I've been trying to set up a web application for over 10 hours now
The most difficult part in this was setting up Memcached
I got it working with apache using php found here:
/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/php
but then I found out the routing was broken and needed nginx so I managed to somehow configure the nginx.conf but it is not letting me install Memcached now.
location ~ \.php$ {
root html;
include fastcgi.conf;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
#fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /Applications/XAMPP/htdocs/rc$fastcgi_script_name;
#include fastcgi_params;
}
This is my nginx.conf and the php version that is ran when opening this page localhost is the one that was installed using brew. This php version runs when I use sudo brew services start php71 but this php version doesn't let me install memcached, I have added the memcached.so to the extensions folder found in phpinfo() and added the extension=memcached.so line in php.ini
There are 2 ways to "fix" this issue: one is somehow getting memcached to work on php71 with brew OR somehow making brew use the other php found in XAMPP
