localhost error code 500 'MAMP'

  • Hello all!

    Yesterday I downloaded WordPress and successfully setup my local dev environment using MAMP. I was able to get my database exported from my live site and imported locally. I was able to login and see my site, but to my surprise this morning, I am not able to access the site anymore. I am however able to access my localhost, but once I select and enter the root folder I get the always unwelcome “localhost is currently unable to handle this request. error 500”.

    I am not sure what’s happened since yesterday to cause this and I’ve searched the forums, but alas, I am at a loss. I appreciate any and all help.

  • I’m having the same problem, although it happened to me after replacing the contents of my document root which should have no affect on server functionality. If I figure it out, outrun, I’ll let you know what I did.
