Wondering if any other MAMP users have had problems upgrading from MAMP 1.4.1 to 1.7.1?

Getting the wonderful WSOD, and cannot figure out why. With 1.7, I'm able to look at the php error file in MAMP and see a lot of undeclared function stuff. Noticed a post on here about php.ini and error reporting, but the advised tweak did not work for me (sorry for not being more specific, I need to backtrace and find that particular post, error messages, etc, in a bit).

I've since reverted back to 1.4, and I'm running fine again.

Anyone with any ideas? Would be greatly appreciated.

I have the same problem here. No idea how to fix it.
Is there a change log for MAMP 1.7??

Funny you should mention that. I posted a note on the Mamp.info forum asking about a change log (could not find in the 1.7 files). Will re-post if they respond.

The php error log showed that there was to little memory.
I changed the memory limit in the php.ini's from 8 to 32 Mb.
Solved the problem for me!!

I made the same version jump because I needed at least PHP 5.2 in order to use the latest version of CiviCRM with my site. I'm not convinced the problem is specific to making the leap from 1.4.1 to 1.7.1 but perhaps for all MAMP updates? This was my first, so it's the only time I've had the problem.

My problem was solved after making a simple edit in MAMP/conf/php5/php.ini. On line 232 change the memory limit from 8 to 32 mb. Don't forget to restart the apache server for this to take effect. A little tip, make sure the folder from which you are running mamp is called "MAMP" not MAMP_OLD or MAMP_2.. No matter what version you are running, it is going to pull in conf files (php.ini) from Applications/MAMP/etc...

So glad to MAMP back!
