Im on a macbook with a fresh installation of Lion on which I just installed MAMP 2 from here. The MAMP startup page loads fine.
Next I uncomment this line in httpd.conf
# Virtual hosts
Include /Applications/MAMP/conf/apache/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
And then add a few directives in the httpd-vhosts.conf so that it looks like this below.
Now things start going wrong. When I restart MAMP Apache and / or MySQL refuse to start. The MAMP panel becomes very slow to react. I click preferences and that window only opens 1 min later. Any settings I try to change are equally slow, for example changing the MAMP document root, etc.
When I try to edit the conf files with Textedit I'll get error messages saying that something else is trying to edit the file. The file becomes locked, do I want to save anyway? Then I don't have the rights to edit the file.
I have reinstalled MAMP half a dozen times and this keeps happening over and over. All really weird stuff.
Anyone know what could cause this or how I can diagnose things?
