Troubling Running PHP 5.6 application locally on mac

Question

First off, I apologize for the lack of details. Due to the nature of my issue I'm not sure what details are needed to solve the problem.

A few details:

I'm running the newest version of mac osx and I'm running php5.6 (needed for this code base)

I'm getting the following error from my php application:

Fatal error: Class 'Memcached' not found in

I've scoured the web for a solution, but no luck yet. Any help/guidance would be greatly appreciated. If you need any other details, please let me know and I'll be happy to provide them.

Answer 1

Do you have Homebrew?

$ brew install memcached php56-memcached

And then in your /etc/php.ini you should append extension=memcached.so .

If that doesn't work, try

$ brew remove php56-memcached
$ brew reinstall php56 --enable-maintainer-zts --build-from-source php56-memcached
