Running Wordpress on port other than 80

Question

I have apache running on port 1024 and WAMP Server is running fine. But when I try to run Wordpress at localhost:1024 the install wont work.

I have tried everything I can think of but I cannot get it running. Anyone had this problem?

Thanks Daniel.

You must edit the file wp-config.php and change the following:

define('WP_HOME','http://localhost:1024/');
define('WP_SITEURL','http://localhost:1024/');

Wordpress will natively run on any port apache runs on (I use various ports for test servers daily)

Make an index.php with something like

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

And test if you can display the page. If the page doesn't display then your apache settings are misconfigured. (Check /etc/apache2/sites-available/default)
