How to enable PECL uploadprogress extention in MAMP

We found this great howto on smbjorklund.no

"This howto will show you how to get those pesky PECL modules to compile in MAMP like uploadprogress or Xdebug. First a little Drupal background information. FileField and ImageField 3.0 for Drupal 6 released as one of many new features enables us to use the PHP extension uploadprogress that especially come in handy giving the user feedback of progress when uploading large files. Many OS X users are using MAMP to sandbox their development environment but compiling a PECL/PEAR module is not quite that easy in MAMP."

New Online Documentation for MAMP & MAMP PRO

We have just finished the transition of the MAMP PRO PDF-based documentation into an online version. Some entries have been updated others have been added. We also started to add a documentation for the free MAMP, but it is very basic yet.

The new online documentation is available as a wiki. So everyone has the possibility to join and improve it. We hope to solve problems and answer your questions much faster this way.

The new online documentation can be found at: http://documentation.mamp.info

MAMP and IPv6

We are getting lots of questions regarding MAMP / MAMP PRO and IPv6.
Does it work? Yes it does!

Mac OS X supports IPv6 since 10.2, based on KAME. Since 10.3 it is possible to configure IPv6 using the GUI.

Some examples:

MAMP start page with Internet Protocol Version 4
(Apache Port 8888)
http://127.0.0.1:8888/MAMP/index.php?language=English

MAMP start page with Internet Protocol Version 6
(Apache Port 8888 / complete spelling)
http://[0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1]:8888/MAMP/?language=English

MAMP start page with Internet Protocol Version 6
(Apache Port 8888 / short spelling)
http://[::1]:8888/MAMP/?language=English

MAMP start page with Internet Protocol Version 4
(Apache Port 80)
http://127.0.0.1/MAMP/index.php?language=English

MAMP start page with Internet Protocol Version 6
(Apache Port 80 / complete spelling)
http://[0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1]/MAMP/?language=English

MAMP start page with Internet Protocol Version 6
(Apache Port 80 / short spelling)
http://[::1]/MAMP/?language=English

It is important to write the IP Number within squared brackets in order to separate it from the port number.
