Installing Coldfusion 9 on Mac OS X – Snow Leopard

So I took the plunge and upgraded my Mac Pro to Snow Leopard and low and behold my web development environment – I was using a combination of PHP, MySQL, phpMyAdmin & Coldfusion 8 -stopped working. I tried numerous attempts to get CF9 working with a new MAMP installation, but had no luck. I was finally able to get things working by just using Snow Leopard’s stand alone versions of PHP/Apache but had to tweak the MySQL version. I will try to post a write up with links, screenshots and possibly even videos to help others. I will also link to various other developers’ posts who helped me through the process.
