I’m also getting the same errors as Z (above). Any resolution to this?

[...] it for a while supposing it would be too much a pain. But I found a tutorial by webopius (“Getting MAMP working with SSL on OS X“) that made it relatively simple. That was easy enough, but I was getting 404s on everything, [...]

for …/conf/apache/ssl.conf you have this:
(change to #)
should be this:
(change to #)

you also have to create a new htdocs_ssl

Thanks for this.

@Z:
I had the same issue.
I had to change the SSL ports from 443 (e.g. to 9999) since they where already in use (don’t know by what process. netstat did not give me any ports) but now it works.

Instead of symlinks i changed the DocumentRoot in the ssl.conf from “/Applications/MAMP/htdocs_ssl” to the right one. Also the virtual host settings can be done there.

I had the same problem as Z; “could not bind to address”.

Listen example.com:443 (instead of Listen 443) solved this.

Hi
I tried following the instructions here for the free version of MAMP but it gives the error

test$ ./startApache.sh
httpd (no pid file) not running
(13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:443
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs

Could someone share a working sample for this ?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

@Al

I have also the 404 error. Where do I change the symlink?

I found that after following this SSL pages had a 404 error. It turned out the document root under SSL was wrong.

A quick fix was to make a symlink to where Apache thought it should be.

ln -s /Users/{username}/Sites/ /Applications/MAMP/htdocs_ssl

Thanks for the article. I was able to make it work on my machine.

Can you shed some light on how to make it work for multiple domains on the same machine?

Followed all the steps but no go.
Maybe they did something different in the 1.8.4 version.
