MAMP localhost cannot connect to database

  • Typing localhost:8888 into my Chrome browser gives me a listing of all of my WordPress sites in my htdocs folder. However when I click on the link for any of the sites, I get the “Error establishing a database connection” message. This is true for any of the links in the listing. This is a new problem for me

  • Possibly the database server process (mySQL) is not running. Does the task manager show it running ? Do your website error and log files say anything, like we know there is an error, but what kind of error ?
    Can MAMP support help ?

    Is MAMP running? Have you updated anything? On a Mac?
