Run php --ini at the prompt by typing it and pressing enter

Reports something like: Configuration File (php.ini) Path: /etc Loaded Configuration File: (none) Scan for additional .ini files in: /Library/Server/Web/Config/php Additional .ini files parsed: (none)

...this is because in /etc there is a file called /etc/php.ini.default as an example and to show it is not in use. You need to copy that file to the name php expects so that you can edit it, like this:

Type:

$  sudo cp /etc/php.ini.default /etc/php.ini       (and enter your password)

...then you will see if you run php --ini again that it now sees your new file:

Typing this: php --ini at the prompt should report this:

Configuration File (php.ini) Path: /etc
Loaded Configuration File:         /etc/php.ini
Scan for additional .ini files in: /Library/Server/Web/Config/php
Additional .ini files parsed:      (none)

...now edit /etc/php.ini - you want to make sure the following lines (NOT the same line starting with a semi-colon ';') are exactly as follows: log_errors = On (this will turn the logging engine on)

Then, in this section:

; Log errors to specified file. PHP's default behavior is to leave this value
; empty.
; http://php.net/error-log
; Example:
;error_log = php_errors.log
; Log errors to syslog (Event Log on Windows).
;error_log = syslog

If you want to log to the syslog (or Windows Event Log on Windows) then ;error_log = syslog should become error_log = syslog

However, if as you say, you want to log to a file, you uncomment by removing the leading semi colon to make ;error_log = php_errors.log become error_log = php_errors.log or using a full path to place it where you want.

Good luck

Depending on what system you are running, php.ini could have different locations. But where is php.ini hidden? Linux Windows Mac OS X

Find php.ini

There are few ways to know where is php.ini file.

Find it with a PHP script

The safest way to know it, is through the following script:

 php
phpinfo
();
?>

Once you run the script in your favourite browser, the function phpinfo() will output the what you see in the image.

You can find much more details with this function, but in order to locate php.ini, we need to focus only on the field “Loaded Configuration File”.

In this example (running Mac OSX 10.6), php.ini is located in /private/etc/php.ini

Find it with BASH script

Another pretty safe way to locate your php configuration file (assuming you are running a UNIX system), is with the following BASH command:

 find /-name 'php.ini'2>/dev/null

This command will search for php.ini file in the whole disk, redirecting any error to null. If you suspect your php.ini file is under the directory /etc/, you can substitute “/” for “/etc/”.

The problem with this command, is that you might find multiple php.ini files, and do not really know which one is the active one.

Guess where it is

The location of the file php.ini depends on the installation of PHP. Each distribution goes their way, but there are few common patterns:

OSPath
 Linux /etc/php.ini
/usr/bin/php5/bin/php.ini
/etc/php/php.ini
/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
Mac OSX  /private/etc/php.ini
Windows (with XAMPP installed)  C:/xampp/php/php.ini

I hope you have found where php.ini is located!

Instructions on how to change preinstalled Mac OS X PHP to MAMP's PHP Installation and then install Composer Package Management


Instructions to Change PHP Installation


First, Lets find out what version of PHP we're running (To find out if it's the default version).

To do that, Within the terminal, Fire this command:

which php

This should output the path to the default PHP install which comes preinstalled by Mac OS X, by default it has to be (Assuming you've not changed it before):

/usr/bin/php

Now, We just need to swap this over to the PHP that is installed with MAMP, which is located at /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.4.10/bin (MAMP 2.1.3)

To do this, We need to edit the .bash_profile and add the MAMP version of PHP to the PATH variable.

Follow these simple steps:


  1. Within the Terminal, run vim ~/.bash_profile

  2. Type i and then paste the following at the top of the file:

     export PATH=/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.4.10/bin:$PATH
    
  3. Hit ESC, Type :wq, and hit Enter

  4. In Terminal, run source ~/.bash_profile

  5. In Terminal, type in which php again and look for the updated string. If everything was successful, It should output the new path to MAMP PHP install.

  6. In case it doesn't output the correct path, try closing the terminal window (exit fully) and open again, it should apply the changes (Restart in short).

Install Composer Package Management


Now you can fire the command to install the composer globally (So you can access it from anywhere):

$ curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php -- --install-dir=/usr/local/bin --filename=composer

You can verify your installation worked by typing the following command within the Terminal:

composer

It'll show you the current version and a list of commands you can use if the installation was successful.

How do I open a PHP file on Mac?

Open the Finder and go to /Library/WebServer/Documents/localhost . All files that are in there are processed by the local webserver (Apache and PHP, if you want to know that). Place your file in there and open your webserver and call http://localhost/YourFile.php and it will call the file YourFile.
