# WordPress "not found" using MAMP

 * I can’t get WordPress to install locally on MAMP. Can anyone help?
 * I sadly uninstalled and AppZapped MAMP and reinstalled it. Now I can’t get WordPress
   to install. I can make a DB on PHPMyAdmin but I get “not found” when I try the
   WordPress install. 
 * I can’t get the PHP info? line to work either.
 * How do you troubleshoot MAMP?

 * More info:
 * MAMP seems fine. I can open the Start page, I can do the PHPinfo page, I can 
   create a database in PHPMyAdmin. 
 * But if I create a index.html with “hello” in it and put it into MAMP/htdocs/index.
   html I get: “The requested URL /MAMP/htdocs/ was not found on this server.”
 * Similarly WordPress doesn’t work.
 * I preferences for MAMP I have:
    Apache port: 8888; MySQL port: 8889 Apache: /
   Applications/MAMP/htdocs
 * and the URL is localhost:8888/MAMP/htdocs

 * Solved!
 * Stupid me. The localhost URL is **[http://localhost:8888](http://localhost:8888)**
   not localhost:8888/MAMP/htdocs
