Use APC with MAMP

Question

I've installed on my MAC MAMP 3.0.2 and I used PHP 5.4.25 . This is my phpinfo:

I've already installed APC, and this is the APC page that MAMP show me:

I'm trying to run the follow php script:

<?php
$bar = 'BAR';
apc_store('foo', $bar);
var_dump(apc_fetch('foo'));
?>

but, when i run this script by command line I've the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function apc_store() in /Users/xxxxxxxxx/htdocs/prova.php on line 3

What's wrong?

-- Thanks

When running PHP scripts from the CLI you will need to specify the PHP binary you want to use since by default php will be the default PHP included with OS X, not the one installed with MAMP.

So instead of:

user$ php script.php

try:

user$ /Applications/MAMP/bin/php script.php

Obviously you will need to adjust the above with the path to where the MAMP PHP binary is located.
