cags Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 My guess is your script uses short open tags and they are disabled on your wamp server (as they really should be) and enabled on your live server. Does you script have <? rather than <?php anywhere in it?

martin.hitch Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 yes it does use the short tags <? i went through and changed all the short tags to long tags on all the php scripts (gotta love find and replace ) i ran it again and got Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'your_name'@'localhost' (using password: YES) in G:\~~WEBSERVER~~\wamp\www\martin.site11.com\include\database.php on line 24 Access denied for user 'your_name'@'localhost' (using password: YES) i had a look over line 24 of the database script and could find nothing that i would need to change to allow access (after all so far all i have changed is <? to <?php) here is the code that is having the access issue so now i have another error that i dont know how to deal with Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/181168-solved-wamp-displaying-php-code/#findComment-955814 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cags Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Assuming the code is unchanged from the live server I imagine the password/hostname/username is different on your localhost than it is on your live server. Somewhere in your code you will probably have define('DB_SERVER', "something"); etc for each of server, user, password and database name. These will all need changing to be appropriate for your WAMP server.
