How to enable PHP on Mac OS Leopard

Posted by Michael Dale on Sat, 27 Oct 2007 4:42 PM

To enable php:

open terminal
cd /etc/
sudo cp php.ini.default php.ini
cd /private/etc/apache2/
sudo nano httpd.conf
uncomment the two modules: php5_module and fastcgi_module. They were at line 114 and 115 for me.
Use ctrl and o to save
reload apache (can be done from system preferences).

Step 4 should say 'httpd.conf' instead of 'httpd.config'
