Connecting to my local server? Please Help

Hello,
I have Wamp setup on my computer to test some database work I
am doing.
I have been able to connect to databases on my hosting
service but need to do some local testing.
Through many post on WAMP forum I have had no luck in finding
out why I can not connect to my server though Dreamweaver to my
database.
I follow all the instructions I think but I must be missing
something.
Config:
I do have Mcfee (bummer I know) with firewall but it says it
give full access to WAMP. I have even disabled it and tried.
I do not have Skype or IIS running or installed.
I only have apache installed once as far as I can tell.
I have password and name "root" setup.
I have databases built in my www folder.
All services are running in WAMP.
I try to connect though the normal Dreamweaver way.
>>Applications >>Databases>>My SQL
Connection>>
I input:
Connection name: DBCart
MySQL Server: localhost
Username: root
Password: mypassword
Hit the select button and get:
1)There is no testing server running
2) The testing server specified for this site does not map to
http://localhost/wamp/www/dynamicCart/test/_mmServerScripts/MMHTTPDB.php
URL.
Verify that the URL Prefix maps to the root of the site.
I have site set up :
Local root folder;
C:\Program_Files\wamp\www\dynamicEcart\Starting_Points\
Images;
C:\Program_Files\wamp\www\dynamicEcart\Starting_Points\images\
HTTP address:
http://localhost/wamp/www/dynamicEcart/Starting_Points
ALSO tried leaving this just at local host no luck
Testing Server;
Server Model; PHP Mysql
Access; local
Testing Server Folder:
C:\Program_Files\wamp\www\dynamicEcart\Starting_Points\
URL Prefix;
http://localhost/wamp/www/dynamicEcart/Starting_Points/
PHPMyAdmin info:
User: root
Host : localhost
Password :Yes
Global privileges : ALL PRIVILEGES
Grant : Yes
Please please please somebody walk me through this.
I have been trying for days.
I need to test my shopping cart.
I have even tried on my laptop with wamp and Dreamweaver and
can not connect.
It must just be something simple I am missing.

Ah Ha,
I figured it out.
I checked the Apache error log and saw that it was looking
for _mmServerScripts.
The file for my site was to deep in the www directory (to
many sub files). I moved it up so that apache could find the
_mmServerScripts and bingo I am golden.
I hope this helps anyone who runs into a similar problem.

  • Sync failure because itunes cannot connect to the sync server PLEASE HELP!!

    HELP! I cannot get my info back into my iphone.
    During sync I get an error message that says 'sync failure because itunes cannot connect to the sync server''
    I have had this problem today so i restored the iphone and it has synched the ipod portion but will not sync calenders, contacts , email accounts or bookmarks.
    The restore erased all of these and now i cannot replace them.
    Thank you in advance for any help in solving this crisis.

    I had the same problem (not from day one but within the past couple months). Anyway, I wish I had made note of everything that the quick-and wonderful-Apple support did when I finally decided to give them a call today-after getting tired of not being able to update calendars and contacts and not seeing any helpful info here-unfortunately, I continue that legacy (as I can't remember everything I had to do to fix-sorry) Ultimately involves creating a new user I called mine IPHONE...then doing some of this and that-and finally merging info and going to "Terminal" and typing in some code...then deleting some of the old files, Took about twenty-minutes on the phone. Sorry I didn't think ahead for others and write al this down...but just know the Apple people were great. I talked to a gal for about ten minutes very methodically trouble-shooting. When nothing worked she shifted me over to a real nice guy who calmly and politely guided me through all the steps to fix this annoying problem. I hate to say it, but just get on the phone and-if you have the same experience as me-you will get 5 Star treatment and your sync will work like a dream. Every time I have to contact Apple Support (which isn't that often) my experience is nothing but the best. Unbelievable customer service! Methodical, Personable, and truly knowledgeable! There is a fix and it works like a dream. Not that hard but you'll need customer service to walk you through it-as I can't (sorry I can't be of much help...) Good luck!

  • TS1398 I work at a hospital that has free wifi. My ipad mini connected just fine when I first bought it but now it displays unable to connect? What changed? Please help! My mini still connects at home, just not at work.

    My Ipad Mini will no longer connect to the wifi at work. It did when I first got it but now it just displays unable to connect. What gives? I work at a hospital and the wifi is not password protected and my mini connects fine at home. Please help!

    Some of these won't apply to your situation.
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button
