I’m really disappointed with MAMP Pro.

I just spent a week making a wordpress site.

Now MAMP Pro has expired.
I expected a graceful downgrade to plain MAMP.

But no. Now my wordpress site can’t find the database.

I never got a chance to export the database.. now I appear to be screwed.

Can anyone help me get back to where I was yesterday?

I started MAMP and in phpmyadmin there is no sign of the wordpress database.. just a ‘mysql’ database…

Does MAMP Pro delete the database when it expires ?
Are the files around somewhere so I could copy them over onto the db folder under mamp in the applications folder?

Thanks in advance for any help.

  1. In general MAMP Pro MySQL dbs are here : /Library/Application Support/appsolute/MAMP PRO/db/mysql/

    If not, search for your database name (or for the name of a wordpress table like “wp_posts“), it will give you the db files location.

    When you find the folder, copy it to MAMP db folder (shoud be something like /Library/Application Support/appsolute/MAMP/db/mysql/).

    If not, creates a db with a particular name in MAMP and then search for that name to find MAMP dbs location.
