Fix the problem of Wamp Server or XAMPP Localhost Shows Blank Page!!! After installed WAMP Server / XAMPP, if you have such errors like :
1 - localhost shows blank page.
2 - localhost and phpmyadmin page giving empty body.
3 - Your port 80 is actually used by Server Platinum ...
4 - The service has not been started.
5 - localhost is not working.
6 - wamp / apache server could not start.
The reason cause this error :
Your wamp server / XAMPP is using port 80, if your other program like antivirus or online movie player or skype is also using port 80, then your wamp / XAMPP will fail and not working. So you need to delete the program that using port 80!!!
Solution :
I am here to guide you how to check which program is using port 80, and how to delete it. Please follow the 7 steps below :
Step 1 - Open Command Prompt by clicking on Start button on desktop or press Windows button on keyboard, then type cmd into the "Search" box, then press Enter button on keyboard. Then you type netstat -aon into the black box, then press Enter button on keyboard. Then search for the digit "80" from the field of "Local Address".
Step 2 - Remember the PID number of the local address which has the digit "80"
Step 3 - Press CTRL + ALT + DELETE button keyboard to open the Task Manager. Then click "View" from top menu, then click "Select Columns...".
Step 4 - Then tick the box of "PID (Process Identifier)", then click "Ok" button.
Step 5 - Search the PID number that you remember just now, and click it.
Step 6 - Click "end Process" button to delete it.
Step 7 - Click on the WAMP Server / XAMPP icons which is near the time of your computer there, then click "Restart All Services".
That's all. Hopefully it can help to solve your problem. If you don't mind, please write a comment below to tell me which of your program is using port 80. My case is QVOD online movie player, haha.

Hey Zac, great post.
My problem is different though.
I can get to localhost-index and i can open a site but whenever I click on a menu tab of any of my local site, I then get the white blank page and when I try to coma back to the home page, I get a blank page as well.
All my local site behave the same.
Just before the problem occured, I have installed WinSCP, a program to harmonize all the files located in our local machine with our distant server.
Any ideas

I guess you can get to index 1st time is because your browser is save it inside the cache. You can try clean up the browser's cache. I have no idea about your problem, sorry I can't help in that.
