I recently had to reinstall Lion from scratch on my MacBook. I saved my XAMPP folder and moved it into the applications folder in my new install. I can start up Apache, but not MySQL. I get this error: "The operation couldn’t be completed. (XAMPPErrorDomain error 1.)".
I tried setting permissions on the var/mysql to 775 and 777, neither worked.
I tried running "sudo /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/mysql.server start" in terminal and I get this: "
Starting MySQL
. ERROR! Manager of pid-file quit without updating file.
" When I checked the error file it generated, I see this:

Any ideas? The only thing that changed from my old OS install to my new one is the name of the computer changed from Scott's Macbook to Scott's MacBook. It worked fine on 10.7 before I had to erase the drive and reinstall everything.
Permissions problem, simply do
chmod -R 777 /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/var
And you're good to go.
