Your version of PHP does NOT have the intl extension loaded [duplicate] - php

Question

I need to use the extension intl on my mac with XAMPP.
So I have followed this links:
Php-intl installation on XAMPP for Mac Lion 10.8
http://lvarayut.blogspot.it/2013/09/installing-intl-extension-in-xampp.html
I restart always my apache server but isn't installed the extension. Because if I launch:
php -m | grep intl #should return 'intl'
return empty
The command that I can't launch without it is for composer and cakephp like this:
composer create-project --prefer-dist -s dev cakephp/app cakephp3
Return me this error:
Installing dependencies (including require-dev)
Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.
Problem 1
- Installation request for cakephp/cakephp 3.0.*-dev -> satisfiable by cakephp/cakephp[3.0.x-dev].
- cakephp/cakephp 3.0.x-dev requires ext-intl * -> the requested PHP extension intl is missing from your system.
Problem 2
- cakephp/cakephp 3.0.x-dev requires ext-intl * -> the requested PHP extension intl is missing from your system.
- cakephp/bake dev-master requires cakephp/cakephp 3.0.x-dev -> satisfiable by cakephp/cakephp[3.0.x-dev].
- Installation request for cakephp/bake dev-master -> satisfiable by cakephp/bake[dev-master].
So I need to solve the problem of ext-intl with the extension intl.
Can someone help me with this problem?
How can I install this extension?
Thanks

Answer 1

These below steps helped me, Just in case if you are using OSX
Steps from http://www.phpzce.com/blog/view/15/installing-intl-package-on-your-mac-with-xampp
Check which php path is set i.e.
root$: which php
If you are using xampp on your mac it should be
/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/php
but if its
/usr/bin/php
you need to change your OSx php
root$: PATH="/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin:${PATH}"
Install icu4c
root$: brew install icu4c
Install Intl via PECL
root$: sudo pecl update-channels
root$: sudo pecl install intl
You can check if Intl was installed successfully
root$: php -m | grep intl #should return 'intl'
Done
============================
Note:
From extensions list in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/etc/php.ini file Add / Uncomment extension=intl.so line. And restart Apache. Thanks #pazhyn
Before installing "intl" you have to install Autoconf if you have not installed it. Thanks #Digant
via Homebrew brew install autoconf automake
or
by running below commands
curl -OL http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/autoconf/autoconf-latest.tar.gz
tar xzf autoconf-latest.tar.gz
cd autoconf-*
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
sudo make install
cd ..
rm -r autoconf-*

Answer 2

I had issues with intl when using Moodle, which I fixed by doing the following:
Re-run the XAMPP installer (if you don't have the installer on hand, download it from here) and tick the "XAMPP Developer Files"
Use your terminal and go into XAMPP's binary folder $ cd /Applications/XAMPP/bin
Use PHP's package manager to install intl by running $ sudo ./pecl install intl This should compile some things, and if successful, the installation should complete with:
Build process completed successfully
Installing '/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20131226/intl.so'
install ok: channel://pecl.php.net/intl-3.0.0
configuration option "php_ini" is not set to php.ini location
You should add "extension=intl.so" to php.ini
$ cd ../etc There you will have your php.ini to which you have to add extension=intl.so On my system I appended the line after line 959, which you can find by searching for php_intl
Finally restart your Apache web server from the XAMPP GUI.
Hope this works for you!

I had the same problem with XAMPP.
I tried several answers but without success.
Could solve lowering an alternative library http://php-osx.liip.ch/.
This library php, comes already installed intl and several other package.
After downloading went to httpd.conf in xampp and LoadModule php5_module pointed to these packages in /usr/local/php5/libphp5.so
