Install PHP Internationalization extension (Intl) on XAMPP on Mac

Installing "intl" extension on OSX.

  1. Normally, the PHP is automatically installed on OSX.
    So, if you would like to use the XAMPP, or whatever apache server, you must change the path point to XAMPP. You can check the path by using:

$ which php

You should get

/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/php 

if not, you will get

/usr/bin/php. 

This is OSX' php. So, you have to change it by using:

$ PATH="/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin:${PATH}"


  1. Now, it's time to install intl. Firstly, you need to install icu4c

$ brew install icu4c

It takes a couple of times and returns its path to you, should look something like this:

/usr/local/Cellar/icu4c/x.x.x 

  1. Next, let's install intl by using pecl

$ sudo pecl update-channels

$ sudo pecl install intl

It will prompt you to put the icu4c path.
After finish installing icu4c, put the following statement to php.ini

extension=intl.so

  1. Restart apache. and check whether it's neatly installed.

$ php -m | grep intl

should return 'intl'

That's it!

Mac 10.6 - unable to install PHP intl

I've installed Zend Server CE and everything works 100%.

I removed Zend Server CE later on, and used this instead:
http://php-osx.liip.ch/ which is specifically built for Mac OSX 10.6, and Symfony2 in mind.

This worked better for me in the end, as I'm a Netbeans user, this means I can use xdebug bundled with the liip distribution.

I found it a bit cumbersome getting xdebug installed on Zend Server CE, and also, the liip PHP installation doesn't install an additional Apache and MySQL, it uses what is already included with the OS.
