Folks:
Drupal 6.19

I want to move my existing web site from my web server (it works fine)  
to my local MAMP installation. I'm doing this because I want to learn  
how to use ubercart without messing up my working web site. I have  
several working MAMP installations, but can't get the downloaded one  
to work.

I've exported the web version and imported the database into the MAMP  
version. No problem.
I've copied all of the files from the web site to the MAMP site. No  
problem.
I've modified the setups.php folder to account for the MAMP port for  
the db and base URL port (8889 and 8888),
I've run update.php with free access set to true.

The front page shows up fine, BUT:
Here's the problem:
When I click on any of the menu buttons, I get a
"The requested URL /node/51 was not found on this server."
error.
BUT: if I use http://baseURL/?q=node/4 address (for example), I get  
the page. But I have clean urls set to true and
addresses like: http://baseURL/node/4 give me the "page not found"  
error.
I also get this error with URL's like: http://baseURL/admin/settings/clean-urls

I DO have cleanURL's turned on, but obviously there is something I  
need to change that I don't know about.

What might be the problem?

Thanks, for any help,
Bill
