MAMP pro comes with loaded features, one of the main attraction is Hosts Management. Many of them who use LARAVEL or Symfony like frameworks need to start the server and restart for any small modifications in main configuration files.
Bitnami WAMP Stack Installers Bitnami native installers automate the setup of a Bitnami application stack on Windows, Mac OS and Linux. Each installer includes all of the software necessary to run out of the box (the stack). Bitnami MAMP Stack Installers Bitnami native installers automate the setup of a Bitnami application stack on Windows, Mac OS and Linux. Each installer includes all of the software necessary to run out of the box (the stack). The process is simple; just download, click next-next-next and you are done! The only things you'll need to make this happen are a running instance of Ubuntu Server 19.10 (although the steps work for earlier iterations of the platform) and a user account with sudo privileges.
This is kinda frustrating for developers as this itself becomes big headache. If your not using MAMP Pro and looking for to setup the MAMP then you are at the right place.
Prerequisites
I hope that you might be having Laravel / Symfony kind of frameworks in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs folder. If still not then go ahead and install one now.
I am using PHP Laravel framework as an example. Please feel free to use any other framework as per your needs.
Step 1 - Check MAMP Ports & Configuration
Start MAMP server on top left corner go to
MAMP -> Preferences -> Ports
You will something like the following configuration
As you see in the above image I am having
Apache Port : 8888
Nginx Port : 8888
MYSQL Port : 8889
You can reset it to default ports by clicking on
Set Web & MYSQL ports to 80 & 3306
Then your ports will be as follows
Apache Port : 80
Nginx Port : 80
MYSQL Port : 3306
I am leaving for the default one. As in my docker file our company uses port 80 & 3306 as default ports for PHP & MYSQL respectively.
Step 2 - Laravel .env File Setup
Open your Laravel.env file make sure to make the following changes
I am taking stackcoder as laravel project and stackcoder.test for local development domain as an EXAMPLE :)APP_URL - Observe 8888 port, And as you see http://stackcoder.test is the domain which will be pointing to your Laravel app in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/stackcoder
DB_PORT - Observe 8889 port
Step 3 - httpd-vhosts.conf File To Add Your Virtual Hosts For APACHE
Run the following command.
This will open the httpd-vhosts.conf file where you need to add the following configuration.
The following code block is mandatory. Don't make any changes to it.
Below the above code add your project settings
DocumentRoot '/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/stackcoder/public/' this point to your Laravel project
ServerName stackcoder.test - You can add any domain name for testing
Your overall httpd-vhosts.conf will look something like the following
You can add as many projects you need.
Step 4 - Add stackcoder.test Virtual Host Name In /etc/hosts
Now you have added virtual hosts settings its time to setup stackcoder.test in the /etc/hosts file
Step 5 - Reload MAMP
Just go to MAMP and restart (stop & start servers) your MAMP sever
MAMP Main Configuration Page
Step 6 - Test in browser
Now go to your browser and add the following in the url
Make sure to put 8888 port you have not set port 80 as default port
Conclusion
WHATS NEXT?
Once the development of the web application is complete you will be pushing to server. I have curated and written few articles on the same kindly read those.

Default Linux, Nginx, MariaDB, PHP7.0 & Adminer stack on Ubuntu 16.04
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install nginx
After installation, enable Nginx to auto start when Ubuntu is booted
sudo systemctl enable nginx
Start Nginx with this command
sudo systemctl start nginx
Check out it's status
systemctl status nginx
Now in your browser's address bar, type http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1 and hit enter
You will see 'Welcome to nginx!, that means nginx installed and running successfully.
Now, we need to make www-data (Nginx user) as the owner of web root directory
sudo chown www-data /var/www/html -R
sudo apt-get install mariadb-server mariadb-client
MariaDB server should be automatically started. Use systemctl to check its status.
systemctl status mysql
Enable MariaDB to automatically start when Ubuntu is rebooted
sudo systemctl enable mysql
Run the post installation security script
sudo mysql_secure_installation
When it asks you to enter MariaDB root password, press enter because you have not set the root password yet. Then enter y to set the root password for MariaDB server.
