Topic: MAMPStack / ctlscript.sh in Terminal?

Hi there—

There are a few threads on this, but I also need help. I too am getting mysql startup errors—running as root or with sudo….I also tried just kicking off mysql itself with a similar error….. I get the page ‘wiki! has a problem’.... Is there a solution>
