Jul 22, 2020 MAMP (which comes with no pronunciation guide and so I’m assuming it’s pronounced “potato”) is the second most tenured local server that I know of.

The goal of this project is to provide a secure, efficient and extensible server that provides HTTP services in sync with the current HTTP standards.

This was a common problem with past versions of MAMP and it continues to happen for some users in version 4.x. Fortunately, the fix is easy. The problem is that when exiting MAMP the MySQL processes continue to run and are not stopped. This post has two solutions. The first solution of killing running processes has worked for me pretty much all the time. The second solution is from one of the comments below.

  1. Quit MAMP. You may have to force quit when this happens as it does not shut down correctly.
  2. To show any MySQL processes currently running, open Terminal and from the command prompt run the command below.
  3. Next, kill the MySQL processes by running the command below.
  4. To verify they no longer exist, pgrep for mysql again and you should not have any processes returned.
  5. Now Launch MAMP again and MySQL Server should start normally.

Alternative Solution

If the above solution does not work, this method should.

  1. Stop Mamp and kill the mysql processes as above.
  2. Rename the ib_logfileN (N is the log numbers) files to something else. Don’t delete these as you may need to return to them. The path to these files may be different on your system. On my system, I would do the following:
  3. Restart MAMP and MySQL should start correctly.

MAMP is a free distribution package that makes it easy to install Apache Web Server, PHP, and MySQL. Before installing MAMP, you should turn off any other web servers and instances of MySQL you have running on your Windows machine.

  2. Run the downloaded file (e.g., MAMP_MAMP_PRO_4.1.exe) and click through the installation wizard.
    1. If prompted, you do not need to install MAMP PRO or Apple Bonjour.

Careful!

Be very careful to follow these steps exactly. MAMP can be finicky. If something goes wrong, often the easiest thing to do is uninstall MAMP and start the process over again.

To run MAMP...

  1. Navigate to C:MAMP in Windows Explorer and open MAMP.exe. If you get a security alert, allow access. You should see a window like this one: The servers (Apache Server and MySQL Server) should have automatically started. If they did not, start them by clicking on Start Servers.
  2. Open MAMP Preferences:
  3. Change the Apache port to 8888:
  4. Click on Open WebStart Page: The following page should open in your browser:
