How can I run Visual Studio for mac as administrator? [duplicate]

I have the same issues. Updated MAMP to the latest build (5.5). Also switched the ports back to MAMP default ports (8888). That worked for me. Also checked if some diffrent server was running on port 80 lsof -nP -i4TCP:80 | grep LISTEN but nothing seem to be using port 80. Could it be Catalina has a new security setting for this?


Catalina has more restrictions on system folders which we can apply an exception:

  1. Open System Preferences -> Security and Privacy -> Privacy tab -> Full Disk Access -> Press 'Unlock to make changes' padlock

  2. Open Finder Window -> "Go" menu -> "Go to folder" -> type "/usr/sbin/"

  3. Drag the file "httpd" to the list inside the Full Disk Access settings.

  4. Restart Mamp servers

Same issue here.

Solution: Move your folders into another path (example: Home), don't use Documents or Download or other system folders.

enjoy


Also had Apache not starting after upgrade to Catalina. I had my websites originally located in subfolders of the /Users/***/Sites/ folder, and according to this thread, made a new folder /Users/***/Repos and moved all websites there and updated MAMP Pro doc roots for all hosts. That didn't allow Apache to start.

After that, I found this info:

Check your Template folder, located in /Users/[username]/Library/Application Support/appsolute/MAMP PRO/template/httpd.conf.temp. Rename this file to httpd.conf.temp.bak and try to restart your Apache server.

on this page https://appsolute.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/215197286-My-Apache-Server-will-not-start-

and after doing that, Apache in Mamp Pro was able to start on Catalina.
