Php-intl installation on XAMPP

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

Solution

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-*
