I am using wamp to host a local version of my WordPress site. It was working gine until I restarted my computer and now I get this error.

This site can’t be reached

The connection was reset.

I tried restarting the services, and creating a new copy of this site under I different folder and the error still persists. My other non WordPress sites work fine.

Not sure what is going on so any suggestions would be great.

  • It sounds like your web server didn't start on boot. I don't know anything about windows, but make sure everything is running. – Halfstop Sep 12 '17 at 17:30
  • You say local copy of a WP site, so you have moved the site... [See the WordPress documentation, moving a wordpress site](https://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress) – RiggsFolly Sep 14 '17 at 10:52
  • I would also suggest creating a Virtual Host to run any WordPress site in. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23665064/project-links-do-not-work-on-wamp-server/23990618#23990618 – RiggsFolly Sep 14 '17 at 10:53

If you've moved your site to a different folder then the root has probably changed. Go to Preferences > Web Server and click on the folder next to Document Root, and navigate to the root directory that has your site then click on Select.

Also, make sure Apache and MySQL servers are running. Hope this helps.

You might have changed your port number from default port number.

Open with the port number that apache server is listening.

In your browser give "localhost:portNumber/WordPress"

Example: localhost:80/wordpress or localhost:8080/wordpress or localhost:8081/wordpress.

You Can check your port number from apache part config file.

I think its plugin issue from the codebase. Just rename the plugins name one by one in (wp-content/plugin/) folder and check.
