无法使用Homebrew在Mac OS Mavericks上安装PHP

Question

I'm pretty noob in terminal, so I wanted to start learning PHP and Laravel 4, and I have set up Apache server and installed Homebrew to install all other packages of PHP and composted and so on, but when I'm trying to install PHP on Homebrew, I always get an error:

This is the command I tried to install with:

brew install php53

I'm getting the following error message:

make: *** [sapi/cli/php] Error 1
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make: *** [libs/libphp5.bundle] Error 1

I always run brew doctor :

brew doctor

Which produces the following warning:

Warning: You have an outdated version of /usr/bin/install_name_tool installed. This will cause binary package installations to fail. This can happen if you install osx-gcc-installer or RailsInstaller. To restore it, you must reinstall OS X or restore the binary from the OS packages.

What am I doing wrong? How can I fix this problem?

Answer 1

It seems like others have had this issue. One suggestion was to use

xcode-select --install

I found that here: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-php/issues/1172

Answer 2

If you've only just installed xcode tools, you might also be getting an earlier error stating that you haven't accepted xcode's license requirements. Try entering the command:

xcodebuild -license

and follow the instructions to accept the xcode T&C.
