I'm trying to setup a local MAMP server using Macports, and all I'm running into are problems. MySQL (4) can't connect, http://localhost/ is DOA, and I have no real way to test my PHP installation. I'd like to have the following setup:

MySQL 5, PHP 5, Apache 2

I suspect that my main problem is daemons for these services not starting. Anyway, I really put my faith in Macports here, and it would mean a lot if someone could lend a hand.

sudo port install mysql5 +server sudo port install apache2 sudo port install php5 +apache2 It will show you the launchctl commands you need to enter to start mysql5 and apache2 at system startup.
