 * I didn’t… Tech support did get back to me and their response was to empty the
   log files, restart the servers and try accessing again. Then send them the log
   files. It was around that time that I got turned on to GhostLab. The demo worked
   right out of the box, so I decided that cost of the paid version was a better
   deal than the time and frustration of fixing the MAMP issue.
 * Report back if you make any progress. I wouldn’t mind getting it sorted as well,
   once I have a little breathing room.
 * Good luck!

 * If I leave it as the default “latest posts” setting, I can load the site and 
   access other pages, including the page I would eventually set as the static homepage.
 * After I make the change, it’s noted as “Front Page” in the dashboard.
 * I’ll contact the MAMP folks if I can’t get it sorted.
 * Thanks Steve!

 * Kinda figured that would be the response… Totally understand. I tried searching
   their site before looking here, but no luck. I also have a feeling that would
   be the response from the MAMP folks as well, if I asked them.
 * I guess I’m just trying to wrap my head around what’s happening on the WP end
   that could help me in digging up a solution. Lets take MAMP out of the equation
   for a second;
 * If I’m able to establish a local connection (through whatever means),
    then after
   I’ve made the homepage change via the WP dashboard, that connection is broken,
   what could be some possible things to look for? Am I correct in thinking that
   the change is confined to one entry in the database, that’s then called by wp
   =settings?