Next just press Enter to answer all the remaining questions. This will remove anonymous user, disable remote root login and remove test database. This step is a basic requirement for MariaDB database security.
sudo apt-get install php7.0-fpm php7.0-mbstring php7.0-xml php7.0-mysql php7.0-common php7.0-gd php7.0-json php7.0-cli php7.0-curl php7.0-intl php7.0-bcmath php7.0-mcrypt
Now start php7.0-fpm
sudo systemctl start php7.0-fpm
Check php7 status
systemctl status php7.0-fpm
Remove the 'default.conf' symlink in 'sites-enabled' directory
sudo rm /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
create a new default server block file under /etc/nginx/conf.d/ directory
sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
Paste the following text into the file, save and close the file
Test nginx configuration and reload it
sudo nginx -t
sudo service nginx restart
php --version
Test PHP-FPM, first create a php_info.php file in the Web root directory
sudo nano /var/www/html/php_info.php
Paste the following PHP code into the file and save it
Now in the browser address bar, enter localhost/php_info.php. You should see your server's PHP information. This means PHP is workinging fine. For your server's security, you should delete php_info.php file now.
Adminer is a free opensource data base management tool like phpmyadmin. It is very ightweight and easy to install and also supports various themes. Download Adminer from here:
Place it in var/www/html folder. To access it, type in your browser localhost/adminer-4.2.5.php
Your Linux OS has a root user. MariaDB also has a root user. So sometimes, when you try to log into MariaDB monitor as root user, MariaDB may authenticate you via the Unix_Socket plugin but this plugin is not installed by default. So you see Plugin 'unix_socket' is not loaded Error.
Fix this error
First stop MariaDB, use this command to stop it.
sudo systemctl stop mysql
Then start MariaDB with --skip-grant-tables option which bypass user authentication
sudo mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables &
Log into MariaDB monitor as root
mysql -u root
Enter the following SQL statement to check which authentication plugin is used for root
MariaDB [(none)]> select Host,User,plugin from mysql.user where User='root';
You will see it's using unix_socket plugin. To change it to mysql_native_password plugin, execute this command:
MariaDB [(none)]> update mysql.user set plugin='mysql_native_password';
Exit MariaDB monitor
flush privileges;quit;
Stop mysqld_safe
sudo kill -9 $(pgrep mysql)
Start MariaDB again
sudo systemctl start mysql
Now you can use normal password to login
mysql -u root -p
That's all, you have done everything. Enjoy !
Download and Install MAMP then go to C:MAMPhtdocs and place the extracted folder of masterpos there. Now go to localhost/MAMP and then go to phpMyAdmin and create a database with any name and create a user with all privileges for the created Database. Now import the database.sql file from your database folder of your pos directory and click Go. Database is created. Now go to config folder and change database.php.tmpl to database.php and set the database name, username and password for the database you created through phpMyAdmin.
Go to your browser and write localhost and select your project from the list. OSPOS will be loaded. Give the the username and password which is 'admin' and 'pointofsale' respectively.
Go to Sales Module and if your UI is blocked then you have to do some extra work. Run your MAMP application which is most probably already running. Click on 'Preferences', now go to php tab and check which php version is loaded in your MAMP by clicking on dropdown list. Select a php version with 5.6.** (e.g. 5.6.13 or 5.6.24).
if none of 5.6.** version is available in the list then follow the instruction below Goto C:MAMPbinphp and rename all the non-required php folder to some other name. (e.g. rename php5.4.1 to x_php5.4.1). only 2 folders from here will show in your php dropdown at MAMP.
Now go to C:MAMPbinphpphp5.6.24 and copy all the icu**53.dll files from here and paste them to C:MAMPbinapachebin.
Now go to C:MAMPconfphp5.6.24 and open php.ini file and find ;extension=php_intl.dll and remove the semicolon in the start and make sure bcmath is not commented out as well. If it doesn't work please read issue 1607 for a detailed list of extensions.
Restart your MAMP and run the ospos again. It should work now. Enjoy. ๐
If you are using WAMP follow the MAMP setup for the icu files.
Currently Php 7 is working. Download and Install Xampps currrent version for 3.1.0 or an earlier version of Xampp for 3.0.2. OSPOS is working great on Windows 10.https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html Launch the Control Panel. Start Apache and Mysql. From Apache select Config. Edit the Php.ini file to uncomment the following extensions as needed. The extensions are about halfway down. bcmath already appears to be enabled in this version of Xampp.
extension=php_gd2.dll, This may already be enabled.
extension=php_intl.dll, Was not enabled.
extension=php_sockets.dll. Was not enabled.
