The official documentation can be seen here.

MAMP PRO: The 'Path' to your remote document root is incorrect. but is not true – all files are there – CPanel

The problem is incorrect path to remote host, but is not true. I have acces to my server via ftp without problems. All WP files are there and the site is working fine (frontend/backent). I have also access to phpMyAdmin to MySQL datepase binded to this site.
I have notce that paht to the web files is differ depend on FTP or SFTP is. In FTP app is such stright:

/[all wp files]

in editor app (such TextWrangler), after the samy access id/pass, I have got such path:

/home/[accountname]/public_html/[all wp files]

After click on detect button, app changing the path filed on:
– blanc – under FTP connection
or
– public_html – under SFTP
so it mean conection between MAMP and my server is working. Fine. But after this when I trying to Check URLs & credentials or when I trying Import Host… I received:
Error code: -3010 (The ‘Path’ to your remote document root is incorrect. The ‘Path’ field on the remote tab is the document root of your remote site that will be accessed via your Public Site URL (e.g.: ‘public_html’).) – Start auto detect not solved the problem.
or
Error code: -3113 (The ‘Path’ to your remote document root is incorrect. The ‘Path’ field on the remote tab is the document root of your remote site that will be accessed via your Public Site URL (e.g.: ‘public_html’).)

But it is not true! All files are there!

Please help. Should I use some special code under Apache tab (Additional parameters for VirtualHost directive or Directory directive?
Should I know something more from my serverprovider (home.pl) and solved this problem with them (there is no, in my subscription plan, access via cPanel or so, to set up something)?
Should I change something in https.conf file?

I’m not so using server coding so please forgive me but I have no idea where is the problem (but I’m trying to learn) :o)

My environment is:
MacOS X: 10.13.6
MAMP Pro: 5.2.2 (17923)

Thanx for any help or redirection to the answers someware else (I used searching ;o) but without success or I used wrong ask).

    Just ran into this and found a solution that worked for me. I just had to switch the Public URL from https to http and it worked.

    I had this error too.
    Here’s what I did to fix it:
    Logged into my remote CPanel account
    Created an FTP account for [email protected]
    Defined the user directory in the FTP user settings similar to this /home/[site]/public_html
    Ensured that this user had read/write permissions on the remote server (otherwise importing a site in MAMP Pro might fail)
    Then, in MAMP Pro (v 6.0.1) created a new host following these steps:
    https://documentation.mamp.info/en/MAMP-PRO-Mac/Create-a-new-host/Import/
    I found that once the correct FTP permissions were set at the server, MAMP was OK and functioned as planned.
    Good luck, hope this works for you too.
