Re: Installing an existing site locally on MAMP
why are you then still trying to access it via localhost? the url would then be `http://bundle.local/` - which then would correctly call the webroot index.php and dispatch accordingly Am Donnerstag, 8.

When I added http://bundle.local it kept going to my root folder /applications/mamp/htdocs, I have other sites set there. Do you think pick somewhere else on my machine? Thanks for your help!
