Issue

Is it possible to have NodeJS and MAMP running together on the same machine? If so how would i achieve this?

Note: I can run them separately just not together. I assume its down to my NodeJS using the "localhost" as well as MAMP.

Solution

You can setup Proxy and a host.

for example create node01.example.com in Hosts. Then Go to Advanced and enter the following in "Customized virtual host general settings"

ServerAlias node01.example.com

 <Location />

  ProxyPass http://127.0.0.1:3000/

ProxyPassReverse http://127.0.0.1:3000/

</Location>

when you visit node01.example.com you'd pass through MAMP and go to your node ;)
