# OSX + MAMP + Python + PHP + MySQL If you're a web developer who uses MAMP in conjunction with anything other than PHP, I'm sure you've had quite a large bit of frustration involving multiple MyQL instances. Not any more! This simple chain of commands will save you days upon days of troubles: $ sudo rm /tmp/mysql.sock$ sudo ln \-s /Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock /tmp/mysql.sock I only wish I had found this sooner. Enjoy.
