Hello,

I have a production site up and running. I need to have a mirrroring of the site on my local PC with WAMP.

I did the following:

1. Copy the complete directory of Drupal (including the /site directory) onto my localsite.
2. Copy the database on my local PC and importing it in MySQL

However, it does not work.

When I load the homepage, I get a "problem loading page error", with the explanation "The connection was reset" error.

When installing Drupal the standard way, there is no problem and all is fine.

Any hints? Thanks in advance.

two thing of note with a new WAMP install

1) ensure you are using PHP 5.2.9. This can be done in the WAMP PHP settings in the task bar.

2) ensure you alter settings.php ($db_url) to point to the new database on the localhost
