Have you checked the Apache error logs?
If the server isn't starting because of an error, then it would be logged there. In WAMP you can left click the WAMP system tray icon, "Apache", and "Apache error log".

You can also try opening a command prompt and typing:

net start wampapache

This attempts to start the server. If there is an error this should show what it is.

When i click on the apache error log as you said it bought out a notepad which is blank and when i type net start wampapache in cmd it showed SYSTEM ERROR 5 HAS OCCURRED. ACCESS IS DENIED

If you'r using Vista or Win7 you need to execute the command as admin. Right click on the command prompt icon and select "Run as admin".

I have run the cmd as admin type net start wampapache this was what appear
THE WAMPAPCHE SERVICE IS STARTING...
THE WAMPAPCHE SERVICE COULD NOT BE STARTED.
A SERVICE SPECIFIC ERROR OCCURRED: 1
MORE HELP IS AVAILABLE BY TYPING NET HELPMSG 35470
so i typed it and this what appear
A SERVICE SPECIFIC ERROR OCCURRED: ***

That's odd. When you type in localhost in your browser, do you get an empty page or a page telling you it can't connect?

Could there be another HTTP server running on the machine? IIS, for example?

Try changing the port your Apache server runs on. You can do that by opening the file "C:\wamp\bin\ap ache\Apache2.2. 11\conf\httpd.c onf" in notepad and changing the number in the following line to something else. I'd recommend something around 50000, to avoid conflicts.

Listen 80

Then try to start the server.

[simon2x1]

i have try it i replace Listen 80 with Listen 50000 it is still the something that is it was an empty page that display and there was no message on the page telling you it can't connect?

Did you use the proper port in your URL? If you are connecting to a local HTTP server on port 50000 the URL should be: http://localhost:50000/
