Moodle4Mac MySql won't start

Hi there,

I've been running Moodle on a Xampp server with no problems for years on both Mac and Windows but in the last few weeks MySql has refused to start. Same on Mamp and Wamp.

I just downloaded Moodle4Mac but the same thing happens: XamppErrorDomain error 1

I've turned off Skype, set the permissions to Read & Write and to the enclosed folders for myself, system, admin and everyone.

I've searched on the internet and gather it's a frequent problem but I don't really understand the suggestions: there are several different propositions of code to put in the terminal. I'm afraid of making the problem worse but putting in the wrong code.

I'm on Mac OS X 10.8.4 and Windows 7.

Cheers,

Glenys

Hi Glenys,

Do you get any error messages? Have you changed anything in your installations? Try and check the MySQL error log (you should find it in the "data" folder).
