Mountain Lion-更改配置文件（php.ini）路径

Question

I'm trying to get Symfony 1.4 running on my Mac. When I type " ./symfony doctrine:build --all " to create the database, I receive the error " Couldn't located driver named mysql ". I've searched for this error and I'm told I need to uncomment this extension in php.ini. I have done this but I'm still getting the same error!

When I type "php --ini" in terminal, I get:

Configuration File (php.ini) Path: /usr/local/lib
Loaded Configuration File:         /usr/local/lib/php.ini
Scan for additional .ini files in: (none)
Additional .ini files parsed:      (none)

I want to change this path so that is uses the php.ini in XAMPP.

Any ideas on how to do this?

Answer 1

Use the PHP-binary inside your XAMP-Bundle. I would expect it to be located somewhere like /Applications/XAMPP.app/Contents/Ressources/php/bin/php . But I can not verify this path currently. So you might have to search inside the /Applications/XAMPP.app folder for it. Perhaps find /Applications/XAMPP.app -name php might help.

So you might want to add that path to your path file before calling the symfony-executable by setting PATH=/Applications/XAMPP.app/Contents/Ressources/php/bin:$PATH

Thanks for your responses, but I managed to do what I set out to in the end...

If you run "sudo pico /private/etc/paths" in Terminal, you can then add the path to php in XAMPP to the top of this file, which in my case was "/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin".

If you then restart Terminal and run "which php", you will see the new path.

Thanks
