"localhost/wordpress/contact.php" -- It is wrong. you can create a new contact page then run this url "localhost/wordpress/contact" if your contact page name is "contact" If you want to create custom page follow this use this top of your contact.php page

<?php /* Template Name:Contact*/ ?>

Then go to dashboard -> pages -> edit contact page (if not exist create a new page) -> from right sidebar click template name and choose Contact. save and run
