Topic: MAMPStack / ctlscript.sh in Terminal?

Hi All,

True to my name sake, I am a TOTAL newbie; I do want to learn, and firmly believe in RTFM. But, after reading the mampstack.pdf I am not clear as to where to “RUN” the ctlscript.sh. I opened the “use_mampstack” Terminal in the “mampstack-1.0-beta-4” directory and get the following:

Last login: Sat Oct 11 21:51:02 on ttys000
/Applications/mampstack-1.0-beta-4/use_mampstack ; exit;
BigMac:~ home$ /Applications/mampstack-1.0-beta-4/use_mampstack ; exit;
bash-3.2$

Then I type or paste:

$ /Applications/mampstack-1.0-beta-4/ctlscript.sh start apache (I also only type “ctlscript.sh”) and get the following:

bash-3.2$ ctlscript.sh start apache
bash: ctlscript.sh: command not found

If I add “Sudo” or “root” I get the same thing (except it warns me about not using “Sudo” properly) . Luckily, I am using the BitNami Control Panel to start and stop these services; but, I am more concerned that either this is a “USER ERROR” or I am missing something here.

Also, I could not find the MAMPctl.sh utility: mentioned in the “Readme.txt” file…

Any thoughts or input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
