In 10.5 when something is downloaded to your Download folder a quarantine attribute is put on the file until it’s opened. Problem is it doesn’t work all the time. When you move your site to your server it will cause you that error. You can use xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine ./* to remove the attributes, re-upload your site to your server, and things should work.
I just wanted to thank lantrix for his post and confirm his solution did work in my case. I’m running MAMP 1.9 in OS X 10.6 and using VirtualHostX. Editing the httpd-vhosts.conf file resolved the problem in my case.
Great, thanks!
Really played around with WP for the first time last night and I’m really impressed with it’s ease of use. Obviously having a community where you can get the answers you need in a matter of minutes is huge, and I look forward to contributing to it when I’m up and running.
