MAMP Pro 6.1 - Apache server not starting

I just update the MAMP to the 6.1 version and now it seems to have a problem with the Apache. The problem is I can not launch the project on the browser ( Open and Open In buttons are disabled).

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you

In my case, the Apache server didn't start, because I had, for one of the Hosts, some Additional parameters for <VirtualHost> directive entries in Apache tab.

Namely, I had ErrorLog and CustomLog entries going to my Downloads folder which is now protected by macOS. There's a way to enable it, but I just removed it and the server started.

BTW my problems only started after I was troubleshooting photolibraryd memory hog, and I run every possible maintenance script and disabled SIP with csrutil. My assumption is that when deleting caches etc, I also removed the "ok" I once gave MAMP Pro to use my Downloads folder.

i had the same problem, my solution was to choose the new option under "File" > "Reset Apache Modules", after that my Apache was running again ;)

I hope my first stackoverflow answer will help you.

Same problem! just updated to 6.1 and apache not starting. No Logs, just notification from MAMP - "mamp has stopped the apache server".

Opening pages directly not working - ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

UPDATE:

i am not sure what exactly happend, but when i went to settings->hosts and clicked some of them for details - "save"button appeared available, so i saved it without any changes (made by me) and now apache server starting and i am able to access webstart page etc.
