Wamp doesn't work after installing with InstantRails

Rails
1

Hello.
I installed ROR with InstantRails and it works fine.
But later, when I tried to access to localhost via wamp, wamp didn’t
work.
(I have previous projects sitting in ‘C:\wamp\www’ folder, and I used
to access them via wamp’s ‘http://localhost/’)
Wamp server starts up on the tray bar as usual but it goes to offline
immediately.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
Thank you.

Thank you.

You obviously won’t be able to run them both at the same time as they
are both web servers. If you reboot and run wamp does it work?

That’s untrue, unless Windows is even more broken than I thought. I
routinely have 4 Web servers running on separate ports on my Mac (Apache
on 80, CUPS on 631, Webmin on 10000, and Webrick on 3000). They’re
independent and should not interfere with each other at all.

Is this true given the fact that they both use Apache (which
admittedly I did not mention)?

Although if both wamp and instantrails want to run separate instance
of apache on port 80 then only one of them can succeed. Presumably
either of them could be configured to listen on a different port.

Never having used InstantRails, I didn’t realize that it used Apache.
But as Fred said, if it’s on a clear port, then it shouldn’t interfere
with another Apache instance.
