Unable to install XAMPP on MacOS

"xampp-osx-8.1.6-0-vm can't be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software. This software needs to be updated. Contact the developer for more information."

Please advise. Also tried installing previous version xampp-osx-8.0.19-0-vm and receive same message.

Open setting ->Go to Security & Privacy

at the bottom you will find an option open anyway.

:D No worries, hopefully I can be of some assistance.

I you are like me I have the a Mac with the M1 chip.

Some may say that Xampp is not compatible with the M1, but this is :!:true!

Steps to downloading (working versions with the M1) such as versions 7.4.27 & version 8.1.2

- From the Xampp website https://www.apachefriends.org/
-in the nav bar click on download next to Apache Friends
-scroll down to the Xampp for OS X section
- click on the More Downloads » link
- then choose XAMPP Mac OS X
- next choose 8.1.2 or 7.4.27
- and download the xampp-osx-8.1.2-0-installer.dmg
- after downloading Xampp, click the start all servers button
- NOTE: IF MYSQL DATABASE IS STOPPED AND IS NOT RUNNING THEN USE THE FOLLOWING COMMAND IN THE TERMINAL

sudo killall mysqld
sudo /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/mysql.server start

- then in your browser type localhost
- if you see the "Welcome to Xampp for OS X 8.1.2" screen appear, then the installation was successful
- open Xampp in your finder foler
- locate then click on htdocs
- create your project folder in htdocs. For example, testing
- open your project folder that you just created in htdocs in PhpStorm or VSC or the alike, and get to work....
- when you are ready to deploy your project locally, concat localhost + the name of your project folder. For example, type localhost/testing
- good job :roll:
