I recently upgraded my Mac OS to Leopard (10.5). Had to re-install XAMPP, but can't get it to work on the new OS - everything appears to start properly and according to the XAMPP "status" page, all is working...
However, when I attempt to load the phpmyadmin tool at http://localhost/phpmyadmin, I get an error telling me to check my server/php logs. Message is "Cannot start session without errors, please check errors given in your PHP and/or webserver log file and configure your PHP installation properly"
I've tried to figure out whether there is a configuration problem in the php.ini file - it seems to point to the right mysql.sock location 'var/mysql/mysql.sock'. Beyond that, I'm baffled.
