Back again. Got it to work now, but had to reinstall MAMP and create a new database. The files must be in the “htdocs” in the MAMP folder. If they’re in /sites, MAMP won’t find them. Also, the ports need to be set to the MAMP defaults (8888 and 8889). Also, turn off “personal web sharing” (appears to be simply “web sharing” in Leopard) in system prefs. It worked for me in the end, though it took a while to get there. Good luck, spiritbased. ??

I’m having the same problem. I get the same message, though I have another site with some very (very) basic php that works fine, so I dunno. There’s a good tutorial you probably already saw (if you had it installed previously) at:

Doesn’t work for me, though. I’m on 10.5 too, but I tried it on my old machine (running 10.4) with the same results. Let me know if you figure something out! ??
