WordPress Setup Wizard

When I finish setting up my site, and the wizard prompts me to click on the link, it just takes me to a blank page. Could I be having a port issue?

Greetings Joseph,

Did you make sure that all services loaded/ran correctly?

Also check the hostfile to see if it was updated.

Also what OS are you running Desktop Server on?

Mark

Thanks for the help Mark. I downloaded xampp instead. I had a few issues with xampp too but eventually got it to work correctly. I had to get skype off of port 80 first but it all worked out. Thank you once again.
