Group: Member Post Group: Newbie Posts: 7 Status:	I've messed my Ampps install, originally it took me ages to get it working, but haven't had time to work on my worpress site for a while and upgraded to Mavericks recently. I tried Ampps over the holidays and MYSQL would start but not Apache. So I tried an updating the version of Ampps as it is only 2.0,I thought maybe a Mavericks issue but half my folders got deleted before it said it couldn't overwrite tmp as it's in use, even if I reboot it's in use. So I tried restoring all the files & folders from time machine and now neither apache or MySQL works:( Any really simple instructions on where to start? I spent hours and hours last time trying to find one file that had a name in..why is this stuff soo complicated.maybe I can save the WP and start afresh. Appreciate any help I really would, sorry for being so stupid..

Group: Member Post Group: Super Member Posts: 1121 Status:	Hi, To fix mysql issue : Delete ONLY THE FILES in /Applications/AMPPS/var folder. I will repeat delete only the files as the folders are your database. Leave .cnf file as it is. Try starting MySQL then. Apache: Switch PHP version and try starting apache. ----------------------- Follow AMPPS on, Twitter : https://twitter.com/AMPPS_Stack Facebook : http://www.facebook.com/softaculousampps Google+ : https://plus.google.com/+AmppsStack

Group: Member Post Group: Newbie Posts: 7 Status:	Thanks Tidus, sorry but I don't understand what files you mean to delete. I tried moving various files and folders out of Var but none got mysql going again. Please see attached image, I took a screen grab of the files & folders..Ab1 is my wordpress folder, I couldn't see any cnf file or file. I presume with out mysql apache won't work I di try switching version but mysql isn't running.

Group: Member Post Group: Working Member Posts: 241 Status:	Hi, 1. Open Ampps Application -> MySQL Tab -> Configuration. 2. In [mysqld] section, add the following line: innodb_force_recovery = 1 3. Save the file and try starting MySQL 4. Remove that line which you just added and Save. ----------------------- Follow AMPPS on, Twitter Facebook Google+
