MAMP Start Page Only Shows Index - wordpress

I'm trying to install Wordpress on MAMP using this tutorial. When I start the MAMP server and go to the MAMP startup page, I see this index instead of a GUI. As a result, I can't access the PHPMyAdmin GUI (despite the PHPMyAdmin link) to create a database for Wordpress. Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong? I'm running OSX 10.9.5.

Try that url to access phpmyadmin
http://localhost:8888/phpmyadmin/

This is the directory listing that Apache provides in some cases. When a folder is requested, Apache looks in a folder for a file name matching the DirectoryIndex directive, which are often files such as index.php, index.html, home.htm, and so on. Since none of those exist here, the directory listing is shown.
Basically, something isn't right here with your MAMP install; either this URL is not designed to be accessed by you ever or your installation is incomplete. First, try loading http://localhost:8888 directly and see if that works any better for you. Failing that, I suggest you make a backup of any MAMP related files (databases, web pages, or configuration changes) and reinstall. One possible cause of this is if the MAMP package is not installed to /Applications/
In short, when you're using an all-in-one package like MAMP this shouldn't happen. You say that when you uninstalled and reinstalled that fixed the problem which is what I would have suggested anyway. It seems something went wrong with the installation and that should (and did) fix it.

I add the solution that helped me in the similar situation just in case someone later will face the same problem when after the Wordpress has been installed, a browser just show "Index of/" instead of the required site.
Check the following points:
There is 'index.php' file in the root folder of your project. (web server tries to open exactly this file).
If the file actually is located there, check the configuration of your web server. For example in my case my web server is Apache 2.4. After I added the directive "DirectoryIndex index.php" in the Apache configurations file (thereby saying to the server which file it should open if it received the address of the root folder) my problem was solved.

Django project does not work after being transferred from Windows to Mac

I'm using Django 3.1.7 on a MacBook Pro after transferring the Django project off of a Windows 10 machine. However, upon re-setting up the database and superuser and running the command pipenv sync to install all necessary modules, the server does run; but it doesn't serve any of my URLs or the CSS styles for the Admin page. I can reach the admin page at '/admin' but no other page that I've set up will display. All it gives me is my custom 404 page whenever I try to serve a page. Is there any way to fix this? Is something wrong? Where are the Admin CSS files?
python manage.py runserver --insecure
Use the --insecure option to force serving of static files with the staticfiles app even if the DEBUG setting is False.

I think we'd need more information... maybe the files itself.
There could be tons of things that could go wrong. Is your settings.py still pointing to the correct file paths? In views.py, did you make sure you are setting the html files in the same path? Are the html files in the right folder? Are all the Django and module versions the same? There's too much to name.
I have the same problem.
By what you are describing it happens because your file path uses either / or
One machine uses forward slash and the other backwards slash
I dont know to so use a method that work on both

Symfony2 assests in bundles directory 404 error

After doing some research, I still cannot understand why my assets in the bundles folder return 404 errors when I try to reach them.
I can see the files on the server, but when I try to reach them, symfony returns a 404 error.
For example, I have this file on the server : web/bundles/aluser/images/li-plus.png, but trying to access it with https://my-site.com/bundles/aluser/images/li-plus.png returns a 404 error. But on the other hand I can access files in https://my-site.com/images/li-plus.png for example.
I did the assets install and dump commands, cleared the cache but no results.
Thank you.
Unless you are on a local install it probably has to do with your server not pointing to the web folder. I had that problem on a shared hosting what i did was to make a symlink from server home (www, public_html or whatever) to web and it worked like a charm.
Thank you all for your answers,
they pointed me in the right direction (a problem with the server) :
I did a asset install and dump commands with the root user of the server, all files created were then associated to this root user, and apache wouldn't serve them anymore.
After a chown, everything was working again.
Thanks again :)

Silverstripe install admin js errors

For some reason my admin screen just hangs with some javascript errors. I have it installed on xampp on windows 7 ultimate 64bit. What could be causing this? Ill post a screenshot of the errors any help would be nice! p.s. This is my first time installing silverstripe ever so be nice. :)
This sort of things usually occurs when combined asset files cannot be created. Make sure the web server user has write access to the assets/ and assets/_combinedfiles folders, then go to your-site.com/admin/pages?flush=1.
Alternatively, since this is a local install, run in dev mode. There are instructions in the documentation on how to set this.
As indicated by #simon_w, this issue occurs due to the folder permissions:
In your local environment, in addition to the way via yml config, you can just put the following in _config.php inside mysite folder.
Director::set_environment_type("dev");
In dev mode, the installation doesnt need to write to assets/_combinedfiles. However, you had better have write permission for assets folder anyway.
So, just increase permissions for assets and directories under it. Uploaded files are also stored there, if not sufficient permission, you can't upload files from the admin panel. Other functionalists may also be affected.

Drupal Export of Site Not Working For Subdirectory Levels Beyond Root Directory

I have to move an existing Drupal site from one server to another. I've done so by doing a mysql database export/import and copying over the files to the new server. On the new system, the root page comes up fine but if I try to go to any deeper directory levels I get a 404 Not Found Error.
so drupal.newserver.com -> works fine
but drupal.newserver.com/user -> gives me a 404 and happens,same for all subdirectories
Is there something that I'm missing that is part of a drupal export? Could it be related to the structure of the /sites directory which is under the webserver's docroot?- which has a folder named after the old server (ie drupal.oldserver.com but not drupal.newserver.com? Also, I noticed that there are _htaccess files and .hta files but not .htaccess files in the site files that I've copied over.
Sorry if I'm asking a bleedingly obvious question - I'm very new to Drupal. Thank you!
Check whether the clean url is enabled in your web server. To check try this:
drupal.newserver.com/?q=user.
Just to let anyone who might come across via a google search - I was able to get this to work . It turns out that while mod_rewrite was enabled, what I had to do was to enable the AllowOverride directive for the web directory in httpd.conf to be set to ‘All’. If it’s not set to this, the server won’t respect the .htaccess rules you put into the drupal directory. It’s been a while since I’ve worked with apache config files so it took a while to finally piece it together. The main breakthrough came when I realized that if I turned off clean-urls then the links worked but looked ugly and then was able to research clean_url.

Error: Forbidden Access Message (Drupal-6.x)

I'm new to Drupal and I'm trying to create multiple sites inside Drupal. I'm trying to create a symlink via the command line. I tried going to my browser to run the new installation for the new website, but I receive a message that says Forbidden Access.
To create the symlink in the terminal:
ln -s ~/Sites/drupal-6.20/sites/sitename2.com
My Drupal-6.20 folder is the root directory of my localhost.
In the browser to start the installation I tried:
http://localhost:80/sitename2.com
Short answer: the web root should be pointing to the index.php in the Drupal root for all of the sites you're hosting on that codebase.
In your case, you are getting an error because there's nothing in the /sites/yoursite.com directory that your webserver can run on it's own.
Longer answer: Configuring Drupal for multiple domains takes a little bit more reading and learning that can be summarized in an SO response.
The guide at http://drupal.org/getting-started/6/install/multi-site is a great place to start, and includes links to videos and additional tutorials in case you need additional help.
I don't know drupal that much, but i know other cms. And i think you should check for "permisions tab".
I worked with joomla, which i think is quite simmilar. And the first time you just have to go to http://localhost/. Installation started. And when it finnished, i had to delete installation folder out of localhost root.
But this is for joomla.
