This post is going to cover how to solve Orange sign of WAMP Server when it shows 2 of 3 services running when another MySQL is running.

Scenario1:  Another MySQL Server running on system

For Example: If you have MySQL server running for Apache TOMCAT on your system

Scenario 2: Now you successfully installed WAMP server

Scenario 3: You get orange WAMP sign in task bar with notification 2 of 3 services running.

POSSIBLE REASON:

The port 3306 is used by some other process like another MySQL Server.

SOLUTION:

Step 1: Go to command prompt

Step 2: Go to C:/ by cd ../../

Step 3: Type:  C:\>netstat -a -n | findstr 3306 and hit ENTER

You will get the port listening

Step 4: Change port from 3306 to someting else like 3307 or 3308 in my.ini file at location C:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql ....\

Note: You can Find and replace 3306 with server you want

Step 5: Stop All Services

Step 6: Start All Services

Finally you will get the GREEN in your WAMP.
