Using MAMP for local development one quick php memory setting needed
right away I got the error
"Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted"
This means you used more then 32 megs which seems alot but in this case it might have been needed to get going since there was not much installed (okay ubercart, root candy theme, tons of test data, caches etc)
So I needed to figure out where does it set these settings. I placed a test.php file in the root of the mamp folder for that site. All that was in the file was
#000000">#0000BB"><?php
phpinfo#007700">();
#0000BB">?> This really is not much memory for a drupal site.
MAMP has template files you can edit by just going to File -> Edit Template - PHP 5.2
The line I wanted is below it was 32M
php_value memory_limit 256M
This helped with that issue.

Not counting my Commodore 64 years, I began my IT career when Windows 95 hit the scene and Google was just a glimmer on the Californian horizon. I discovered Drupal four years ago when it was giving Joomla a run for its money.
At the time, I was working as the IT manager at the National Priorities Project (NPP). We were using Joolma and getting about 200,000 visitors a month and the site was not scaling well. I saw the limits of Joomla and the promise of Drupal 4 with its taxonomy system, clean urls, and security features. I converted NPP to Drupal and migrated their main database, http://nationalpriorities.org/nppdatabase_tool, from webobjects to a Drupal-friendly structure in MySQL. Still not satisfied, I moved NPP’s constituent data (including their 25,000 member email list) out of the expensive Raiser's Edge and into the free and open source CiviCRM 1.8, saving the company money that it was spending on their desktop software.
Thus began my commitment to supporting non-profits by creating affordable, custom-built content management systems in Drupal and CiviCRM. I founded River Valley Tech Collective as a collaborative team of other like-minded techies to provide Drupal-driven sites to a wider range of non-profits, educational institutions and local community organizations.
