WAMP works fine on my PC.

I've created a Wordpress install on D:/wamp/www, replacing the default WAMP index.php, and I've created a new database.

I've exported the database from the remote site, replaced any instances of www.example.com/ with localhost/, and imported this edited database into the db I created earlier.

I've created /wp-config.php and entered correct db connection details.

However http://localhost loads a blank white screen, with no source code.

I've set define('WP_DEBUG', true); in wp-config.php, and no errors show.

There is nothing in D:\wamp\logs\apache_error.log indicating what the problem is.

Any idea what the problem is? Thanks.

    Did you turned on WP_DEBUG on? Any errors?

    please modify the wp-config.php change the define('WP_DEBUG', false); to define('WP_DEBUG', true); and check for the error.

    Yep. Sorry forgot to mention, I have, and nothing shows on the front end, or Apache logs.

    Did you grant permissions to the user created to access the new database?

    I was using the global root user, but creating a dedicated user account, and granting permissions, made no change.

Reset to default

Could replacing the default index.php be the issue? Other posts suggest problems with that and the WAMP install instructions talk about putting PHP files in a subdirectory.

  • I've upgraded from WampServer 2.4.* to 2.5, and have set up a vhost http://mylocalhost which loads D:\wamp\www\mylocalhost, and the issue remains.

Found the error.

I was creating a new WP install, importing the DB, but forgot to copy the themes into /wp-content !

    That would make a difference! Glad it's sorted. Maybe accept your answer to round things off?

replace the links in database (wp_options) and delete .htaccess. check if you have the right theme active.
