Can mean it is idle or, like red, there is something that didn’t get installed properly.
if you have this problem, you can check your wamp port because it may duplicate port 80 with your other project.
solve: go to change default port 80 to another one.C:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.2.22\conf\httpd.confopen file
httpd.conf and edit Listen 80 to your requirement