NOTE: If it doesn't work please read issue 1607 for a detailed list of extensions.
Now Apache should be ready to go.
Download and extract either Stable or Unstable from the Readme page.
If you are using Windows right click on the downloaded zip file.
Select properties and Select the Unblock button if it is there. Then extract the file.
Place the extracted file into the htdocs directory.
In Xampp Control Panel go to Mysql - Admin. Create a new database. Name it ospos or whatever you want. Now select the database and go to import. Select browse and go to the opensourcepos directory and locate the database directory. Select database.sql for the import if this is a new install. Select 2.4_3.0.sql for the import if this is an updated install. After the database has completed installing go back to the ospos dir and go to ospos/application/config. Rename database.php.tmpl to database.php. Open database.php and change the following lines as needed.
'username' => ', default name is root for mysql.
'password' => ', default no password for mysql or change if you created a mysql password.
'database' => ', change this to your new database name.
Edit and save.
Restart the Apache server after you have made any changes.
Now you should be able to go to localhost/what ever name you chose to use/public and see the login screen.
In 3.1.0 or higher if you have not enabled all the necessary extensions it will give you a warning on the Login screen.
Default user - admin
Default password - pointofsale.
Play around and get familiar with OSPOS.
Default Linux, Nginx, MariaDB, PHP7.0 & Adminer stack on Raspbian Jessie.
By default Raspbian Jessie comes with PHP5.6, so you have to add a new repo to use php7. You can use php5.6 but php7 performs far better.
Type the following code in your terminal:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
Add this line to the list:
Mamp For Ubuntu
deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ stretch main contrib non-free rpi

Paste the following text into the file, save and close the file
Test nginx configuration and reload it
sudo nginx -t
sudo service nginx restart
php --version
Test PHP-FPM, create a php_info.php file in the Web root directory
sudo nano /var/www/html/php_info.php
Paste the following code to the file:
Now in the browser address bar, enter localhost/php_info.php. You should see your server's PHP information. This means PHP is workinging fine. For your server's security, you should delete php_info.php file now.
Download Adminer from this page:
Place it in var/www/html folder. To access it, type in your browser localhost/adminer-x.x.x.php
NOTE: x.x.x stands for Adminer version, you have downloaded.
Now download, extract and place opensourcepos to var/www/html. Don't forget to rename it as opensourcepos. Create a new Database using Adminer. Rename your Application/config/database.php.tmpl to database.php. Provide database connection credentials by editing the database.php file. Type in your browser http://localhost/opensourcepos/public.
ENJOY!

Mamp For Ubuntu Mac
$db['default'] = array( 'dsn' => ', 'hostname' => 'localhost', 'username' => 'root', 'password' => '12345678', 'database' => 'opensourcepos',
- Copy This Files to apache.
cp -r opensourcepos /var/www/html - Change the permissions
chmod -Rv 755 cache* /var/www/html/opensourcepos. - Restart Apache
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart.
Configuring OSPOS ( Network Install )
Please do not use a Web Browser with a lot of addons as it can create problems with OSPOS. Install Firefox if you are using Chrome with a lot of addons.
- Download the Source form
https://github.com/jekkos/opensourcepos. - Go to your PI's ip address e.g
http://192.168.3.116/phpmyadmin. - Create a database name as above saved in configuration file.
- As it's a local installation, to improve performance set in
application/config/config.php$config['ospos_xss_clean'] = FALSE;- Please note that this will disable the Cross Site Scripting protection, but assuming it's a standalone installation you should not suffer this issue but please consider carefully this point before proceeding - - Select that Database and Click import and select the database file from previously downloaded file.
- After successfully importing the database login to OSPOS.
- Restart apache
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart - Go to your PI's ip address e.g
http://192.168.3.116/opensourcepos. - Enjoy!!!.
Although Apache and MySQL are popular choices, on Raspberry PI alternatives could be considered like Nginx + PHP-FPM + MariaDB on Arch Linux. Here how to.
