    For those developing with MAMP, as of version 1.9.4 PHP comes with zip, so the annoying configuration error message in the MODx Manager is no longer there. I'm using MAMP 2.0.2 on my brand-new MacBook Pro, and it has PHP 5.3.5

    Note that before installing on this version, because of the version of MySQL, you need to edit the install/setup.sql file and replace all instances of
    TYPE=MyISAM or Type=MyISAM with ENGINE=MyISAM


    Another note; the PHP 5.3.5 php.ini doesn't have an entry for magic_quotes_gpc, so you need to add this to the file (in the MAMP folder, it's in bin/php/php5.3.6/conf)
    ; Magic quotes for incoming GET/POST/Cookie data.
    magic_quotes_gpc = Off
