Hi,
You also have to add port no. in your wordpress database. Try this: login to localhost:8888/phpmyadmin Now go to your database and select wp_options Add port number in your site url and home. example: change http://127.0.0.1:80/(your_website) to http://127.0.0.1:8888/(your_website). We do not recommend you to change port number because every script from Softaculous panel will install on default port 80. |

Any recommendation on either stopping the native OS X Apache server or changing its port so I can use 80 on AMPPS? |

OK, I tried both proposed solutions — I still got a refused connection after editing the database, even after restarting Apache & SQL. So I put the config files back to default & killed the native Apache server & restarted the AMPPS servers, still no joy. For some reason it appears AMPPS is still listening on port 8888; I can reach the http://localhost:8888/ampps/index.php?but not http://localhost/ampps/index.php?
What might be binding to that port? I'm positive the Apache config file is back to the default settings. |
