Hooray for success!
It was an rather painful evolution running through the steps correctly and getting the ‘meh, you’re wrong’ page… I’ll give MAMP another shot here with the criteria you suggested and check my firewall.
Glad it worked out, have a good one mate!

I have been having precisely the same issue with the same exact parameters, think it may have something to do with the WP update? Because I was having no issues with getting WP to run locally through MAMP in the previous version XDSome things I’ve tried with no avail (listing this to hopefully either reinforce the ticket or keep you from repeating the same actions I did) are…
– Moving everything to C:
– Various input for HOST in setup-config.php (localhost:8888 seemed promising at first then white screened)
– Both, MAMP default ports, & given port values
– Default DB user account (wordpress/root/root/localhost)
new DB user (wordpress/root/root/localhost:8888)
alternate new user (wordpress/zezzer/password/localhost)
All with full permissions and each tried with the variations of HOST parameter– Editing the wp-config.php to coincide with each attempt
– Reinstalling MAMP & WPFollowed the instructions to the letter, and still hitting the same error message.
On the other hand, I did get it to run on WAMP (though I personally would rather use MAMP) with little to no hassle. Same process for the most part
-setup wamp
-put the WP file in E:/wamp/www
-Open browser, type ‘localhost/wordpress’ in the navbar
-Fill out the config set up, DB name ‘sparkle_fungus_or_something’ user ‘root’, password make blank, host ‘localhost’maybe that will help for the time being if you have a project to knock out
