Fatal error: You must enable the intl extension to use CakePHP. Xampp

Question

I was getting this error using xampp to run an apache server and wanted to explain how I solved it. The error is pretty self explanatory once you know the solution.

Answer 1

Here's the solution:

Enable the intl extension in the php.ini file.

Under Apache, click config.

Click php.ini.

ctrl + f to search intl to find the extension.

Remove the semi-colon to enable the extension. (This is something that wasn't self explanatory to me at first).

Save the file. Restart your apache server in xampp. The error should now be resolved.
