MAMP
MAMP is Mac Apache, MySQL and PHP, in one convenient package.
As of the time of this writing, MAMP 1.4.1 (the most recent stable release) currently contains the following components:
•Apache 2.0.59
• MySQL 5.0.19
• PHP 4.4.4 & 5.1.6
• eAccelerator 0.9.5
• phpMyAdmin 2.7.0-pl2
• Zend Optimizer 3.0.1
• SQLiteManager 1.1.3
• Freetype 2.1.9
• t1lib5.1.0
• curl 7.14.0
• jpeg 6b
• libpng-1.2.5
• gd 2.0.28
• libxml 2.6.22
• libxslt 1.1.15
That's pretty impressive for a basically one-click install. Fairly current,fairly robust, and pretty damn cool. A Windows workalike is XAMPP, which is being ported to Mac now, but the beta is only available for Intel Macs. WAMPServer is also fairly popular on Windows.Installation
To install, simply download the appropriate copy from this page and once unzipped, mount the .dmg file. Then drag into Applications (it MUST be installed directly under the Applicationsdirectory else it will fail to run) and you're good.
Running MAMP

If you're a widget fiend, it comes pre-installed with a Dashboard Widget, so you can use that instead. They both require the admin password to invoke.After entering your admin password, the two servers (Apache and MySQL) will transition from red light to green, indicating a successful start. By default you'll also be taken to the start page forMAMP, from which you can access PHPMyAdmin as well as get some helpful information and links.
Basic Changes
