Posted:  09 Mar 2005 12:46
In case you want to access the Control Center without being asked for a password, edit the file c:\Program Files\e-novative\WAMP\Apache\conf (the path might be different on your system depending on where you have installed >e-novative> WAMP to):

Delete or comment out (by prepending # to each line) these four lines:
Code:


  AuthType Basic
  AuthName ">e-novative> WAMP Control Center Login"
  AuthUserFile "c:/Programme/e-novative/WAMP/Apache/conf/wamp_password"
  Require valid-user

Again, the path in the third line may differ in your setup.

Reboot or just restart the Apache service by
Code:


net stop apache
net start apache

Note that future versions of >e-novative> WAMP will have Stop WAMP and Start WAMP Start menu entries to make restarting easier for you.

Note that you should ONLY do this when you are on a computer not accessible over the internet! You don't want everybody to be able to sneak around your Control Center.
