Edit Question

tell me more detail about your question , you need to debug below stuff first is it apache not starting or mysql . it is easy to check click on the wamp icon at tool bar and click on the apache or mysql and go to services . if it show stop service enable than its perfectly running fine . so tell me more info - dilip

mostly wamp will not work if port set to use for the wamp services is used already by some other application
suppose apache defaultly use port 80 . and skype also use same port . if you want to start wamp you need make offline to skype . same for mysql .if your mysql service port not used by other application than you can try following solution ::

so you should clear db log file

for that
-> stop mysql service
-> remove log files from mysql data folder
-> start the mysql service again and check it
<br/>
1. stop the mysql
-> go to wamp icon at tool bar and click on the mysql and services and stop the service . but in your case your server is not running but you can stop wamp

2. remove log files form the mysql data folder
-> go to the mysql data folder at wamp folder where you installed at .
go to wamp (folder)---> bin ---> mysql --> mysql5.1.33(your version folder ) --> data

dont delete . first backup "data" folder if any problem occur you should be able to recover it.

now at "data" folder you can delete all files (i am saying files not folder at "data" folder)

files like ib_logfile0 , ib_logfile1 , ibdata1 , mysql-bin.000001 , mysql-bin.000002 etc..

and after delete start the server and see its working or not

Hope it work !!
