Laragon 5 currently does not support changing the password for MySQL8 in the GUI Menu. Here is how you do it.

For Laragon 5 with MySQL 8 with no password

Login to the laragon mysql from the console (Click the Terminal button on the Laragon GUI interface)

mysql -u root -p

Just hit enter when it prompts for password

Then to set the password, in this case, to "secret"

ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'secret';

To go back to no password with MySQL8

ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '';

Best WAMP Server for Local WordPress – Laragon is Easy by David McCan
Everyone doing web development or training up in web technologies needs a local test server. You know that testing on a live site is risky. Building websites or evaluating themes and plugins? Yes, you need one too. Are you interested in WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, or PHP? If so, and you are running Windows, then you need a WAMP stack.

It may sound complicated, and if you had to install Apache, MySQL, and PHP from scratch individually, it might be. However, there are packages that bundle these programs together to take the pain out of the setup process. They come with an installer and preconfigure all the settings for you. They have a “control panel” that serves as a launcher and provide quick access to options and settings. I’ve evaluated all of them and used many of them. In this article, I’m going to tell you about Laragon WAMP. It is free and it is the easiest to setup and use. Read on to learn about the Laragon WAMP package, how to install it, and how to install WordPress using Laragon’s “quick create” feature.

Hello Laragon developer(s),

I'm using Laragon for local web development. I was wondering if there are still updates planned for Laragon?

Kind regards,

Hans S.

Hello,

I am using laragon for my web development. I am using it for portability and simplicity. Now, I am facing an issue. In my localhost (development computer) the SSL is working good. but when I try to access the app in other computer using https SSL it is not working. To illustrate... https://localhost or https://192.168.1.100 is working good in development computer, but when i access it from other computer, https://192.168.1.110, SSL does not work. only http://192.168.1.100 is working.

pls help, any settings, tweaks to be done to make it work.

thanks

example:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/assets/default/css/w3.css"> does not get loaded
<link rel="stylesheet" href="assets/default/css/style.css"> gets loaded
both files are existing in the subfolder (...virtualhost/assets/default/css...)

is this a php/apache issue or laragon?

You can add Xdebug to Laragon easily.
Method 1: Using phpinfo() & Xdebug Wizard

Copy phpinfo() content:
http://localhost/?q=info

Paste the copied data to the form in the Xdebug Wizard page
https://xdebug.org/wizard.php

Click "Analyse my phpinfo() output", and follow the instructions.

Note: Their instructions will ask for "4. Restart the webserver" but with Laragon, you just need to click Reload button.

Hi,
MySQL import text.sql
How to deactivate option that says more or less "stop batch loading import when error found" ?

L'import d'un fichier sql. s'arrête. On me recommande de désactiver l'option "s'arrête lors d'erreurs en mode par lots..." Je ne trouve pas cette option.

Merci pour votre aide

With Laragon, adding another Apache version is very easy.

Very easy huh. That's all forks!

First, a huge thank you to Leo for his generous contribution: Laragon.
I thought I'd give it a try with GoAccess, the log analyzer.
Anyone have success using this combination? If not, what would be the best package manager or compiler to make the GoAccess executable?
Thanks in advance.

I really don't like notepad++ as an editor, is there any ways of removing this ?

Hello everyone,

I love Laragon for its simplicity. Using SSL in localhost (https://localhost) works perfectly. Unfortunately, when I try to access my local machine which is https://192.168.1.32 on LAN it shows an error.

'This connection is not private' in iPad Safari and in Firefox 'This connection is untrusted'. Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead in windows 11 Chrome.

My application needs the camera to work and the camera can operate only in https/SSL connection.

Can anyone provide a link or help me solve this problem?

Thanks everyone

I created a Wordpress site with Web->Quick application tab. It creates the application and I can visit it and I can see the wordpress files in the right folder under Laragon/dswww, but when I try to login to the Wordpress admin: mysite/wp-admin it fails with the error "The requested URL was not found on this server."
Any idea?
Thx,
I. Lesher

You can also add/update phpMyAdmin easily yourself. Just download from its official site (https://www.phpmyadmin.net/downloads) and extract to {LARAGON_DIR}\etc\apps\phpMyAdmin.
That's all.

Now, you can acess phpMyAdmin at:
http://localhost/phpmyadmin
