Mamp 3 - apache won't start on port 8888

Launching Mavericks and I just upgraded to Mamp 3. I can't get apache to start using the default port 8888. Works fine on port 80 and everything works smoothly with Mamp 2.

Restarting Apache with SUDO doesn't work. I used "sudo apachectl stop" but it had no effect.

The error logs show nothing. when I switch to MySQL port 80 and 3306 everything starts, but I don't want it to use port 80. Thanks.

I found this solution which worked for me, hopefully this helps you:

Just go to / Applications / MAMP / bin / apache 2 / bin using Finder and rename envvars to _envvars (yes, just add an underscore). Boom! Done and done.

Lots of people have success with this answer http://aralbalkan.com/1931/ However it didn't work for me, I have exactly the same problem, I updated and now I can't run it on port 8888, which means none from my local sites SilverStripe doesn't work! Have you found another solution?
