How to install Apache, MySQL and PHP in OS X

Network Administration - Using MAMP, you can quickly and easily install Apache, PHP and MySQL on your Mac. Each package can be installed separately, but MAMP has several advantages to fix these individual settings. Besides, MAMP will not change or interfere with the existing version of Apache running on the Mac operating system. If Apache / MySQL / PHP is not needed anymore, delete the MAMP directory and then everything will return to its original state. This article will guide you through the initial installation and installation process .

  1. The first thing you need to do here is download MAMP. Open the .DMG file, then review the registry and click the Agree button.
