Answers: osx - mac os x terminal php command not found

user1427195

I am using Mac OS X 10.6.8. In Terminal, when I enter php -v, I get below message:

Last login: Sun Dec 16 20:22:05 on ttys000
You have mail.
-bash: e: command not found
~ $cd /
/ $php -v
-bash: php: command not found
/ $

My $PATH is:

/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr‌/local/git/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/local/php5-20121126-100332/bin/php

When I type which php, I simply get an empty output.

Area 51

hm, that sucks. Showed up fine on my 10.7 machine using php -v or "which php".

You can always try "sudo find /usr/ -name php 2>/dev/null" to do a more complete search.

If it somehow got borked, you could use http://www.macports.org to install php

osx - Make mcrypt available to PHP 5.3 on Mac OS X 10.6

$ which mcrypt

So I have mcrypt. How do I get PHP to use it? Other than adding

extension=mcrypt.so

to php.ini, I also see this in php.ini

[mcrypt]
; For more information about mcrypt settings see http://php.net/mcrypt-module-open

; Directory where to load mcrypt algorithms
; Default: Compiled in into libmcrypt (usually /usr/local/lib/libmcrypt)
;mcrypt.algorithms_dir=

; Directory where to load mcrypt modes
; Default: Compiled in into libmcrypt (usually /usr/local/lib/libmcrypt)
;mcrypt.modes_dir=

which is obviously unused.

How can I get mcrypt working for PHP?

This install is on Mac OS X 10.6, using MacPorts. I would prefer not to have to recompile php if possible.
