WAMP - cant access site Admin

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Things have been working well using WAMP and the RASA2 template but all of a sudden, I cannot get through to the admin site at all. The front end works fine. I was in the Global Configuration of the admin putting in meta data text and changing some of the things to match my live site - only thing I can think of that I was playing with that might cause an issue. I was making changes to the template colours via Template Manager prior to that so don't think anything would have happened there.

Other than that, when going to the administrator page I just get Unable to Connect - using Firefox. Doesn't work in other browsers either.

Any ideas?

Hi

Can you connect to other local hosted sites?

Yes can connect to other sites on the WAMP server - front and back-end. It's just the Rasa template that I can't access the administrator - very weird.

I might have to reinstall it again and see if that fixes it up

I've given up trying and have reinstalled Rasa on a live server. But still wondering why the admin site stopped being accessible on WAMP

Is it the database error when a site can't connect to the mysql database?

Cam you paste the error exactly as shown on screen

Do you remember what you were adding exactly?

There is no error - its just a firefox screen saying as per below. I turned errors on by opening the configuration file but doesn't come up with anything - still can't access admin.

"Unable to connect

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
