I've just joined the LAMS Community and have a mac at home which I'd like to try using the LAMS software on. From the earlier messages re installation on a mac it kind of puts me off trying to use the easy-to-use installer on my mac.

Do you have a set of step-by-step instructions for a non-techie like me to install on Mac OS 10.3.9? If so, then I'll volunteer to try out your software for the mac

Hi Janet,

It ain't that bad :-)

As you can see in the previous postings the problem occurs if you already had other software (MySQL specifically) installed and configured.

If that's not the case, you shouldn't have any problems.

Nevertheless, I understand your concern. If you want to use LAMS without having to install it, just get an account in one of our demo servers (http://lamscommunity.org/testdrive) and you'll get an email with all login details.

At any rate, you can have a look at the Mac OS X installation instructions here: http://lamsfoundation.org/downloads/macosx. That's the step-by-step instructions (and a bit more advanced bit towards the end -optional, of course) that you wanted. If you think you can do it, let me know and I'll send you the LAMS package so you can install it.

Thanks,

Ernie
