I have installed PHP from brew and it works just fine in VSCode, but in PhpStorm I am not able to configure the interpreter in order to debug my PHP code.
In the configuration file, it says "PHP not installed" with a red icon, and the executable path is empty.
I am trying to debug just code, not a web page, so there is no need of Apache Server or other for now.
When executing php -v on terminal, I get:
PHP 8.0.17 (cli) (built: Apr 5 2022 22:43:04) ( NTS ) Copyright (c)
The PHP Group Zend Engine v4.0.17, Copyright (c) Zend Technologies
with Zend OPcache v8.0.17, Copyright (c), by Zend Technologies
which tells me that this installed correctly.
As per PhpStorm documentation you have to point to PHP executable there (which means: provide the full path). Just having php may not be enough.
Open your OS terminal and type which php (or it could be where php; this depends on the OS used). It will show the full path to the executable that gets executed when you run php in that terminal.
If you have more than one PHP version installed and want to use non-default PHP installation/version then use the path for that specific version.
Copy that full path from there (if there are more than one path then use the top most or the most desired one) and use it in the "PHP executable" field of the PHP Interpreters screen in PhpStorm.

I'm a begginer in Laravel and I installed XAMPP as local server. I noticed that my XAMPP already install php 7.4 as it's dependency. But when I tried php -v in www dir in php it shown.
'php' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable
program or batch file.
But in php directory is shown
PHP 7.4.15 (cli) (built: Feb 2 2021 20:47:45) ( ZTS Visual C++ 2017
x64 ) Copyright (c) The PHP Group Zend Engine v3.4.0, Copyright (c)

So, should I install additional php in my system for development? Should the version of the php matche with XAMPP php 7.4?
php -v will only tell you if you have PHP installed as a command line interface (PHP-CLI) which would enable you to run php code in cmd.exe or powershell. You'd normally not need this, but for reference here's how to enable it: https://stackoverflow.com/a/10753133 (mind the comment on Windows 10).
To check if PHP runs in your webserver environment (which is by default available in xampp), create a file test.php in your www folder with the following content:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
Call this file in a browser, you will get an overview of all php features available. Delete the file before you go productive, because it will also give hackers a lot of information (which you don't want).
Try to add XAMPP PHP to Environment Variables
here is an instructions for Windows 10
I'm trying to set up the PhpStorm CLI interpreter on my New M1 Mac Book. PHP 8.0 itself is running fine, but I cannot add it as a CLI Interpreter within PhpStorm.
// installation commands
brew install php
brew link php#8.0

Usually, within the PhpStorm CLI Interpreter Settings, I map just the Path to the Current PHP Installation, but this time, PhpStorm does not recognize the PHP 8.0 Interpreter.
Compared to my old setup, on this path, no bin folder is present to select.
Any ideas?
The "PHP Executable" path in PhpStorm is not for the configuration directory, it's for the "php" binary itself.
Running which php on your terminal should reveal the linked interpreter path.
It's probably something like /opt/homebrew/bin/php.
the php executable path is in /opt/homebrew/Cellar/php/8.1.7/bin/php
I am using Mac/OSX for the first time and I have installed MAMP and set PHP Standard Version as 7.1.6 but when I have run php -v command in the terminal I am getting below details:

Can you please guide how to use 7.1.6 version instead of 5.6.30.
Thanks.
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/php7.1.6/bin
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:
Within the Terminal, run
vim ~/.bash_profile
Type i and then paste the following at the top of the file:
export PATH=/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.1.6/bin:$PATH
Hit ESC, Type :wq, and hit Enter
In Terminal, run source ~/.bash_profile
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.
I am running OSX El Capitan (version 10.11.6).
I had php 5.5 installed.
Phpunit requires php5.6 and more so I tried to upgrade my php to 5.6. I couldn't do it so I gave php7 a try.
I followed these guides:
https://coolestguidesontheplanet.com/upgrade-php-on-osx/
https://php-osx.liip.ch/
Mac upgraded PHP to 5.6, but CLI php -v get 5.3.28?
My current output with php -v is :
PHP 7.0.12 (cli) (built: Nov 1 2016 10:21:11) ( NTS )

Funny thing, my output with a phpinfo(); when called from somewhere inside a Symfony project, is still PHP Version 5.5.36
Any ideas??
Terminal uses a different PHP than a HTTP server in browser. You can check what PHP you're using in CLI (command line interface) by this terminal command:
$ which php
I don't know if you use any AMP stack (like MAMP). They include their own PHP, so you need to update them in order to have a different PHP version in browser.
Maybe you can use this trick to determine what PHP versions you use in browser / CLI: Find the php.ini path in your phpinfo() output and compare it with this terminal command:
$ php -i | grep php.ini
It's always a good idea to use the debug URL to troubleshoot your Symfony projects; to use this, simply append:
app_dev.php
For example if your route was like http://myhome/, then you would use:
http://myhome/app_dev.php
Then on the bottom of your browser you will have the Symfony debug bar. In the bottom right corner, the version of Symofny is shown, an if you move your mouse over it, you will see the version of PHP; plus also a link to "View phpinfo()". You can click on it to view the full PHP information, including where the PHP file is located.
The PHP config file used (shown on the phpinfo() page) is shown by:
Loaded Configuration File
Hope that helps!
I have a configuration problem about my php installation on my mac os x 10.9.2
If i do
php --version
on my terminal i get following output:
PHP 5.3.27 (cli) (built: Dec 4 2013 06:25:36)
Copyright (c) 1997-2013 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2013 Zend Technologies
while if i try to check php version via phpinfo(), i get following
PHP Version 5.4.24
so i have two php different version installed, 5.3.27 for cli mode e 5.4.24 on server side.
Also if i try to change configuration in php.ini, at path that i see on phpinfo() response (/private/etc/php.ini), after restart apache, i don't see nothing change; so i think that php.ini maybe is in another place.
How can i do to fix my php installation to have only one php version?
If you want it 5.4 on the CLI also, try moving the one at /opt/local/bin/php out of $PATH.
Normally php lives at /usr/bin/php, so it should find that one when you move the one at /opt/local/bin/php out of $PATH. Maybe echo $PATH shows /opt/local/bin/ before /usr/bin/ for you?
