On a lighter note

  • In all large corporations, there is a pervasive fear that someone, somewhere is having fun with a computer on company time. Networks help alleviate that fear.

MAMP Causing Strange Problems in Adium

< DrupalCon 2008
The Playground Is A Wreck >

I thought if I started acting like a real developer, maybe it would improve my code. So, I decided to install and start using MAMP on my Mac to develop locally. Mind you, this programming stuff doesn't come naturally to me. I had to ask a few questions now and then of some of my developer friends, but eventually I sort of got it working. Now I've got another problem with MAMP. Somehow it's causing very strange problems in Adium, my IM client.

Here's a screenshot of Adium when I first fire it up:

And here's another after just a few moments:

Adium after a minute or 2

I can't figure out what's wrong. Anyone have any ideas?

You may want to try using xampp instead (or even the built in apache/php setup). I find MAMP to be a little flaky.
