MAMP was one of the first apps I installed on my Macbook after switching from windows a few months ago. I had used XAMPP on XP and found MAMP which was basically the same thing. Mary-Ann: Try this http://cocoamysql.sourceforge.net for a phpmyadmin GUI replacement. It works great for what basic mysql stuff I use it for.

Well, I’ve never seen such a crap readme. No start page in htdocs either (only found out it was supposed to have one from trawling the net) and no phpMyAdmin. Good job Locomotive worked, guess I’ll be a RoR coder and just use my limited PHP for WP fiddling.

MAMP is the best thing ever. So easy to use. It’s great to set Dreamweaver up to a local server with PHP and MySQL, and whip up database tools with DW’s built in behaviors.

This app is a dream. Easy to set up and a great way to try things out. Absolutely indispensable.

That is a tough one to try and diagnose without more info. It’s been my experience that a fresh install of WordPress has always worked “out of the box.” Are you trying to import your database from another server?

Whenever I’ve tried this (with WordPress) I’ve ended up with loads of SQL errors at the top of the web page. I know no one can tell me exactly what’s wrong without more details but before I try it again is there anything obvious that server noobs are likely to miss?
