Mamp Pro 4: Apache won't start

I used Mamp Pro 4 for a while with no problem on my Mac (Os X 10.11), then, suddenly, Apache won't start. I got an error: "Check the log" but log is empty.

I have made several test:

  • reinstalled Mamp Pro 4 (4.0.6);
  • rebuild permissions using utility disk and Onyx
  • update Mac os X El Captain to Sierra;
  • started Apache/MySql as "www" or as "user"

Note:

  • 1) starting system Apache it works
  • 2) using MAMP (not pro) Apache works fine.

Any other suggestions ? Thanks

Why Apache server is not starting in MAMP?

By default, MAMP runs Apache on port 8888. If this port is in use by another application, Apache won't be able to start. To fix this problem, you can either quit the application preventing Apache from connecting to port 8888, or change the listening port in your MAMP configuration file.

How do I start my own MAMP server?

Starting MAMP If you don't see the Welcome page, go to http://localhost:8888/MAMP/ in your browser. From the control panel, you can stop your local servers by clicking Stop Servers, or start them by clicking Start Servers. You can also open the Welcome page, and access Preferences.

Which is better MAMP or Xampp?

MAMP does not offer standalone installers for WordPress and is less customizable than XAMPP. Its dashboard also has fewer options compared to the latter. However, MAMP is easier to manage than XAMPP, whereas XAMPP offers higher levels of customization.

Fixed!! The issue was in SSL. For some reasons it stopped to works. No logs and no warning occurred: just an empty log. I deleted the SSL and created a new certificate. Now Apache works fine as well.
