I uninstalled MAMP completely, downloaded fresh copy of MAMP 2 from the MAMP website, did a clean install. However, when I try to start mysql, I get the following error log

111120 21:37:49 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from 

/Applications/MAMP/db/mysql
111120 21:37:50 [Warning] You have forced lower_case_table_names to 0 through a command-line option, even though your file system '/Applications/MAMP/db/mysql/' is case insensitive.  This means that you can corrupt a MyISAM table by accessing it with different cases. You should consider changing lower_case_table_names to 1 or 2

111120 21:37:51 mysqld_safe mysqld from pid file /Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.pid ended

I've no clue why this is happening. I googled around and made sure that no instance of MySQL is running. Nothing seems to help.
