    Hi,

    I'm trying to install WordPress on my local computer, I'm using MAMP on a Mac OS/X.

    When I'm on the page: /wp-admin/install.php after submit, I keep getting this error in my apache_error_log:
    postdrop: warning: mail_queue_enter: create file maildrop/455688.1343: Permission denied

    Guess it's trying to send me some kind of (conf) e-mail, but seams like my apache or MAMP don't like sending it :(

    Anyone have a hint, how it could get this to work? (By the way, I can see that it perfectly have created all the new tables in the background!)

    Kind regards,
    Rasmus

    Okay, I found a solution for my self!

    Make sure that MAMP is own by "system" and NOT you (as of you, as "MyUser"), when it starts up, then it has access to postdrop :)
