Re: Cake NooB trying to install on MAMP

I had same matter on my macbook pro why i first install cakephp 2.1 with MAMP

When you unzip cakephp 2.1, .htaccess files aren't copy in directories...

you should see 3 different  .htaccess in the root of cakephp, another in app and the third in webroot...

You need to show hidden files in the finder to see these.

You can use FokLift which allows to see hideen files with the view menu

Don't forget that these 3 .htaccess are different :

in the root of CakePHP: 

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

   RewriteEngine on

   RewriteRule    ^$ app/webroot/    [L]

   RewriteRule    (.*) app/webroot/$1 [L]

</IfModule>

in app Directory

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

    RewriteEngine on

    RewriteRule    ^$    webroot/    [L]

    RewriteRule    (.*) webroot/$1    [L]

</IfModule>

in webroot directory

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

    RewriteEngine On

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [QSA,L]

</IfModule>

I spend too 1 hour to understand why CakePhp won't run on my MAMP ...

Hope this help
