Ampps is turning into a pain in the rear to use. In January, when Ampps prompted that there was an update I was, for the first time, able use the automated update. But to my dismay phpmyadmin started throwing errors when I looked at any tables structure. I tried several things to fix it, including updating PHP, but with no success. So I just dealt with it. Then the update came down in February and guess what the automated update no longer worked. I decided I was to busy to mess with the stupid thing and kept using the crippled version I had.
While working with some other things I realized yesterday that Ampps was at version 3, great a new major version. So I decided to backup my entire database and my website files and do a clean install of Ampps. That was major mistake as now Apache does not start and I get 5 different errors about php. I have wiped the Ampps install from my PC 3 times (uninstall and then remove stray files) an no success. I restarted my PC after the last 2 wipes and tried redownloading Ampps on the last attempt.
I guess when the Ampps startup dialog started showing up half off the right side of the screen, I should have known this day was coming.
PS. Off Topic: Why on earth is the "textarea" (and iframe) for a new post 530px by 175px it should be at least 800px by 300px and it should be resizable. I would think softaculous would be very aware of website trends.
