WampServer and Skype

Do you use Skype on your development machine? If so, you will likely experience a configuration conflict between the Apache instance in WampServer and Skype as Apache attempts to use ports 80 (for HTTP) and 443 (for HTTPS) to display web pages. By default, Skype is configured to use both these ports as alternatives for data transfer, so you will need to reconfigure Skype accordingly:

1. Open Skype and click on the Tools menu option and slide down to Options....
2. Select Advanced and then click on Connection.
3. Uncheck the Use port 80 and 443 as alternatives for incoming connections option and press Save.
4. Restart Skype.
